Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the People and recognizing that credibility is for the trier of facts (People v Malizia, 62 NY2d 755, 757, cert denied 469 US 932), we find that the evidence was legally sufficient. Furthermore, the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence (People v Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490). We also find that the sentence was fair and proper under the circumstances. Concur—Murphy, P. J., Sullivan, Ross and Asch, JJ.
