CARLEY, Presiding Justice.

After a jury trial, Matthew Colzie was found guilty of the malice murder of Torrence Brown, attempted armed robbery, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. The trial court entered judgments of conviction on those guilty verdicts and sentenced Colzie to life imprisonment for murder, a concurrent term of five years for attempted armed robbery, and a consecutive five-year term for the weapons charge. A motion for new trial was denied, and Colzie appeals pursuant to the grant of an out-of-time appeal.*

1. Construed most strongly in support of the verdicts, the evidence shows that, in an apartment parking lot, Colzie approached Willie Johnson, who was sitting in his truck, and told him that Colzie was about to commit a robbery and that Johnson might want to leave. Johnson did not leave and instead witnessed Colzie walk up to the victim's car, point a rifle at him, and order him to get out of the car. When the victim pushed the gun back out of the driver's side window and said that he did not have anything, Colzie fatally shot the victim in the chest. Johnson later identified Colzie within seconds of being shown a photographic lineup.

Colzie attacks the credibility of Johnson and of another witness, and also argues that there was no forensics evidence such as DNA, fingerprints, or gunshot residue and that the murder weapon was not recovered.

Reeves v. State, 288 Ga. 545, 546(1), 705 S.E.2d 159 (2011). Moreover, Johnson's testimony was corroborated by other evidence, including certain cell phone records and testimony indicating that he remained in his vehicle during commission of the crimes.

Colzie further argues that, whether or not his guilt was proved beyond a reasonable doubt, the evidence was sufficiently close to warrant the trial court to exercise its discretion in granting a new trial. However, "[t]he appellate courts do not have the same discretion to order new trials as is granted to trial courts in OCGA § 5-5-21. [Cit.]" Willis v. State, 263 Ga. 597, 598(1), 436 S.E.2d 204 (1993).

Mack v. State, 272 Ga. 415, 416-417(1), 529 S.E.2d 132 (2000). "Contrary to [Colzie's] contention, the appellate courts do not resolve conflicts in trial testimony nor do they weigh the evidence on appeal. [Cit.]" Willis v. State, supra. Viewing the evidence summarized above in the light most favorable to the verdicts, we conclude that a rational trier of fact could find Colzie guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of the crimes for which he was convicted. Jackson v. Virginia, supra; Reeves v. State, supra.

2. Colzie contends that the trial court erred by permitting the lead detective to testify to the contents of out-of-court statements given to him by four State's witnesses.

With respect to three of the witnesses, Colzie raised only a hearsay objection.

Moore v. State, 280 Ga.App. 894, 897(4), 635 S.E.2d 253 (2006). See also Talley v. State, 269 Ga.App. 712, 714(4), 605 S.E.2d 108 (2004).

Johnson was the other witness whose out-of-court statements were admitted through the detective's testimony and which Colzie claims constituted improper bolstering because they were not admissible as prior consistent statements. However, when the prosecutor asked the detective what he learned from his interview with Johnson, defense counsel objected not only on hearsay grounds, but also on the ground of improper bolstering. Thus, it is clear that the issue which Colzie raises on appeal has not been waived. Compare Moore v. State, supra; Talley v. State, supra.

After the trial court overruled the defense objection, the detective repeated Johnson's out-of-court statements, effectively summarizing much of Johnson's earlier testimony. The State argues that the prior statements were properly admitted because Johnson's credibility had been attacked. "`"(A) witness's veracity is placed in issue so as to permit the introduction of a prior consistent statement only if affirmative charges of recent fabrication, improper influence, or improper motive are raised during cross-examination." (Cits.)' [Cit.]" Moon v. State, 288 Ga. 508, 511(4), 705 S.E.2d 649 (2011). On cross-examination, Johnson was asked whether he had told defense counsel just a week earlier that it had been too long for Johnson to describe the shooter, and Johnson answered negatively.

Blackmon v. State, 272 Ga. 858, 859(2), 536 S.E.2d 148 (2000). See also Hall v. State, 287 Ga. 755, 758(3), 699 S.E.2d 321 (2010); Dorsey v. State, 252 Ga.App. 33, 34(1), 555 S.E.2d 498 (2001). Therefore, the cross-examination of Johnson constituted the requisite attack on his veracity. "`To be admissible to refute the allegation of recent fabrication, improper influence, or improper motive, the prior statement must "predate the alleged fabrication, influence, or motive.'" [Cit.]" Mister v. State, 286 Ga. 303, 306(4), 687 S.E.2d 471 (2009). In this case, the alleged recent fabrication occurred within the week preceding trial, which clearly was after Johnson made the prior consistent statements to the detective. See Davis v. State, 303 Ga.App. 799, 802(5), 694 S.E.2d 381 (2010). Accordingly, the trial court did not err in allowing the detective to testify regarding those statements. Hall v. State, supra; Blackmon v. State, supra; Davis v. State, supra.

3. Colzie urges that the trial court erred by excluding the testimony of his investigator that Johnson had pending felony charges.

Noellien v. State, 298 Ga.App. 47, 49-50(3)(a)(i), 679 S.E.2d 75 (2009). A criminal defendant does have "`the right to cross-examine a witness concerning pending criminal charges against the witness for purposes of exposing a witness' motivation in testifying, e.g., bias, partiality, or agreement between the government and the witness. (Cits.)'" Mays v. State, 279 Ga. 372, 373(2), 613 S.E.2d 612 (2005). However, defense counsel never attempted to cross-examine Johnson in this manner.

Colzie further contends that trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance by failing properly to cross-examine Johnson regarding his pending charges.

Allen v. State, 286 Ga. 392, 398(5), 687 S.E.2d 799 (2010). See also Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 104 S.Ct. 2052, 80 L.Ed.2d 674 (1984). Upon appellate review of that claim, "we accept the trial court's factual findings and credibility determinations unless clearly erroneous, but we independently apply the legal principles to the facts. [Cits.]" Suggs v. State, 272 Ga. 85, 88(4), 526 S.E.2d 347 (2000). Trial counsel testified at the hearing on the motion for new trial that Johnson had pending misdemeanor charges and a dead-docketed felony charge but that she did not know the proper way to impeach him therewith. However,

Sapp v. State, 263 Ga.App. 122, 123-124, 587 S.E.2d 267 (2003). Thus, no evidence was presented on motion for new trial to show that the trial court would have allowed "cross-examination regarding this subject. Consequently, neither deficient performance by counsel nor prejudice to [Colzie] has been shown." Parks v. State, 240 Ga.App. 45, 47(2)(a), 522 S.E.2d 532 (1999).

4. Colzie also enumerates as error the trial court's failure to give a jury charge on the reliability of eyewitness identification.

At the charge conference, the trial court declined to give Colzie's requested charge on eyewitness identification and stated that it would give the pattern charge. However, the pattern charge was omitted inadvertently. After the trial court finished charging the jury, Colzie did not object to that omission, and instead objected only to the decision not to give his own requested charge on eyewitness identification. Thus, "the specific grounds [Colzie] raises on appeal were not raised at trial during the charge conference or after the charge was given to the jury." Dooley v. State, 221 Ga.App. 245, 246(3), 470 S.E.2d 803 (1996). See also Green v. State, 170 Ga.App. 806-807(1), 318 S.E.2d 513 (1984). Because Colzie was tried after the effective date of the 2007 amendment to OCGA § 17-8-58 and did not specifically object to the jury charge on any grounds set forth in this appeal before the jury retired to deliberate, he has waived his right to urge error in the charge. Collier v. State, 288 Ga. 756, 758-759(4), 707 S.E.2d 102 (2011); Howard v. State, 288 Ga. 741, 743(2), 744(3), 746(6), 707 S.E.2d 80 (2011).

Moreover, we find no reversible error, much less any "plain error" pursuant to OCGA § 17-8-58(b), assuming that analysis under that provision is proper in this case. See Collier v. State, supra; Howard v. State, supra. Johnson was already acquainted with Colzie prior to the murder. See Hicks v. State, 287 Ga. 260, 264(4), 695 S.E.2d 195 (2010); Conway v. State, 281 Ga. 685, 689(2), 642 S.E.2d 673 (2007). Furthermore, the trial court instructed the jury that the State has the burden of proving the identity of the perpetrator beyond a reasonable doubt and that it would be the jury's duty to acquit if it had any reasonable doubt that the defendant has been sufficiently identified as the perpetrator. See Hicks v. State, supra. We thus find it highly probable that the omission of a charge on the reliability of eyewitness identification did not contribute to the verdict. See Hicks v. State, supra.

Judgments affirmed.

All the Justices concur, except NAHMIAS, J., who concurs specially.

NAHMIAS, Justice, concurring specially.

For the reasons given in my special concurrence in Collier v. State, 288 Ga. 756, 707 S.E.2d 102 (2011), I believe that OCGA § 17-8-58(b) mandates that appellate courts apply plain error review to enumerated errors regarding jury charges that were not objected to at trial as required by OCGA § 17-8-58(a). I therefore do not agree that we should merely "assum[e]" that plain error review is proper in this case, as the majority does in Division 4, see Maj. Op. at 119, thereby again leaving the conflict in our case law on this issue unresolved. Accordingly, I do not join that portion of the majority opinion, although I join the remainder of the opinion and the judgment.
