Plaintiff-Appellee,
v
No. 212136
Wayne Circuit Court
Criminal Division
LC No. 97-008900
ANTDWELE NASAOR,
Defendant-Appellant.
Before: Wilder, P.J., and Sawyer and Markey, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Defendant appeals as of right his bench trial conviction for attempted possession with intent to
deliver less than fifty grams of cocaine, MCL 333.7401(2)(a)(iv); MSA 14.15(7401)(2)(a)(iv). We
affirm.
Defendant’s conviction was primarily based on the testimony of a Detroit police officer, who
observed defendant flagging motorists, and engaging in conduct consistent with a narcotics transaction.
After defendant was arrested, officers searched the area defendant frequented, and retrieved a bag
containing narcotics.
On appeal, defendant argues that the prosecutor failed to prove he was guilty beyond a
reasonable doubt due to inconsistencies in the officers’ testimony regarding his location and the
movement of defendant. The trial court found that the officer was a credible witness. There is no
showing that the trial court clearly erred in making this determination. In re Forfeiture of $25,505, 220
Mich App 572, 582; 560 NW2d 341 (1996). Any inconsistencies were minor and did not contradict
the officer’s testimony that he was able to observe the entire sequence of events surrounding the
narcotics transaction.
Affirmed.
