A former University of Alabama student is charged with multiple sex crimes including rape of another student.

Gambill Colvard Gentry, 23, is charged with first-degree rape, first-degree sodomy, and multiple counts of first-degree voyeurism, authorities announced Monday.

Tuscaloosa Violent Crimes Unit Capt. Jack Kennedy said Gentry has been banned from campus.

The unit’s Sexual Assault Section over the past several weeks have been investigating the alleged crimes.

A female told authorities met an acquaintance at a bar, woke up the next morning with no memory of the night before, and suspected that she had been assaulted, Kennedy said.

Investigators were able to obtain photo and video evidence that clearly showed that the victim had been sexually assaulted while unconscious.

Gentry was taken into custody on July 25, He remains held without bond.

Evidence recovered during the investigation into Gentry leads investigators to believe that there may be other victims unknown to law enforcement.
