Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office
The Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office on Monday released the mugshot of Brock Turner, the 20-year-old Stanford University student sentenced to six months in jail for the rape of a 22-year-old unconscious woman behind a dumpster. Turner's case garnered international attention over the weekend after BuzzFeed News published the entirety of the victim's sentencing statement, in which she scorned the rapist for having done such detrimental damage to her life; and the judge for having meted out such a short sentence because of fear of causing undue harm to Turner's Olympic swimming aspirations. The case took on more controversy when Turner's father's statement was released, in which he defended his son from harsher punishment and suggested Brock should not have his life ruined for "20 minutes of action."
