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. You can follow Professor Dauber on Twitter @mldauber, and also follow their ongoing efforts to put violence against women on the ballots on Twitter @EnoughVoter. Their website should be up shortly, so be on the lookout for that at enoughisenoughvoter.org. Please consider supporting Court Junkie with as little as $3 a month via Patreon.com/CourtJunkie.
