Two friends of the men were also alleged to have watched and attempted to record the act through a window

By that account it does sound like she was targeted by the men. One of them brought her back to a hotel room, called his friend over to have sex with her and presumably more than just that friend was called if two more of them were watching through a window and recording it....
