People v. Williams
Opinion of the Court
The court properly denied defendant’s suppression motion. The hearing evidence established that the police had reasonable
The prompt showup identification, conducted near the scene of the crime, was not unduly suggestive. The manner in which the showup was conducted was justified by the exigencies of the case and the interest of prompt identification (see People v Love, 57 NY2d 1023, 1024 [1982]). There is no evidence that, in making their identifications, the victims were influenced by each other or by other persons on the street.
We perceive no basis for reducing the sentence.
Defendant’s remaining claims are either identical or substantially similar to arguments this Court rejected on a codefendant’s appeal (People v Banks, 66 AD3d 485 [2009], lv denied 13 NY3d 905 [2009]), and there is no basis to reach a different result. Concur — Tom, J.E, Catterson, Renwick, Freedman and Manzanet-Daniels, JJ.
