Appeal by the defendant from a resentence of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Naro, J.), imposed March 10, 2000, upon remittitur from this court (see, People v. Garcia, 267 A.D.2d 247).
Lynn W. L. Fahey, New York, N.Y. (Rachel Altstein of counsel), for appellant.
Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, N.Y. (John M. Castellano, Johnnette Traill, and James L. Iannone of counsel; Marcia Johnson on the brief), for respondent.

DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the resentence is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the resentencing court complied with the mandates of Penal Law § 70.10(2). The court adequately stated on the record the reasons it was of the opinion that the history and character of the defendant and the nature and circumstances of his criminal conduct demonstrated that extended incarceration and lifetime supervision would best serve the public interest (see, People v. Smith, 254 A.D.2d 377; People v. Corrica, 243 A.D.2d 722; People v. Dell'Orfano, 217 A.D.2d 588; People v. Montes, 135 A.D.2d 838; cf., People v. Gaines, 136 A.D.2d 731, 733).
