People v. Crawford

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Sep 14, 1992
186 A.D.2d 144 (N.Y. App. Div. 1992)

Opinion

September 14, 1992

Appeal from the County Court, Dutchess County (King, J.).


Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

The hearing court properly denied suppression of the defendant's statements to the police. The defendant was fully advised of his Miranda rights, he understood those rights, and he voluntarily chose to waive those rights and speak with the police. The defendant's waiver was not rendered involuntary as a result of the police informing the defendant that if he cooperated, they would inform the District Attorney's office of that cooperation (see, e.g., People v Belgenio, 164 A.D.2d 865, 866).

The defendant received his agreed-upon sentence and may not now complain that it is excessive (see, People v Kazepis, 101 A.D.2d 816, 817).

We have considered the defendant's remaining contention, and find it to be unpreserved for appellate review, and, in any event, without merit. Rosenblatt, J.P., Miller, Ritter and Pizzuto, JJ., concur.
