Respondent, v Kevin Wyche, Appellant. |
Seymour W. James, Jr., The Legal Aid Society, New York (Frances A. Gallagher of counsel), for appellant.
Robert T. Johnson, District Attorney, Bronx (Marianne Stracquadanio of counsel), for respondent.
Judgment, Supreme Court, Bronx County (Denis J. Boyle, J., at suppression hearing;
Edgar G. Walker, J., at plea and sentencing), rendered February 16, 2012, convicting
defendant of two counts of robbery in the second degree, and sentencing him to
concurrent terms of 3
Regardless of whether defendant's waiver of appeal was enforceable, we find that the court properly denied defendant's motion to suppress identification testimony. The People overcame the presumption of suggestiveness resulting from the nonproduction of evidence of the computerized photo arrays shown to a witness (see People v Holley, 26 NY3d 514 [2015]). The detective's testimony about the photo manager system and the procedures he employed was substantially similar to the testimony given in Holley. Defendant has not established that the clothing he wore in his photograph would cause him to be singled out, especially since the witness's description of the robber did not mention clothing.
