Opinion

PER CURIAM.

We hold that the argument made by the district attorney was error. However, because the trial judge forcefully sustained defendant’s objection and gave an appropriate curative instruction and because of the strength of the State’s case and the lack of any real defense proffered by defendant, we are satisfied that the error was not prejudicial. We, therefore, affirm the decision of the Court of Appeals.

Affirmed.
