A former Vanderbilt University football player committed criminal rape and violated the laws of human decency, prosecutors said on Monday at the opening of his retrial on charges he raped an unconscious female student in June 2013. Attorneys for Brandon Vandenburg, now 22, painted a completely different picture in their opening statement of his retrial, which began almost a year after a judge declared a mistrial following his conviction. “He violated not only the laws of the state of Tennessee, he violated the laws of human decency,” said prosecutor Tom Thurman after he outlined what he said happened when the woman was attacked after Vandenburg and other football players brought her, unconscious, to his room. However, defense attorney Randall Reagan placed the blame on the other men in the room.

Aquarius Mission Liftoff by NASA on The Commons Via Flickr: A Delta II rocket launches from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California with the Aquarius spacecraft. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory built Aquarius, which was the primary instrument on the Satélite de Aplicaciones Científicas (SAC)-D observatory. The Aquarius/SAC-D mission was developed collaboratively between NASA and Argentina's space agency, Comisión Nacional de Actividades Espaciales (CONAE). Aquarius's mission was to study sea surface salinity and it made the first space-based global observations of ocean surface salinity, flying 657 kilometers (408 miles) above Earth in a sun-synchronous polar orbit that repeated every seven days. Planned for a 3 year mission, the probe finally suffered a power failure and the mission was ended in June 2015. Image #: 201106100017HQ (NASA/Bill Ingalls) Date: June 10, 2011
