Brian Banks is a former NFL whose life was altered forever when he was the victim of a false-r*pe allegation towards the end of his high school years.

We spoke about how he found out that he was being accused of such a horrific crime, the process of being arrested & charged and the legal games that were at play before his trial.

Brian told us about why he felt like he had to accept a plea bargain despite being completely innocent, the monotonous reality & dangers of prison life and how he remained sane in prison.

Brian’s story get even more bizarre post-prison when he was on parole and his false-accuser got in contact with him with the intention of striking up a friendship. Brian used this opportunity to gather video evidence that would later clear his name and get his football career back on track.
