A jury has found a former Vanderbilt football player guilty on all charges for his role in the rape of an unconscious woman.

Brandon Vandenburg was found guilty by the jury in Nashville of raping the woman who he was dating at the time in his Vanderbilt dorm room three years ago.

The jury took four hours to make their decision and delivered their verdict just after 8.20pm local time.

Vandenburg now faces a potential jail sentence of up to 25 years and was taken into custody as soon as the verdicts were read out while his parents began to cry.

“Yes. And let’s ban fraternities, sororities, and anything else that makes the college experience fun.”

If every student had to pay a “fraternity and sorority fee” I would agree with this statement. Fun is something that should not require a subsidy from a university and to the extent it does, should be abolished.

White boy calls up his 3-4 black thugimals to come over and gang bang and sodomize anally and high five each other’s homoerotic ass over her completely unconscious body covered in their worthless DNA splatter

It’s disgusting

Beyond disgusting....they merit the worst

The weak ass white boy should be eviscerated and his entrails hanged from what used to be Confederate Memorial Hall. ....he could take the walk in Viking lore

The Africans Americans should be strange fruit in short order from a big oak at centennial park and then gibbeted on west end avenue

I mean they dragged her naked around the dorm hallway showing off and filming themselves

What kind of white boy does that?

What sort of man does that to an essentially asleep woman

And two to four trials for this poor girl

Ugh.....this really really bugs me...I hope the traitorous wood rapist gets sent to Carter County maximum in east TN to build his time....huge Alice Baker presence there.....he’ll be welcomed warmly for giving up a white coed for a black gang rape....yessir.....locker room welcome

“Colleges can sponsor sports farm teams without pretending these borderline dull/imbeciles are “students,”.......

While I agree with the “borderline dull/imbeciles” part, where do you propose the colleges get the funds to create the “Farm Teams”? Certainly the cost of college already is so far out of line students would NEVER be able to afford or repay ANY student loans. (Unless of course Bernie Sanders got elected.....another imbecile)

..he handed out condoms...he took video..

As far as I can tell, those two items are only supported by the testimony of one of the other defendents who turned state’s witness.

It may or may not be true; but he is supposed to have met these guys just minutes before all this happened!

Obama was probably sent to these shores in order to disrupt and degrade American power. He has unleashed chaos at home and abroad. Mission well done Comrade Obama...

I agree 100%. That is definitely where this punk needs to be sent to spend his days (24-7) until they pronounce him dead.

3 others have been charged; one of them has been tried and was convicted in April. Don’t believe he’s been sentenced yet. Other two have not been tried.

Wall Street wants athletes when they hire because of all of their driven personalities. Your idea is dumb. The only thing I would agree with you is that there should be no federal funding of sports at University (I think no federal funding for any colleges in any way).

the corruption of the entire system inherent in calling them “students,” as universities construct increasingly preposterous excuses for curriculums and bend grade standards to suit them — many of whom are completely illiterate — needs to end.

there are many people in college who fit the description you’ve portrayed; most of whom have never participated in any sport...are we to shut down their collegial pursuits as well? Remedial education is not a college’s function; if they are illiterate, then shut down lower education and jail the parents, where the real villains are...

in actuality, all education has become an anachronism, and now exists for the sole purpose of turning out perfect little statists who will toe the governmental line without question; true coursework will be, and already has been, sanctioned out of existence, and social justice indoctrination will become the law of the land...but, by all means, let’s shut sports down...

So, you accuse all athletes of being rapists, or potential rapists? That is as bigoted and ignorant as claiming all blacks are criminals.

Athletics teach teamwork, competition, respect for rules, planning, and the value of hard work.

You will NEVER find a large demographic without bad apples, even in your own circle of friends/acquaintances.

This guy was scum, and he should rot in prison. But saying all athletes are the same? Shame on you.

and universities get back to their primary purpose, education?

I take it you’ve been away for awhile...the ‘primary purpose’ of these universities is to crank out social justice warriors, who don’t necessariy read and write particularly well, but can recite the 57 different human genders at the drop of a hat...

The 49 second video was recovered from Vandenburg's cell phone after he tried to erase it and was played for the jurors at trial.
