Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Shantae Splunge, Appellant.
[868 NYS2d 532]

Opinion:
The court properly exercised its discretion in denying defendant youthful offender treatment (see People v Drayton, 39 NY2d 580 [1976]), in view of the violence and other aggravating circumstances involved in the two robberies of which defendant was convicted. We also perceive no basis for reducing the sentence. Concur — Mazzarelli, J.E, Gonzalez, Catterson, McGuire and Acosta, JJ.
