U.S. Marine sentenced in Japan

A U.S. Marine in Japan was ordered confined for two years and dishonorably discharged following a conviction in a case of an alleged rape of a Japanese woman.

The 20-year-old lance corporal was was cleared of rape charges as there was no physical violence or threats required under U.S. military law for such a conviction, the Mainichi Shimbun reported. He was convicted Friday of wrongful sexual misconduct and indecent acts.

Courts-martial hearings for three other Marines accused in the alleged incident last October will start later this month, the report said.
