[888 NYS2d 757]

Opinion:

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, he was not denied a fair trial by the prosecutor's comments in her opening remarks and summation (see People v Martin, 54 AD3d 776 [2008]). Fisher, J.P., Covello, Santucci and Balkin, JJ., concur.
