RESTREPO v. STATE
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
Dec 13, 1989
PER CURIAM.
It was improper closing argument for the prosecutor to state, without support in the record, that a witness was absent "maybe because he is afraid to testify against this man." Although the defense objection should have been sustained, we conclude that the error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. See State v. DiGuilio, 491 So.2d 1129 (Fla. 1986). No reversible error has been shown with respect to the other points on appeal.
Affirmed.
