Description

The defendant was convicted following a ""buy and bust"" operation, during which he sold five vials of cocaine to an undercover officer. At summation, the prosecutor challenged the credibility of the defendant who had taken the stand referring to ""tailored testimony"" and defendant's story"" three times. Calling the defense a ""story"" falls within acceptable bounds. (People v. Rivera, 158 A.D.2d 344), the use of the term ""tailored testimony"" under these circumstances constitutes harmless error, (People v. Figueroa, 555 N.Y.S.2d 752, appeal denied, 76 N.Y.2d 856). We discern no error with respect to the court's Sandoval ruling.
