Sexual Assault
Miller was attending the party at Kappa Alpha Fraternity at Stanford University on 17 January night in 2015. Brock Turner, who was a freshman on Swimming scholarship at Stanford was also attending the party. He was 19-years old then. The two got along with each other at the party, drinking beers and dancing. They then left the party to go back to his dorm around 1 am on 18 January 2015. They were walking holding hands together. Miller slipped on a slope behind a wooden shed behind a dumpster and then Turner got down to the ground and started kissing Miller. Turner asked Miller if she wanted to “finger” her, to which she said yes. Turner then “fingered” Miller for a minute.
Two Swedish graduate students spotted Turner on top of Miller, while she was unconscious. After they confronted Turner, Turner ran away from there. One of the students chased Turner, while the other checked if Miller is breathing. The students grabbed Turner and held him to the ground until the campus police arrived and arrested Turner. Miller was taken to the hospital where she regained her consciousness at around 4:15 am. A nurse who administered a Sexual Assault Respons Team examination at the hospital determined that Miller had experienced significant trauma and penetrating trauma. Miller reported that she did not recall anything from the incident. She also stated that she did not remember telephone calls to her sister. She had vomited on the scene before being taken away by ambulances.

Prosecutors recommended six-years prison sentence for Turner. Judge Aaron Persky sentenced Turner to six months in the Santa Clara County Jail on 2 June 2016, followed by three years of probation. Turner was permanently registered as a sex offender.

By 10 June 2016, the online petitions to remove Persky collected over a million signatures. They demanded the Persky’s recall of resignation. County voters recalled Perksy on 5 June 2018. Persky lost the recall vote with 38.49% to 61.51% vote. Persky became the first judge to be recalled by voters in California in 86 years. He also became the first judge in the United States since 1977.
