Defendant was convicted of a vicious assault upon his former fiancée. We find no merit to defendant's claim that the prosecutor's opening statement was inflammatory. The prosecutor's remarks were a fair outline of the stark facts. Had defendant preserved his similar claim that the prosecutor's summation was prejudicial, we would also find no error. The issue, however, has not been preserved as a matter of law, and we decline to reach it in the interest of justice.
