Opinion
May 5, 1986
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Queens County (Browne, J.).
Judgments affirmed.
The hearing court did not err in denying the defendant's motion to suppress certain physical evidence on the ground that a search warrant should not have been issued. The court that signed the warrant was presented with an affidavit of a police officer based upon evidence provided by a 15-year-old girl and a 16-year-old girl, one of whom was raped, and the other of whom was sexually abused at gunpoint. The information was provided by two identifiable victims of a crime with actual knowledge of the events and was, therefore, clearly reliable (see, People v Hicks, 38 N.Y.2d 90; People v Cantre, 95 A.D.2d 522, affd 65 N.Y.2d 790; People v Marinelli, 100 A.D.2d 597).
Furthermore, prior to accepting the defendant's pleas, she was advised of her constitutional rights, and she knowingly and intelligently waived the same. Thus, the plea was properly accepted (see, People v Harris, 61 N.Y.2d 9). Lastly, the sentence imposed upon the defendant was well within the bounds of both the applicable sentencing statute and the court's sound discretion (see, People v Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80). Gibbons, J.P., Thompson, Niehoff and Rubin, JJ., concur.
