California Judge Who Served Brock Turner Recalled!

Judge who gave light sentence to convicted rapist was recalled in California.

The judge who served convicted rapist Brock Turner is now finding himself off the bench. Aaron Persky handed Turner six months in the iron college. Turner only got three weeks of in-house and had to register in Offender U for LIFE.

Turner is currently fighting his enrollment. He seeks a lifting of the title of TIER III.

Turner who then a standout Stanford swimmer was caught sexually assaulting an unconscious woman behind a pair of dumpsters. He was spotted by two good samertians. Then Turner tried to flee, but was soon caught.

Santa Clara County prosecutors urged six years in the iron college. Persky, an alum of Stanford, believed that Turner was a good student and it was an innocent mishap. He believed both Turner and the victim were too drunk to know what happened.

He did recommend that Turner would enroll in Offender U for a lengthy bid.

Turner was stripped of his titles and removed from Stanford.

He would return to his hometown of Daytom, Ohio in disgrace.

Persky, who is white became the first judge since 1932 to be recalled. In the 21st Century his name will be embellished with American justice reform.

As you know, #MeToo, #NeverAgain and Black Lives Matter have demands of Donald J. Trump, Congress and the junk food media.

1. Accountability. They want people in power to held to the same standards as the common. Trump, Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey, Bill Cosby and others now face court dates. Police officers will be eventually wearing body cameras, hold more diversity and deescalation training. Congress will eventually work to pass bipartisan policies.

2. Equal treatment. Many people of color have been sentenced for non violent offenses while white privileged have gotten lenient bids. Criminal justice reform is now being examined. If a white female teacher who rapes a child gets a light sentence compared to a Black male who rapes a child getting a lengthy bid, then the system is fucked up. Both are equal and both should face the harshest punishment.

3. Don't disqualify us. The power of activism in the era of Trump has Republicans scared. Mitch McConnell is purposely canceling summer recess to undercut Democrats chances to take back the Senate. Many activists are holding entertainers, Congress, Breitbart, Fox News and Trump accountable. The firing of Roseanne Barr, the boycott of Laura Ingraham, and R. Kelly's events and music being pulled are signs of progress. These are perfect examples of activism at its finest. You better hear the activists. We pay your salaries. We control your ad revenue. We determine your ratings, your popularity and your successes. All of this could be gone in a hot second.

Persky felt the #MeToo Movement. Hopefully many others will see that light sentences and victim shaming aren't the status quo.
