Opinion
December 1, 1997
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Brill, J.).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's contention that the prosecutor made improper remarks during summation is unpreserved for appellate review ( see, CPL 470.05; People v. Tevaha, 84 N.Y.2d 879; People v. Tardbania, 72 N.Y.2d 852, 853). In any event, while the contested remarks would have been better left unsaid, in light of the overwhelming evidence of the defendant's guilt, any error in the prosecution's summation was harmless ( see, People v. Crimmins, 36 N.Y.2d 230, 242; People v. Ortiz, 239 A.D.2d 611; People v. Melendez, 143 A.D.2d 946, 947).
