Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's contention that he was deprived of a fair trial by certain comments made by the prosecutor during summation is unpreserved for appellate review, as he failed to object to the comments ( see CPL 470.05; People v Amico, 78 AD3d 1190; People v Torres, 71 AD3d 1063). In any event, to the extent that any of the challenged remarks were improper, they did not deprive the defendant of a fair trial ( see People v Ray ford, 80 AD3d 780; People v Cruz, 79 AD3d 1145; People v Rudd, 62 AD3d 729).

The sentence imposed was not excessive ( see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80, 83).

The defendant's remaining contention is without merit.
