WHERE CONVICTIONS UNDER MULITPLE INDICTMENTS COME UP FOR REVIEW IN THE SAME SORA HEARING, THE BOARD OF EXAMINERS OF SEX OFFENDERS SHOULD PREPARE A SINGLE RISK ASSESSMENT INSTRUMENT ENCOMPASSING ALL THE OFFENSES (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department noted that where a defendant has been convicted of sex offenses under multiple indictment, Board of Examiners of Sex Offenders (the Board) should create one risk assessment instrument (RAI) for all the offenses:

… [W]here, as here, convictions under multiple indictments come up for disposition at the same SORA hearing, the Board should prepare a single RAI that “should be completed on the basis of all of the crimes” that are the subject of the disposition, considering them all together as the “Current Offense[s]” (Sex Offender Registration Act: Risk Assessment Guidelines and Commentary at 5-6 [2006] …), and the court should render a single SORA risk assessment determination … . People v Songster, 2022 NY Slip Op 04570, Second Dept 7-13-22

Practice Points: Where sex-offense convictions under multiple indictments are the subject of the same SORA hearing, the Board should prepare a singe risk assessment instrument (RAI) encompassing all the offenses.
