N.Y. Penal Law § 105.30: Conspiracy; no defense

§ 105.30 Conspiracy; no defense.

It is no defense to a prosecution for conspiracy that, owing to

criminal irresponsibility or other legal incapacity or exemption, or to

unawareness of the criminal nature of the agreement or the object

conduct or of the defendant's criminal purpose or to other factors

precluding the mental state required for the commission of conspiracy or

the object crime, one or more of the defendant's co-conspirators could

not be guilty of conspiracy or the object crime.
