After her date with her on-campus boyfriend ended with a college student being gang raped by four of her fellow Vanderbilt University students four years ago, the victim has had to endure the ordeal of confronting each of her tormentors in court to relive that horrific act.
The woman who was raped while she was unconscious in a Vanderbilt University dorm room, by football players cried when she testified in court against of the last of the infamous four on Wednesday.
The visibly shaken woman faced Brandon Banks for the first time since her nightmare began four years ago. She told the court in Nashville, Tennessee, she had only seen his image in the collection of evidence.
The woman’s boyfriend Brandon Vandenburg was caught on surveillance video carrying her into his dorm room, where prosecutors say he handed out condoms to his three teammates and egged them on, to assault his blacked out date.
A video shows the defendant, Banks assaulting the student with a water bottle, Assistant District Attorney Jan Norman told the court, but the former football player claimed he was bullied and pressured by Vandenburg and his other teammates.
All four of the former football players were charged, and Vandenburg was convicted and sentenced to 17 years in prison. Corey Batey, who was also found guilty of rape, is serving 15-years.

Jaborian McKenzie, the fourth player charged in the case, testified against his teammates and took the stand against Banks on Tuesday, confirming the 23-year-old’s role in assaulting the woman with a water bottle.
Amid multiple court proceedings against the defendants, the woman has testified five times about the 2013 rape.
On Wednesday, the woman described the night at Tin Roof Bar on June 23, 2013, where prosecutors said Vandenburg gave her a blue-colored drink.
When Assistant District Attorney Jan Norman asked her what she remembered next, the woman, overcome with emotion whispered ‘sorry’ and said: ‘The next thing I remember is waking up alone in a room I didn’t recognize.’
The rape victim, then a 21-year-old neuroscience major, has previously testified that she had no memory of the event.

Banks said he was bullied into participating, and took the stand on Wednesday to further make his case.
Before the assault, the woman was on the floor vomiting, and he told his teammates that she needed to go to the hospital.
But they said they wanted to have sex with her, and Banks was going to leave the dorm room, he testified – but he claims they told him he wasn’t going anywhere.
Banks also said that his teammates had long made fun of him because he was small.
‘When you’re a freshman, it’s called a body count they keep,’ Banks said. ‘When you’re on campus it’s how many girls can you sleep with.’
Banks, who had a girlfriend at the time, was made fun of and called ‘gay’ because he was always was on the phone with her and didn’t frequently talk to other women.

Having been bullied and intimidated by Vandenburg and Batey, Blanks said, he followed Vandenburg’s commands.
‘He told me to take pictures, too, so I take pictures.’
Banks’ cellphone contained 23 of 41 images of the assault, Assistant District Attorney Jan Norman said in Davidson County Criminal Court.
Norman also told the jurors in graphic detail on Monday that a video shows Banks assaulting the student with a water bottle.
At times, the players laughed and applauded each other during the rape, Norman said.

The sordid event was accidentally exposed when the Vanderbilt University police investigating vandalism in a dorm in June 2013, tripped on images of the rape stored on the student’s phones. as reported by the Tennessean.
Campus police who were reviewing surveillance tape saw four men carrying an unconscious woman into a room at Vanderbilt’s Gillette Hall in the early morning hours of June 23.
Photos and videos of the rape had been deleted, but Metro Nashville Police detective Chad Gish managed to find smaller, thumbnail-sized images that were still saved on the phones after deducing the time frame they were taken from the surveillance video of the woman being dragged into the dorm.
So far Banks now 23, has led a charmed life compared to his other low life former team mates. Shortly Brandon Vandenburg walked into a Tennessee prison to start a 17-year sentence, Brandon E. Banks jogged onto a football field.
He has been largely been out of the public eye as two of his former football teammates were tried and were convicted  in the June 2013 gang rape.
While his own charges in the case were pending,who is from Maryland transferred to Jackson, Tenn., where he played two seasons as a defensive back for the Lane College Dragons.
His bite of the court system to decide his culpability on aggravated rape and other charges, four years to the day after the rape that rocked Vanderbilt University. At the end of the trial he will find out whether he returns to the field for his senior season in college.
22-year-old Jaborian “Tip” McKenzie has testified in three trials against his former teammates hoping to get a deal in his own case. While charges against him were pending, he started school at Alcorn State University in Mississippi, where he was playing football.
He was subsequently kicked off the football team less than a day after his presence on the team attracted attention.
