A former college student in Connecticut who is accused of faking rape allegations against two football players in an attempt to gain sympathy from another man is facing two years in prison under a proposed plea bargain.

Under a deal offered by prosecutors, 19-year-old Nikki Yovino — a former student at Sacred Heart University — would serve two years in prison followed by three years of probation for second-degree falsely reporting an incident and tampering with or fabricating physical evidence, the Connecticut Post reported.

“I think the offer is a good one considering the serious allegations in the case,” Superior Court Judge Earl Richards said Thursday before continuing the case until June 26.

Yovino’s attorney, Mark Sherman, declined to comment after the hearing.

An attorney for the two former football players said he will contact his clients to discuss the proposed deal. They were scheduled to attend a school disciplinary hearing following Yovino’s accusations, but after meeting with attorneys agreed instead to withdraw from the university to avoid potential expulsion.

“This has just been a nightmare for them,” attorney Agustin Sevillano said.

Yovino — who was charged in February and has since left the private university — admitted that she made up the accusations to try to get sympathy from another man she considered to be a prospective boyfriend, according to an arrest warrant affidavit.

Police said Yovino told them on Oct. 15 that she attended a Sacred Heart football club party and claimed two men took her into a bathroom and sexually assaulted her.

“I don’t want to be in here, I don’t want to do anything,” she claimed to have told the men. “My friends are waiting for me outside, let me go outside.”

Both men admitted having sex with Yovino, but claimed it was consensual. Witnesses also told police that it appeared the teen went into the bathroom willingly with the men.

“She admitted that she made up the allegation of sexual assault against (the football players) because it was the first thing that came to mind and she didn’t want to lose (another male student) as a friend and potential boyfriend,” according to the affidavit.

“She stated that she believed when (the other male student) heard the allegation it would make him angry and sympathetic to her.”
