The jury for the retrial of former Vanderbilt football player, Brandon Vandenburg, will be selected from Memphis.
Those close to the case added the selection has been set to begin June 8.
The cases against Brandon Vandenburg and Cory Batey were severed, meaning the two former Vanderbilt University football players were standing trial separately.
Batey was tried in early April with a jury selected from Chattanooga.
The jury found Batey guilty on one count of aggravated rape, two counts of attempted aggravated rape, three counts of aggravated sexual battery, and one count of facilitation of aggravated rape. The most serious of which, aggravated rape, carries a 15-25 year penalty.
Batey's sentencing date was scheduled for May 20.
Both Vandenburg and Batey were accused of raping a college co-ed in a Vanderbilt University dorm room back in 2013. They were both convicted last year, but those convictions were overturned after a juror lied during the jury selection process.
The state decided to move forward with Batey’s retrial after attorneys for Vandenburg met with Judge Monte Watkins and said they could not continue with the retrial as scheduled because one of the attorneys was dealing with an unspecified health issue.
