​Dear Mr. Turner,

I’ve read your letter to the judge on behalf of your son Brock, asking for leniency in his rape conviction.

I need you to understand something, and I say this as a father who dearly loves my son as much as you must love yours:

Brock is not the victim here.
His victim is the victim.
She is the wounded one.
He is the damager.

​The mother of convicted Stanford University campus rapist Brock Turner told his judge any time behind bars would be a “death sentence.”

Santa Clara Superior Court Judge Aaron Persky six-month county jail sentence last week for the former All-American swimmer provoked criticism by prosecutors who asked for a six-year state prison term. Yet Turner’s mother Carleen asked Persky to spare him any time incarcerated at all for the January 2015 assault in a letter to Persky made public Friday.

SAN FRANCISCO - A fledgling campaign to recall the judge who sentenced a former Stanford University swimmer to six months in jail for sexually assaulting an unconscious woman gained momentum as three prominent political consultants joined the effort.

​Convicted sex offender Brock Turner “creeped out” other women at Stanford parties, including his rape victim’s sister, before he sexually assaulted an unconscious woman behind a frat house dumpster, shocking new court documents reveal.

​Davontae Sanford spent more than eight years in prison for a crime he didn't commit. He knew he was innocent, and his lawyers say that police should have, too.

The judge who gave a six-month jail term to the former Stanford University swimmer convicted of sexually assaulting an unconscious young woman has received a string of death threats after the sentence was widely condemned as too lenient, court officials said on Wednesday.

​Public outrage over the lenient sentencing of a star Stanford swimmer convicted of sexual assault has been compounded by a controversial letter written by the athlete’s father.

​If we didn't have a vulgarity policy here at the Daily News, this entire column would be 1,000 cuss words with the name Brock Turner in the middle.

​Former Stanford University student Brock Turner was found guilty Thursday for sexually assaulting an intoxicated, unconscious woman at a campus fraternity party last year. He was sentenced to six months in a county jail with probation, a ruling state officials argued was too lenient for the violent crime. Now, Turner’s father, Dan, has reportedly written a letter in opposition to his son’s sentence, blaming the case for damaging Brock’s “happy go lucky” nature and loss of appetite.
