People v. Blair
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided June 6, 1996
228 A.D.2d 720; 643 N.Y.2d 430; 643 N.Y.S.2d 430; 1996 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 6387
People v. Blair

Opinion of the Court

In satisfaction of a three-count indictment, defendant pleaded guilty to rape in the third degree and was sentenced to a prison term of 1 to 4 years. He argues that the sentence is harsh and excessive. Given the nature of the crime and the vulnerability of the victim, we find this argument to be unpersuasive. Accordingly, we decline to disturb the sentence imposed by County Court.

Cardona, P. J., Crew III, White, Peters and Spain, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
