… [C]ertain remarks made by the County Court demonstrate that, in imposing sentence, it improperly speculated and considered that the defendant had committed additional similar crimes for which she had not been apprehended. Consequently, the defendant must be resentenced … . People v Jeffriesel, 2022 NY Slip Op 06012, Second Dept 10-2622
