CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) — A Benton County jury has convicted an Oregon State University student, 20-year-old Gregory Sako of rape and sexual abuse in connection with a fraternity party last Halloween.

His attorney suggested the 21-year-old woman lied about being raped out of embarrassment.

Sako will remain in custody until sentencing, which is set for Tuesday.

The Corvallis Gazette-Times said that under Measure 11 guidelines, he will likely be sentenced to eight years and four months in prison, with no early release and no credit for good behavior.
