    BRIDGEPORT, Conn. (AP) — A former Connecticut college student
    accused of lying about being raped by two university football
    players has been offered a plea deal.

    A judge on Monday set a Jan. 10 date for Nikki Yovino to accept
    or reject the offer.

    Defense attorney Ryan O’Neill says the deal’s details will
    remain confidential until then.

    The 19-year-old New York native accused two Sacred Heart
    football players of sexually assaulting her during an October
    2016 party. The players said the sex was consensual.

    Police say Yovino later admitted making up the allegations
    because she was worried another student would lose romantic
    interest in her when he found out about the sexual encounter.
