Prosecutors offered Maraj 15 years in prison if he pleads guilty to “predatory sexual assault of a child” which is a class A-II felony. Nicki's brother, was initially offered a plea deal for seven years in prison before being indicted by a grand jury in exchange for pleading guilty to “course of sexual conduct against a child in the first degree,” but he rejected the offer.
Remember, Maraj was arrested last December after a 12-year-old girl accused him that he raped and sodomized her for eight months.
The Assistant District Attorney Anthony Pirri, told the judge at a hearing July 26 in Nassau County Supreme Court’s sex crimes division, that the semen found in the victim’s pants was consistent to Maraj’s DNA. He said:
"A DNA profile, a partial profile matching the defendant or consistent with the defendant, your honor, to the point in the hundreds of billionths of chance of it being any other individual, was discovered in the…pants of the complainant in this case, and also tested positive indicating the presence of semen,”.
He is due back in court in August, but if he rejects the current deal, the child rape case will start in November.
