CLEVELAND -- A man accused of rape while posing as a nurse is expected to make a plea deal on Tuesday.

Sami Farraj pleaded to reduced charges of sexual battery, gross sexual imposition, abduction, burglary and theft.

Prosecutors said Farraj sneaked into the first floor of Fairview Hospital last August, and pretending to be medical personnel, stole from rooms and patients.

They said the 31-year-old also sexually assaulted three women.

Farraj would have faced 21 to 70 years if the case went to trial.

It was also learned that Farraj is not a citizen and could be deported after his prison term. He will be sentenced on June 17.
