Bruce Donald Godschalk appeals from the June 26, 1995 order denying his petition to obtain DNA testing.1 We affirm.
In 1987, appellant was convicted of two counts each of rape and burglary. He was sentenced to an aggregate term of imprisonment of ten to twenty years. The rapes occurred in the same apartment complex. The record indicates that on August 16, 1986, at 10:00 p.m., appellant exposed himself to another woman in the same complex. This woman identified appellant as her assailant in a photographic array.
The convictions at issue stem from the following events. On July 13, 1986, at 12:45 a.m., appellant entered the townhouse of the first rape victim through a window. The victim was asleep, and appellant entered her bed, placed his hand over mouth, said that he did not want to harm the victim, and told her that he wanted only to have sex. The victim struggled unsuccessfully. Appellant placed the victim on her stomach then inserted his fingers and penis into her vagina.
On September 8, 1986, appellant entered the second victim’s apartment at 2:45 a.m. while she was asleep. He awoke her, placed his hand over her mouth, and instructed her he would hurt her if she screamed. Appellant turned the victim on to her stomach and had vaginal intercourse with her. At the time, the victim was menstruating, and appellant removed her tampon prior to intercourse. He told the victim several times in a soft voice that he needed love. He then exited the *427apartment. This victim was able to identify appellant from a photographic array.
The convictions rest in part on a confession appellant gave to police. He confessed to raping both of the women and also admitted that he had removed the tampon of the second victim, a detail of this rape which had not been released to the public. Appellant also described the position of the victims during the rapes, another detail which had not been released to the public. Appellant unsuccessfully sought to have the confession suppressed by the trial court, recanted his confession at trial, and was unsuccessful in obtaining suppression of the confession on appeal.
On February 24, 1995, appellant filed a petition to obtain DNA testing. After a hearing conducted on June 23, 1995, the petition was denied. This appeal followed.
On the authority of Commonwealth v. Brison, 421 Pa.Super. 442, 618 A.2d 420 (1992), and Commonwealth v. Reese, 444 Pa.Super. 38, 663 A.2d 206 (1995), appellant contends his petition was denied improperly. We disagree and affirm. Under the decisions in Brison and Reese, a petition for post-conviction DNA testing will be granted where a conviction rests largely on identification evidence and where advanced technology could definitely establish the accused’s innocence.
Herein, appellant’s conviction rests largely on his own confession which contains details of the rapes which were not available to the public. One of the victims did not identify him at all. As appellant has failed to satisfy the first leg of the Brison standard, we affirm the denial of his petition.
Order affirmed.
