Nicholas Rossi, notorious for his elaborate escape involving a faked death certificate, has been sentenced to at least five years in a Utah prison for raping two women. The Rhode Island man was convicted in separate cases in August and September. A second sentencing looms in November.

Rossi was caught after a decade-long game of hide-and-seek with the law. Despite his insistence on innocence, Utah's judicial system was unconvinced, sentencing him immediately. His accusers bravely recounted their harrowing tales, highlighting Rossi's manipulation and abuse.

The complexities of the case intensified with Rossi's extradition from Scotland, where he was found posing under an alias. Using multiple identities, Rossi evaded justice until DNA evidence and a distinctive tattoo led to his capture and subsequent conviction.
