Brian Banks

Banks was a high school senior playing football, he was a division 1 hopeful. He got a call from a USC coach Pete Carroll. Banks had a verbal agreement to play at USC. Later in the year he went out with a girl named Wantta Gibson. After that night she accused Banks of kidnapping and rape. He was in jail with a bail of one million dollars. His mother sold her house and her car to afford the lawyer that they needed. His defence told him that because of his size, age, and race that it would be hard to get a fair trail. He plead no contest, which meant that he would only serve a max of 5 years instead of a possible 41. After 85% of his term was up he was let out, but he had to wear an ankle bracelet at all times, and he was a registered sex offender. A few weeks later he got a Facebook and soon after that he got a strange friend request. It was from Gibson. She said that she wanted to talk, but Banks wasn't sure if he could trust her. Banks hired a detective to help place hidden cameras and microphones around the room where they would meet. The conversation brought up was implementing that Banks was innocent. She said her self that he did not kidnap and rape her. This was all they needed. Bank's crime was lifted and could walk free again. Then he got a call from a coach asking if he knew a line backer. It was Pete Carroll again but with the Seahawks.
