Court of Appeals of New York

Defendant's murder sentence is affirmed in part where the imposition of consecutive sentences was permissible in this case with respect to certain victims because separate acts constituted the actus reus of each of the depraved indifference crimes against those victims. However, the order is reversed in part where, with respect to one victim, the risk-creating conduct for defendant's conviction was the same act as that of the others and running his sentence concurrently is required.
