Re: White privilege
What does rape have to do with this case?
He wasn't found guilty of rape.!
More sensationalising for headline grabbing and *bleep* poor journalism.
Did we really need another topic based on the rape lie.?

Re: White privilege
From the article ... The fact that authorities withheld Brock Turner's mug shot for 16 months is being pegged as an illustration of the racial disparities within America's criminal justice system.

Re: White privilege
I posted this on another thread Maryjane - my sincere apologies for the repeat.
I truly believe that if Turner had been black or Hispanic or any other ethnicity than white his mug shot would have been exactly that a REAL mug shot and things would have played out in court far differently than they did.
