Court of Appeals of New York
People v. Perkins, 111
Defendant's attempted murder and robbery convictions are affirmed where: 1) the testimony of the detective in charge of the police lineup at issue dispelled any notion the jurors might otherwise have harbored that the police already possessed the photograph of defendant shown to the victim that day; and 2) the trial judge did not abuse her discretion when she rejected defendant's claim that the People would suffer no prejudice because the victim eventually identified defendant in a lineup in July of 2003.
