Order, Supreme Court, New York County (Gregory Carro, J.), entered on or about November 18, 2011, which adjudicated defendant a level three sexually violent predicate sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration Act (Correction Law art. 6–C), unanimously affirmed, without costs.
The court properly applied the presumptive override for a prior felony sex crime conviction, and properly exercised its discretion in denying a downward departure. The underlying offense is defendant's third felony sex crime conviction. Defendant committed the underlying crime after having already been adjudicated a level three sex offender for a crime committed against young children. Furthermore, defendant has also been convicted of a misdemeanor sex offense. The mitigating factors cited by defendant, including his relatively low point score on the risk assessment instrument and his efforts at rehabilitation, are outweighed by defendant's record, which demonstrates a dangerous propensity to commit sex crimes ( see e.g. People v. Jamison, 107 A.D.3d 531, 966 N.Y.S.2d 778 [1st Dept. 2013], lv. denied22 N.Y.3d 852, 2013 WL 5567921 [2013] ).People v. Poole, 105 A.D.3d 654, 963 N.Y.S.2d 259 [1st Dept. 2013], lv. denied21 N.Y.3d 863, 2013 WL 4516326 [2013] ).
