TOKYO, Japan (CNN) — A U.S. Marine accused of raping a 19-year-old Japanese woman last year was found guilty Thursday of “committing wrongful sexual contact and indecent acts,” the U.S. military said, but he was acquitted of rape. The sentencing hearing for Lance Cpl. Larry A. Dean, 20, is scheduled to begin on Friday. Dean is among four Marines under court-martial in connection with the case. The others are: Sgt. Lanaeus J. Braswell, 25, Gunnery Sgt. Carl M. Anderson, 39, and Gunnery Sgt. Jarvis D. Raynor, 34, the military said. |
