Did you read his dads statement? "20 minutes" of action.....it's no wonder the son turned out how he did

I didn't, as the bist I did read made me sick to my stomach tbh. But if thats his dads attitude then no wonder he has turned out like this :S

Yeah, his sons life shouldn't be ruined because of "20 minutes of action" - that's how he described the rape :/

If you just go on what the offender got out of it, you could say 'X life shouldn't be ruined for 10 seconds of action' about a murderer and such though. What a vile man and a horrid way of looking at things :S

..this isn't really on topic but it's something that I was reading about on Imgur when this thread was made and interesting because of the difference in sentencing even without evidence...(it's not a recent story btw..)...

Jesus, poor guy. It's an absolute disgrace that they aren't prosecuting that woman.

You would have to wonder was skin colour a factor in the differences in sentencing between those two cases

..yeah, I have to say those were my thoughts as well at first...but then, I don't think it would be because a black 'victim' also...so a much different/more appropriate sentencing for a black 'victim'..?......and with Brock Turner, a white Caucasian and the same with his victim... I don't think it was a racial thing...

What I mean is, Brock Turner benefited from being a white well to do male, I don't think the colour of the victim mattered at all

...yeah, you couldn't really write it more stereotypical in a movie or something, I know what you mean...

He got more of a punishment than most rapists. Most rapists never even get brought to court, let alone go to jail.

Wrong. Black men get away with rape ALL THE TIME. Brock Turner has faced more punishment than most black rapists do.
