People v. Dudley
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York
1Opinion of the Court
It was within the province of the jury to assess the credibility of defendant’s alibi witnesses in the face of conflicting evidence adduced by the People (People v Bigelow, 106 AD2d 448; People v Clark, 70 AD2d 683). We do not find, based upon the record, that the jury’s verdict was irrational (People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), particularly where two of the three alibi witnesses could not specifically recall the events of the dates in question and the third witness did not come forward with his potentially exculpatory evidence until the time of trial (see, People v Dawson, 50 NY2d 311, 321).
