It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.
Memorandum: Defendant appeals from a judgment convicting him upon a jury verdict of, inter alia, rape in the first degree (Penal Law § 130.35). Contrary to defendant's contention, County Court properly denied his post-trial motion pursuant to CPL 330.30 (2) seeking to set aside the verdict on the ground of juror misconduct without conducting a hearing ( cf. People v Rivera, 304 AD2d 841). The moving papers did not contain the necessary "sworn allegations of all facts essential to support the motion" (CPL 330.40 [e] [ii]). Indeed, defendant "do[es] not raise a question of outside influence but, rather, [he] seeks to impeach the verdict by delving into the tenor of the jury's deliberative processes" ( People v Drake, 68 AD3d 1778, 1779, lv denied 14 NY3d 840 [internal quotation marks omitted]; see People v Gerecke, 34 AD3d 1260, 1262, lv denied 7 NY3d 925).
The contention of defendant that the court erred in refusing to suppress his written statements to a detective is not preserved for our review inasmuch as that contention is based on a ground that was not raised before the suppression court ( see People v Brooks, 26 AD3d 739, 740, lv denied 6 NY3d 846, 7 NY3d 810; People v Zeito, 302 AD2d 923, lv denied 99 NY2d 634). Further, defendant did not object to the trial testimony concerning those statements, and his post-trial motion pursuant to CPL 330.30 is insufficient to preserve his contention for our review ( see generally People v Padro, 75 NY2d 820, rearg denied 75 NY2d 1005, rearg dismissed 81 NY2d 989). We decline to exercise our power to review defendant's contention as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice ( see CPL 470.15 [a]).
Viewing the evidence in light of the elements of the crimes as charged to the jury ( see People v Danielson, 9 NY3d 342, 349), we conclude that the verdict is not against the weight of the evidence ( see generally People v Bleakley, 69 NY2d 490, 495). Finally, the sentence is not unduly harsh or severe.
