    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Flaviano Quintero, Appellant.
    [898 NYS2d 489]
   — Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Dutchess County (Dolan, J.), rendered September 9, 2008, convicting him of predatory sexual assault and rape in the first degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence. The appeal brings up for review the denial, after a hearing, of that branch of the defendant’s omnibus motion which was to suppress a statement the defendant made to law enforcement officials.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

Contrary to the defendant’s contention, the record supports the hearing court’s conclusion that his statement regarding a laptop computer was spontaneous and not the result of the functional equivalent of interrogation (see People v Stockdale, 270 AD2d 294, 294-295 [2000]; People v Betancourt, 173 AD2d 481, 482 [1991]; cf. People v Ferro, 63 NY2d 316, 322-323 [1984], cert denied 472 US 1007 [1985]). Fisher, J.P., Leventhal, Belen and Sgroi, JJ., concur.
