THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, Respondent, v. KEITH COGSWELL, Appellant.

Satisfying a four-count indictment, defendant pleaded guilty to sexual abuse in the first degree and was sentenced as negotiated to six months in jail and 10 years of probation. Defendant now appeals, arguing that the sentence imposed was harsh and excessive. We disagree. Noting the reprehensible nature of the crime perpetrated on a child, we find neither an abuse of discretion by County Court nor the existence of any extraordinary circumstances justifying a modification of the agreed-upon sentence in the interest of justice ( see People v Ali-Rachedi, 34 AD3d 981, 981-982, lu denied 8 NY3d 878).

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
