Jury selection is to begin Monday morning for the trial of the last of four defendants in a gang rape in a UMass Amherst dormitory.
Caleb Womack is one of four Pittsfield men who were charged with raping a UMass freshman in her dorm room in October 2012.
Emmanuel Bile, Justin King, and Adam Liccardi were each convicted in separate trials and are serving prison terms. Womack said he never had sex with the victim. The other three defendants claimed the sex was consensual.
The start of Womack’s trial was delayed a week while he underwent a competency evaluation.
The rape case prompted UMass Amherst to spend $2 million to improve dorm security.
