I can't even describe how angry this makes me. "The court believes that Turner is "unlikely to misbehave behind bars."" No shit, he can't rape people if he's locked up? Amazing. And he doesn't even have to share his cell? </p> <p>Even at 22 I knew how futile it would be to report, this says everything: "Yet, as infuriating as Turner's special treatment continues to be, it's unfortunately not rare. According to the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network (RAINN), 97 of every 100 rapists go free for their crimes. Out of every 100 rapes, only 46 are ever reported, 12 lead to an arrest, nine will be prosecuted, five will receive a felony conviction, and only three will ever serve jail time." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brock-turner-court-case-is-this-real-life/page/3#post-2565359 Fri, 10 Jun 2016 15:34:32 +0000 BSB 2565359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Finally, USA swimming has not condoned his actions and said he won't able able to swim in any Olympic events. <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/US/usa-swimming-bans-stanford-student-brock-turner-life/story?id=39752826" rel="nofollow">http://abcnews.go.com/US/usa-swimming-bans-stanford-student-brock-turner-life/story?id=39752826</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brock-turner-court-case-is-this-real-life/page/3#post-2564927 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 22:33:37 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2564927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pumpkin Pie: IDK, I don't think that recalling the judge is the best path. There is already a system in place to address cases where a judge made an ethically questionable ruling. I think the case should be reported to the ethics commission and they should take it from there. (And hopefully find the judge guilty and barring him from serving!) Recalling a judge because we don't like their decisions is a slippery slope. How long until judges are recalled because they struck down abortion laws or upheld anti-discrimination laws? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brock-turner-court-case-is-this-real-life/page/3#post-2564922 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 22:15:29 +0000 Pumpkin Pie 2564922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is a petition to have the judge removed.
