Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 N.Y.2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. The complainant's testimony was sufficiently corroborated by the testimony of her mother and half brother. Their testimony was in harmony with the testimony of the complainant and furnished the necessary connection between the defendant and the crime (see, People v Ahlers, 98 A.D.2d 821). Additionally, the defendant's own statement, admitting to the acts complained of, provided further corroboration of the complainant's testimony (see, People v Holdridge, 103 A.D.2d 894).
Finally, in light of the unavailability of the uncalled witness, we conclude that the defendant was not entitled to a missing witness charge (see, People v Gonzalez, 68 N.Y.2d 424; People v Walker, 105 A.D.2d 720). Bracken, J.P., Lawrence, Kunzeman and Spatt, JJ., concur.
