When  any  person  is convicted of a felony offense, the following property is subject to forfeiture pursuant to this article:  (a) any property constituting the proceeds or substituted proceeds  of such   offense,   unless  the  forfeiture  is  disproportionate  to  the defendant's gain from or participation in the offense,  in  which  event the trier of fact may direct forfeiture of a portion thereof; and  (b)  any  property  constituting  an  instrumentality of such offense, other than a real property  instrumentality  of  a  crime,  unless  such forfeiture   is   disproportionate  to  the  defendant's  gain  from  or participation in the offense, in which  event  the  trier  of  fact  may direct forfeiture of a portion thereof.   2.  When  any  person  is  convicted  of a specified offense, the real property  instrumentality  of  such  specified  offense  is  subject  to forfeiture   pursuant   to  this  article,  unless  such  forfeiture  is disproportionate to the defendant's gain from or  participation  in  the offense,  in  which  event  the trier of fact may direct forfeiture of a portion thereof.   3.

For purposes of this subdivision, "bona fide" means that the attorney  who  acquired such property had no reasonable basis to believe that the fee transaction was a fraudulent or sham  transaction  designed to shield property from forfeiture, hide its existence from governmental investigative  agencies,  or  was  conducted  for any purpose other than legitimate.

In  a  criminal  forfeiture  proceeding commenced pursuant to this   article, the following rebuttable presumption shall apply: all  currency   or  negotiable instruments payable to the bearer shall be presumed to be   the proceeds of a  felony  offense  when  such  currency  or  negotiable   instruments  are  (i) found in close proximity to a controlled substance   unlawfully possessed  by  the  defendant  in  an  amount  sufficient  to   constitute  a violation of section 220.18 or 220.21 of the penal law, or   (ii) found in close proximity to any quantity of a controlled  substance   or  marihuana  unlawfully  possessed  by such defendant in a room, other   than  a  public  place,  under  circumstances  evincing  an  intent   to   unlawfully  mix,  compound, package, distribute or otherwise prepare for   sale such controlled substance or marihuana.2.

NY Penal L § 485.00 (2021)
2021 New York Laws PEN - Penal Part 4 - Administrative Provisions Title Y - Hate Crimes Act of 2000 Article 485 - Hate Crimes 485.00 - Legislative Findings.

§ 485.00 Legislative findings.The  legislature  finds  and  determines  as  follows:  criminal  acts   involving violence, intimidation and destruction of property based  upon   bias  and  prejudice  have  become  more  prevalent in New York state in   recent years.  The intolerable truth is that in these  crimes,  commonly   and  justly  referred  to  as  "hate  crimes", victims are intentionally   selected, in whole or in part, because of their  race,  color,  national   origin,  ancestry,  gender,  gender  identity  or  expression, religion,   religious practice, age, disability or sexual orientation.  Hate  crimes   do  more  than  threaten  the  safety  and welfare of all citizens. They   inflict on victims incalculable physical and emotional damage  and  tear   at the very fabric of free society. Crimes motivated by invidious hatred   toward  particular  groups  not  only harm individual victims but send a   powerful message of intolerance and discrimination to all members of the   group to which the victim belongs. Hate crimes can and do intimidate and   disrupt entire communities and vitiate the civility that is essential to   healthy democratic processes. In a democratic society,  citizens  cannot   be  required to approve of the beliefs and practices of others, but must   never commit criminal acts on account of them. However,  these  criminal   acts  do  occur and are occurring more and more frequently. Quite often,   these crimes of hate are also acts of  terror.  The  recent  attacks  in   Monsey, New York as well as the shootings in El Paso, Texas; Pittsburgh,   Pennsylvania;   Sutherland   Springs,   Texas;   Orlando,  Florida;  and   Charleston, South Carolina  illustrate  that  mass  killings  are  often   apolitical,  motivated  by the hatred of a specific group coupled with a   desire to inflict  mass  casualties.  The  current  law  emphasizes  the   political motivation of an act over its catastrophic effect and does not   adequately recognize the harm to public order and individual safety that   hate  crimes  cause. Therefore, our laws must be strengthened to provide   clear recognition of the gravity  of  hate  crimes  and  the  compelling   importance of preventing their recurrence.Accordingly,  the  legislature  finds  and  declares  that hate crimes   should be prosecuted and punished with appropriate severity.

Notwithstanding any other  provision  of  law,  when  a  person  is convicted  of  a  hate  crime pursuant to this article and the specified offense is a class B felony:  (a) the maximum term of the indeterminate sentence must  be  at  least six  years  if  the  defendant is sentenced pursuant to section 70.00 of this chapter;  (b) the term of the determinate sentence must be at least eight  years if the defendant is sentenced pursuant to section 70.02 of this chapter;  (c) the term of the determinate sentence must be at least twelve years if the defendant is sentenced pursuant to section 70.04 of this chapter;  (d)  the  maximum  term of the indeterminate sentence must be at least four years if the defendant is sentenced pursuant to  section  70.05  of this chapter; and  (e)  the maximum term of the indeterminate sentence or the term of the determinate sentence must be at least ten  years  if  the  defendant  is sentenced pursuant to section 70.06 of this chapter.   4.

In addition to any of the dispositions authorized by this  chapter, the  court  may  require  as  part of the sentence imposed upon a person convicted of a hate crime pursuant to this article, that  the  defendant complete  a  program, training session or counseling session directed at hate crime prevention and education, where  the  court  determines  such program,   training   session  or  counseling  session  is  appropriate, available and was developed or authorized by the court or local agencies in cooperation with organizations serving the affected community.
NY Penal L § 490.00 (2021)
2021 New York Laws PEN - Penal Part 4 - Administrative Provisions Title Y-1 - Enacted Without Title Heading. Article 490 - Terrorism 490.00 - Legislative Findings.

§ 490.00 Legislative findings.The  devastating  consequences  of  the  recent barbaric attack on the   World Trade Center and the Pentagon underscore the compelling  need  for   legislation  that  is  specifically  designed  to  combat  the  evils of   terrorism. Indeed, the bombings  of  American  embassies  in  Kenya  and   Tanzania  in 1998, the federal building in Oklahoma City in 1995, Pan Am   Flight number 103 in Lockerbie in  1988,  the  1997  shooting  atop  the   Empire State Building, the 1994 murder of Ari Halberstam on the Brooklyn   Bridge  and  the  1993  bombing  of the World Trade Center, will forever   serve to remind us that terrorism is a serious and deadly  problem  that   disrupts  public  order and threatens individual safety both at home and   around the world. Terrorism is inconsistent with civilized  society  and   cannot be tolerated.Although certain federal laws seek to curb the incidence of terrorism,   there  are  no  corresponding state laws that facilitate the prosecution   and punishment of terrorists in state  courts.  Inexplicably,  there  is   also  no  criminal  penalty  in  this state for a person who solicits or   raises funds for, or provides other material support  or  resources  to,   those  who  commit  or encourage the commission of horrific and cowardly   acts of terrorism. Nor do our criminal  laws  proscribe  the  making  of   terrorist  threats  or punish with appropriate severity those who hinder   the prosecution of terrorists. Finally, our death penalty  statute  must   be  strengthened so that the cold-blooded execution of an individual for   terrorist purposes is a capital offense.A comprehensive state law is urgently  needed  to  complement  federal   laws  in  the fight against terrorism and to better protect all citizens   against terrorist acts. Accordingly, the legislature finds that our laws   must be strengthened to ensure that terrorists, as  well  as  those  who   solicit  or  provide  financial  and  other  support  to terrorists, are   prosecuted and punished in state courts with appropriate severity.
