State of New Jersey, Plaintiff-Respondent v. Dorian Pressley, A/k/a Justin Belton

April 19, 2018232 N.J. 587

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the defendant's convictions, holding that a pretrial Wade hearing was not required for the police officer's identification and that the prosecutor's summation remarks did not constitute reversible error. Justice Albin filed a concurring opinion urging a rule that any suggestive photographic identification of a police witness should trigger a Wade hearing.
