        You meant to say: Brock Turner, convicted sexual assaulter. Who cares if he went to Stanford? Who cares if he's a swimmer? He committed a sexual assault and was found guilty. No other description necessary.

        If a new trial can get us a new sentence then I am all for it. The 3-month wrist slap is a travesty that could be corrected.

        Why is the fact he is a former Stanford swimmer more important than his current status as a Convicted Sex Offender - 3 Felony Counts of Sexual Assult. " Brock Turner convicted of 3 Felony Counts of Sexual Assult wants case thrown out" the fact he used to swim means NOTHING

        This cannot happen. No one cares that he was once a swimmer, only that he is a #rapist. #BrockTurner is a #rapist who should have received a harsher sentence in the first place. #Ibelievesurvivors of #sexualassault #endrapeculture

        'ex-Stanford swimmer' is a weird spelling of Rapist.

        It turns out that Brock doesn’t like being turned out in prison. Too bad so sad actions have consequences.

        As a former college swimmer, you know him being a swimmer has nothing to do with him being a friggin rapist, right? Unless he raped someone at practice, feel free to just call him a rapist.

        Why does the media insist on calling this rapist a swimmer. What does that have to do with him raping a woman? He’s a garbage human being,no one cares if he swims.
