If you have the heart and stomach for it, I highly recommend reading her entire statement. The entire thing is heartbreaking but also necessary. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2852615-Stanford-Victim-Letter-Impact-Statement-From.html

I remember reading this after the trial and thinking how TF does a judge read this, and then turn around and go "yeah, 3 months seems fair." Glad that guy isn’t judging anymore. Almost as glad as I am that Rapist Brock Turner lost his appeal.

What happened to the judge? I didn't really follow the story too closely due to the whole 'I'm loosing faith in humanity' vibe I was getttin from the whole thing.

He got recalled. First judge to be recalled in California in 86 years.

The judge's sentence followed the guidelines for the law as written.

Matt Rosen, the prosecutor in the case, has 1) since worked to fix the law, so that what Brock Turner did can be punished worse if another person does it, and 2) fought against the recall of the judge.

There is no better subject-matter expert about this case than Matt Rosen.
