DAN A TURNER ACTUALLY HAD SOME
STATEMENTS ABOUT THE SENTENCING
AND HE DISAGREED WITH THE SENTENCING.
NOT THAT IT WAS TOO
SHORT, THAT IT WAS TOO SHORT, BUT IT WAS TOO LONG AND HE
SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN SENTENCE IN THE FIRST PLACE.
LET ME GIVE
YOU THE DETAILS ON WHAT HE WROTE.
HE SAYS BROCK ALWAYS
ENJOYED CERTAIN TYPES OF FOOD AND IS A VERY GOOD COOK HIMSELF.
I WAS ALWAYS EXCITED TO BUY HIM A BIG RIBEYE STEAK TO GRILL OR
TO GET HIS FAVORITE SNACK FOR
HIM.
THIS IS A STEEP PRICE TO PAY FOR 20 MINUTES OF ACTION OUT
OF HIS 20+ YEARS OF LIFE.
I WANT TO KNOW WHAT I KNOW IS HIS
FATHER'S A INCARCERATION IS NOT THE APPROPRIATE PUNISHMENT FOR
BROCK.
HE HAS NO PRIOR CRIMINAL HISTORY AND HAS NEVER BEEN
VIOLENCE ANYONE INCLUDING HIS ACTIONS ON THE NIGHT OF JANUARY
17, 2015.
HE DID NOT DO HIS SON ANY FAVORS THERE.
IT IS HARD TO
JUDGE HER PARENTS BECAUSE WHAT WOULDN'T YOU DO TO DEFEND YOUR
KIDS EVEN IF THEY ARE DEAD WRONG QUESTO I GET IT.
ON THE OTHER
HAND, BOY DID YOU USE THE WRONG WORDS THERE.
IF IT WAS NOT YOUR
INTENT, AND I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT
EVEN THOUGH MAYBE I SHOULDN'T THAT IT WAS NOT YOUR INTENT,
DON'T SAY 20 MINUTES OF ACTION.
HAVE SOMEBODY LOOK AT THAT AND
SAY NO, USE DIFFERENT LANGUAGE.
DON'T USE THAT LANGUAGE.
I
THINK I KNOW WHAT YOU MEANT WHICH IS DON'T JUDGE HIM FOR 20
MINUTES OF HIS LIFE WHEN HE IS LIVED 20 YEARS, BUT BE CAREFUL
IN THE WORDS THAT YOU HAVE CHOSEN.
SECONDLY, YOU SAY THERE
WAS NO VIOLENCE HERE.
NOW I CAN'T HELP BUT QUESTION YOUR
INTENT, BECAUSE HAVING SEX WITH AN UNCONSCIOUS WOMAN IS AN ACT
OF VIOLENCE AND IF YOU DO NOT
UNDERSTAND THAT, AND YOU THINK, YOU SEEM TO BE SAYING WHAT IS
THE BIG DEAL?
SHE WAS PASSED OUT AND HE HAD SEX WITH
HER.
THAT IS A BIG DEAL.
THAT IS THE RAPE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT
THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE.
SHE HAD NO IDEA THAT THIS GUY WAS THAT I DO WANT TO GET TOO
GRAPHIC HERE.
YOU SHOULD GET GRAPHIC THOUGH BECAUSE I THINK THE REALITY OF
THE SITUATION IS IMPORTANT.
I'M VERY CURIOUS TO SEE HOW DAN A TURNER WOULD FEEL IF A FEMALE
FAMILY MEMBER OF HIS WAS TREATED THE SAME WAY AS THE VICTIM.
WOULD HE THINK THAT IT'S RATE QUESTO WHEN HE WON JUSTICE
QUESTO HE PROBABLY WOULD.
ORBIT WAS HIM.
WE TALKED ABOUT IN THE PAST.
THERE IS
ACTUALLY MORE RAPE OF MEN THAN THERE ARE IN WOMEN IN THIS
COUNTRY.
IT'S AN AMAZING STAT,
LARGELY BECAUSE OF PRISON RAPE.
NOT EXCLUSIVELY BUT ALMOST
EXCLUSIVELY.
IF YOU SAID TO DAN TURNER, COULD HE HAVE GOTTEN
DRUNK ONE NIGHT, A LOT OF US HAVE GOTTEN DRUNK, SOMETIMES
PASSED OUT, AND IF A GUY JUST CAME IN RATES HIM AN ALLEYWAY
WHEN HE WAS PASSED OUT, WOULD YOU SAY TO HIM, THAT IS NOT
REALLY VIOLENCE.
HE JUST RAPED
YOU ALL YOU WERE PASSED OUT.
OR IF YOU SAID TO THEM, COME ON MAN.
THAT WAS JUST 20 MINUTES OF ACTION.
CAN YOU JUST IMAGINE THAT.
IF IT FEELS THAT CRAZY AND INSANE TO YOU WHEN IT IS A MAN
WHO DOES IT TO ANOTHER MAN, IT SHOULD FEEL JUST AS CRAZY AND
INSANE TO YOU IF IT IS A MAN DOING IT TO A WOMAN.
I JUST WANT YOU TO BROADEN YOUR HORIZONS AND GET A SENSE OF
THE CONTEXT HERE.
I GET IT THAT IT IS HIS DAD AND HE WANTS TO DEFEND HIS SON, BUT
FOR THE REST OF US, THAT IS NOT THE RIGHT WAY TO THINK ABOUT IT.
ONE FINAL THING THAT I WANTED TO BRING UP JUST IN CASE ANYONE
HAS ANY DOUBTS THAT HE WAS TREATED DIFFERENTLY FROM MOST
OTHER RAPE SUSPECTS OR CONVICTS, BROCK ALLEN TURNER'S MUG SHOT
WAS NOT RELEASED BY THE SIN SANTA CLARA COUNTY DEPARTMENT.
THEY DECIDED THAT THEY WERE GOING TO KEEP IT, I DON'T KNOW
WHY AND WHY THEY WOULD NOT RELEASE IT TO JOURNALIST, THE
ONLY IMAGE THAT WAS RELEASED OF THEM AFTER THE STORY BROKE IS
WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE.
THEY RELEASED THIS PICTURE OF HIM
WEARING HIS SUIT, SMILING, IT IS A GREAT PICTURE.
LOOK, HE IS
SQUEAKY CLEAN.
HE IS NOT BAD.
LET'S PROTECT HIS IMAGE THAT IT
WASN'T UNTIL TODAY THAT SANTA CLARA COUNTY DECIDED TO RELEASE
HIS MUG SHOT, AND THAT IS THE FIRST GRAPHIC WE HAVE THERE.
THE MUG SHOT IS NOT EVEN BAD.
WE HAVE SEEN MUCH WORSE.
BUT
AN EARLIER ORDER TO GO OVER THE TOP TO HELP HIM, ARE THEY GOING
OVER THE TOP TO HELP MINORITY DEFENDANTS IN THIS COUNTRY
QUESTO I KNOW WE ARRESTED YOU ON RAPE CHARGES, BUT DO YOU HAVE A
PICTURE OF YOURSELF IN A COINCIDE THAT WE COULD USE
INSTEAD TO GET TO THE PRESS QUESTO IS THAT THE BREAK THAT A
LOT OF THE KIDS IN THE BRONX OR BALTIMORE GETTING?
OR IN
RULE REST VIRGINIA?
IT IS NOT JUST THAT HE IS WHITE.
THAT
IS A COMPONENT OF IT, IF IT WAS A BLACK ATHLETE AT STANFORD,
WHAT THEY'VE GOTTEN THE SAME TREATMENT THAT.
PROBABLY BECAUSE HE IS MAKING A LOT OF MONEY FOR THE UNIVERSITY
AND THAT IS WHAT THEY CARE ABOUT MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE.
THERE A LOT OF DIFFERENT FACTORS.
THEIR ATHLETES, THERE
ARE THOSE WHO ARE RICHER, RACE
IS A FACTOR, AND I DO KNOW HOW WELL THEY ARE NOT WEALTHY HE IS
BUT HE IS GOING TO STANFORD.
EVERYTHING IS CHECKED OFF ON HIS BENEFIT.
WHITE, CHECK.
PRIVILEGE, CHECK.
GOING TO STANFORD, CHECK.
HOW CAN WE
HELP YOU?
THAT IS NOT THE TREATMENT THE REST OF US GET.
