Criminal Law, Sex Offender Registration Act (SORA)

A SINGLE PROMOTING PRISON CONTRABAND CONVICTION FOUR YEARS BEFORE DID NOT SUPPORT A TEN POINT ASSESSMENT FOR UNSATISFACTORY CONDUCT; RISK LEVEL REDUCED FROM TWO TO ONE (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department determined the 10 point assessment for unsatisfactory conduct was not supported and reduced defendant’s risk level from two to one:

… [T]he record does not contain clear and convincing evidence to support the assessment of 10 points under risk factor 13, for “unsatisfactory” conduct while confined, based upon his conviction of the class A misdemeanor of promoting prison contraband in the second degree (Penal Law § 205.20). This conviction constituted the sole act of misconduct while confined cited by the People, and it occurred approximately four years before the SORA hearing, prior to the defendant’s transfer to State prison. Since the defendant’s misconduct was neither recent nor repeated, the assessment of points for that misdemeanor was not supported by the record … . People v Hernandez, 2020 NY Slip Op 05540, Second Dept 10-7-20
