People v. Pineras, 113 A.D.3d 489, 978 N.Y.2d 681 (N.Y. Ct. App. 2014).

Opinion

The verdict was supported by legally sufficient evidence and was not against the weight of the evidence (People v Danielson, 9 NY3d 342 [2007]). There is no basis for disturbing the jury’s credibility determinations. There was nonaccomplice testimony and documentary evidence that satisfied the standards for corroboration of accomplice testimony (see People v Reome, 15 [490]*490NY3d 188, 192-193 [2010]). Furthermore, defendant’s behavior after the theft evinced a consciousness of guilt, and provided further assurances of the reliability of the accomplice testimony. Concur — Mazzarelli, J.P., Friedman, DeGrasse, Richter and Manzanet-Daniels, JJ.
