Steven Mauck was sentenced to 25 years in prison Tuesday, following a second-degree sexual assault conviction in November.
The 38-year-old Burlington resident was convicted in the rape of Justina Rucinski, who runs an in-home baking business in Burlington.
During the trial, it was revealed Mauck used a fake name to place a large cookie order from Rucinski. He used this excuse to gain entry into her apartment and rape her at gunpoint, prosecutors said.
Mauck still denies the crime, and won’t be eligible for parole until he admits guilt and participates in a sex offender program. Mauck said he will appeal the sentence.
