We reject defendant's argument that his confession should have been suppressed at the Huntley hearing because it was obtained as a result of an impermissible promise made by law enforcement personnel. We find no evidence that County Court abused its considerable discretion by crediting the contrary testimony of the investigating police officer. Because defendant's statement to the police was voluntary, there is no basis for reversing defendant's conviction.
