Conduct in Prison Justified Upward Departure (SORA)

The Third Department upheld the SORA court’s upward departure from the SORA guidelines based upon the defendant’s exhibitionist sexual conduct in prison.  The Third Department wrote:

Even if, under factor 13, defendant had been assessed the full 20 points for unsatisfactory conduct while confined “with sexual misconduct” (for a total of 55 points, still a presumptive level I), as he urges should have occurred instead of an upward departure, this factor still would not adequately take into consideration the public nature of this conduct and the use of children’s images  to facilitate his arousal. People v Walker, 513776, 3rd Dept, 4-11-13
