1Opinion of the CourtRose, J.

Appeal from a judgment of the County Court of Albany County (Breslin, J.), rendered August 19, 2005, upon a verdict convicting defendant of the crime of murder in the second degree.

Defendant was indicted for murder in the second degree after admitting to stabbing her boyfriend 26 times, causing his death.

Ultimately, her defense of justification was rejected by the jury, she was convicted as charged, and she now appeals.
