Nashua - Four Mexican men accused of gang-raping a city woman in her West Hollis Street home have agreed to plead guilty to sexual assault charges and leave the county, court documents say.

Luis Aquino Garcia, 24, Omar Cecenas, 25, Raul Ibarra, 27, and Juan Vera, 23, were scheduled to go to trial Monday in Hillsborough County Superior Court on charges they groped and raped a 39-year-old woman in her home last year.

Instead, the four defendants decided to plead guilty and avoid a trial.

Ibarra, Cecenas, and Garcia agreed to not fight deportation back to Mexico, in exchange for a deferral of their five-to-ten-year state prison sentences for five years, court papers say.

Details surrounding Vera’s sentence were not available Friday. Vera was facing three counts of aggravated felonious sexual assault and two misdemeanor sexual assault charges.

Each of the four men had admitted to sexually assaulting the woman in her home the night of April 8, 2006.

The woman was acquainted with Cecenas but didn’t know the other men, who she had invited to her home, where she, her daughter and two of her daughter’s friends all were socializing.

After her daughter and friends left the room, the four men groped her and then held her down and raped her, according to court documents.
