—Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Quinones, J.), rendered May 15, 1992, convicting him of sodomy in the third degree, sexual abuse in the third degree (two counts), and endangering the welfare of an incompetent person, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, and the matter is remitted to the Supreme Court, Kings County, for further proceedings pursuant to CPL 460.50 (5).
The defendant’s convictions arise out of a February 1991 incident in which he engaged in sexual acts with the complainant, a mentally-retarded female, then 19 years old. The defendant was convicted primarily on the basis of the complainant’s testimony. Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution (see, People v Contes, 60 NY2d 620), we find that it was legally sufficient to establish the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Contrary to the defendant’s contention, there was legally sufficient evidence from which the jury could have concluded that the complainant was "mentally defective” within the meaning of Penal Law § 130.00 (5), and therefore that she could not consent to the subject sexual acts (see, People v Easley, 42 NY2d 50, 54; People v Cratsley, 206 AD2d 691).
Moreover, evidence of the presence of sperm on the clothing worn by the complainant on the day of the incident, testimony
Upon the exercise of our factual review power, we are satisfied that the verdict of guilt was not against the weight of the evidence (see, CPL 470.15 [2]).
We have reviewed the defendant’s remaining contentions and find them to be without merit. Mangano, P. J., Bracken, Altman and Goldstein, JJ., concur.
