The judge followed the advice of the probation officer who recommended the lenient sentence. Is Dauber also trying to have that officer fired? If not then this will just repeat itself next time the probation officer decides to go soft on somebody.

It may have been the probation officer's recommendation but as a judge you still do not have to abide by the recommendation, it's his choice in the end. Judge Persky should have reviewed the severity of the crime. Had that been a friend, relative, or daughter, I bet that would not have been the outcome of this awful case. I'm not even going to bring in the race card, which is also of concern. I truly think this judge should be recalled. How Brock Turner only received the next to NOTHING sustenance is so beyond me. Money also has it's rank and privilege in Brock Turner's case.

I agree with JR; the judge followed the recommendation of the probation officer. For the public who think the defendant should have been sentenced to 15 or 20 years in prison, I don't think the judge could have imposed a sentence that was so far off the probation report. I think the main problem with this case is that the District Attorney's office should have brought a charge of sexual assault or attempted rape. It was difficult for me to find information regarding EXACTLY what occurred as opposed to the public outrage comments. After reading the FACTS that came out in the trial, I changed my mind and came to agree with the judge. I think someone should investigate this Stanford law professor who is pushing this recall because she seems to be responding the headlines and public outrage rather than the actual facts of the case.

There's more than one kind of cruel and unusual punishment. Why can't we be like Malaysia and publicly whip Brock, but dispense with this idea of registering as a sex offender. It's hard not to see that by itself as a severe
punishment in its own right, which does nothing to help make sure this type of crime doesn't get committed again. Ms. Dauber has repeatedly says that the drunken stupor in which the perpetrator and victim both found themselves had no connection to the crime.

That shows how much of an ideologue she truly is.

This misguided campaign to unseat a respected judge should be abandoned. The non-lawyer's motives must be questioned.
No, do not blame the victim. Blame people who now seek notoriety at her emotional expense and at the public's financial expense.
Who wrote the probation narative, Prof. Dauber? It does not appear to have been written by one person.
