In order to be valid, a plea of guilty must be entered voluntarily, knowingly, and intelligently ( see People v Hill, 9 NY3d 189, 191; People v Fiumefreddo, 82 NY2d 536, 543). Where a defendant's recitation of the facts underlying the crime pleaded to clearly casts significant doubt upon the defendant's guilt or otherwise calls into question the voluntariness of the plea, the trial court has a duty to inquire further to ensure that defendant's plea of guilty is knowing and voluntary ( see People v Lopez, 71 NY2d 662, 666). Here, a review of the entire factual recitation during the defendant's plea allocution raises the possibility of a justification defense, thereby casting significant doubt on the defendant's guilt ( see Penal Law ยง 35.15 [c]; ยง 35.20 [3]; People v Lopez, 71 NY2d at 666; cf. People v Ponder, 34 AD3d 1314, 1315; People v Wolcott, 27 AD3d 774, 775; People v Rumrill, 258 AD2d 928, 929). Specifically, a justification to the crime of attempted assault in the first degree exists as an individual may use deadly physical force when that individual, in possession of a dwelling, reasonably believes that another is committing or attempting to commit a burglary of such dwelling, and the individual reasonably believes that deadly force is necessary to prevent or terminate the commission or attempted commission of such burglary ( see Penal Law ยง 35.20; cf. People v Adames, 52 AD3d 617, 619). Although the dissent asserts that the defendant's contention regarding her plea allocution is unpreserved for appellate review, this case presents a rare exception to the preservation requirement insofar as the voluntariness of the plea was called into question before the court ( see People v Lopez, 71 NY2d at 665-666; People v Ferraro, 49 AD3d 550, 551). Moreover, we respectfully disagree with the dissent's position that the defendant's allocution did not suggest that she justifiably use
