THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. CLIFFORD JAMAL, Appellant.

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Second Department.

Decided July 7, 2003.


Ordered that the judgment is reversed, as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, and a new trial is ordered.

Although the defendant failed to preserve for appellate review his objections to many of the prosecutor's improper comments during summation, we nevertheless reach his claims
