Relates to consecutive sentencing for certain convictions for sex crimes

This bill (S 1390) requires consecutive sentencing for defendants convicted of multiple qualifying sex crimes. It directly affects individuals sentenced for two or more counts of specific sex offenses listed in New York’s penal law, including crimes under Article 263 and sections 130.75, 130.80, 130.95, and 130.96. The law changes sentencing rules by mandating that these sentences run one after another (consecutively), rather than simultaneously (concurrently), for the specified offenses. This applies to both current convictions and prior felony sex crime convictions under these sections.
