Commonwealth v. Imbruglia
343 N.E.2d 160, 4 Mass. App. Ct. 787, 1976 Mass. App. LEXIS 564
Opinion
The remark made by the prosecutor in the presence of the jury at the close of the evidence was unfortunate at best. The judge promptly and forcefully gave clear and correct curative instructions. Compare Commonwealth v. D’Ambra, 357 Mass. 260, 262 (1970). The evidence of Imbruglia’s guilt was particularly strong, and we are not persuaded that the remark, when considered in the light of the instructions, contributed to the verdict.
Judgment affirmed.
