People v. Sidbury
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
1Opinion of the CourtMugglin, J.
Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court (Keegan, J.), rendered March 27, 2002 in Albany County, upon a verdict convicting defendant of the crime of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the third degree.
On this appeal, defendant makes three arguments. His weight/insufficiency of evidence argument is that the evidence introduced at trial through a state police forensic scientist, identified as a white powdery substance containing cocaine, was not the substance allegedly purchased from defendant which was described as a “hard chunky white substance” and denoted as “crack cocaine”…
