17-YEAR-OLD’S ARE STATUTORILY EXCLUDED FROM THE CLASS OF VICTIMS UNDER PENAL LAW 263.11, TO WHICH DEFENDANT PLED GUILTY; RISK-LEVEL REDUCED FROM TWO TO ONE (FOURTH DEPT).

​The Fourth Department, reducing defendant’s SORA risk-level from two to one, determined the 17-year-old involved in the offense was statutorily excluded from the class of victims:

… [T]he court erred in assessing 20 points for the number of victims under risk factor 3 … . The court based its assessment on a determination that a 17-year-old was a victim of defendant’s conduct. However, 17-year-olds are statutorily excluded from the class of victims under Penal Law § 263.11, to which defendant pleaded guilty. When those points are removed, defendant has a total of 60 points, making him a presumptive level one risk. People v Cockrell, 2024 NY Slip Op 02439, Fourth Dept 5-3-24

Practice Point: 17-year-old’s are statutorily excluded from the class of victims under Penal Law 263.11.
