Nicholas Rossi, the man who allegedly faked his death and left the country after facing rape charges, was convicted by a jury that heard the testimony of his ex-fiancée.

Jurors late Wednesday found Nicholas Rossi guilty of rape, a first-degree felony, just two days after his trial started in Salt Lake City. Sentencing is set for Oct. 20.

Nicholas Rossi was found guilty late Wednesday of the 2008 rape of a woman he had met online, before fleeing the country in an attempt to avoid prosecution.
