Court Junkie Brief: Recalling the Judge
In this Court Junkie Brief, I interview Stanford Law Professor Michele Dauber, who led the recall campaign against Judge Aaron Persky, the judge who presided over the Brock Turner case from Episode 58.
We discuss why she decided to start the campaign, Judge Persky’s sentencing history, and death threats she received as a result of her efforts.
