State v. Ligon, 206 N.C. App. 458 (Aug. 17, 2010)
In a sexual exploitation of a minor and indecent liberties case, the court rejected the defendant’s argument that a testifying detective’s statement that the defendant’s explanation of the events was not consistent with photographic evidence constituted an improper opinion as to credibility of a witness. The court concluded that no improper vouching occurred.
