Vandenburg Retrial Begins Monday

Posted

A third trial surrounding the Vanderbilt rape case has been set to begin.

Beginning Monday, a jury from Memphis will decide whether former football player Brandon Vandenburg raped an unconscious student in a dorm room three years ago.

Co-defendent Cory Batey was found guilty on multiple counts just two months ago during his retrial.

Both men were found guilty on all counts in 2015, but the judge declared a mistrial.

Gavel-to-gavel coverage has been scheduled to start at 9 a.m. Monday on NewsChannel 5 Plus and online at NewsChannel5.com.
