Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County (Herbert Altman, J.).
The trial court properly admitted the conditional examinations. The People satisfied their obligation under CPL 660.60 (2) by filing the tapes and transcripts before the start of the trial. We also find that defendants' guilt was established beyond a reasonable doubt, the evidence showing that they systematically stole the life savings of their victims (see, People v. Antilla, 77 N.Y.2d 853; People v. Spiegel, 48 N.Y.2d 647). Defendants' larcenous intent and their victims' lack of consent is clear from the pattern of transactions. We find no merit in defendant Lucille Cray's retrospective analysis of her trial counsel's efforts (People v. Baldi, 54 N.Y.2d 137, 146).
