Court of Appeals of New York

Defendant's conviction for various sex crimes is affirmed, where: 1) the People's expert's testimony on the subject of child sexual abuse accommodation syndrome was not adequately limited because certain hypothetical questions posed by the prosecutor improperly bolstered the People's proof that defendant was the perpetrator; but 2) the error was harmless, as the evidence of defendant's guilt was otherwise overwhelming.
