Ex-Stanford swimmer Brock Turner spotted at parents’ home in Ohio

http://m.journal-news.com/news/news/ex-stanford-swimmer-brock-turner-spotted-at-parent/nsRZL/

The former Stanford University and Oakwood High School swimmer Brock Turner was spotted this afternoon in the backyard of his parents’ home in Ohio.

Turner was released from jail Friday after serving half of his six-month sentence in Santa Clara County, California, for sexually assaulting an unconscious woman behind a dumpster on campus in January 2015.



Ugh why did he have to come to Ohio.

Just think, if he'd been a college student caught smoking pot at a party, he might have been stuck in a locked room for 5 days with no food or water, and forced to drink his own urine to survive.

he's the Massachusetts 18 year old, charged rape, etc. the Judge sentenced him to 2 years of probation allowing him to attend college in Ohio. According to Cosmopolitan it was to the University of Dayton, but UD said he won't be attending the school.

The Flyers made Becker fly away. As an Alum, I've got to send them a thank you note & make a donation to go toward sex assault education at UD.

Convicted sexual assaulter Brock Turner spotted at parents’ home in Ohio

He shouldn't have his athletic ability be the thing people remember about him. The fact that he's a scumbag is what should be front and center. I'd call him a convicted rapist, but technically the rape charges were dropped. I mean I'm not sure why there is a difference between sexual violation with fingers as compared to a penis, but there is legally.
