J., Martuscello, Brennan and Shapiro, JJ., concur; Cohalan, J., dissents and votes to reverse and order a new trial, with the following memorandum: The ineptitude of defense counsel (People v LaBree, 34 NY2d 257), plus the improper trial tactics of the prosecutrix, and her inflammatory remarks in summation, all combined to deprive defendant of a fair trial. I would reverse, on the law and as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, and order a new trial (People v Garcia, 40 AD2d 983).
