Opinion
March 6, 1990
Appeal from the Supreme Court, New York County, Richard C. Failla, J.
We reject defendant's argument that the prosecutor, on summation, improperly vouched for the credibility of the People's witness. The comments in question were appropriate since responsive to attacks made on the witness's credibility by defense counsel in his own summation, and did not amount to vouching (People v Geddes, 134 A.D.2d 279, 280; People v Bailey, 155 A.D.2d 262; compare, People v Roman, 150 A.D.2d 252).
Concur — Murphy, P.J., Carro, Milonas, Kassal and Wallach, JJ.
