The woman who was sexually assaulted while unconscious outside a Stanford fraternity in 2015 is releasing a book and making her name public for the first time.

Chanel Miller's book "Know My Name" will be released on Sept. 24.

Stanford law professor Michele Dauber is applauding the move.

"She is a very talented writer and is good at making real the implications of sexual violence and the mishandling of sexual violence by powerful institutions," said Dauber.

Miller was sexually assaulted by Brock Turner. He was a freshman at Stanford at the time. She was a recent college graduate and was attending a Stanford fraternity party.

Wednesday afternoon, ABC7 News spoke to Congresswoman Jackie Speier, who led the efforts to have members of Congress read Miller's statement on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives in June of 2016.

"I'm looking forward to reading her memoir cause I'm sure it's going to be a powerful example of how we can overcome adversity," said Speier. "Let's never forget though that Brock Turner almost got off scot-free."

Judge Aaron Persky sentenced Turner to six months in county jail, even though he faced up to 14 years in prison. Persky said at the time he was worried about the impact a long sentence would have on Turner, a swimmer who once was considered a contender for the Olympics.

Take a look at full coverage of the Brock Turner sexual assault case.

Persky became the first California judge to be recalled in 80 years. Professor Dauber was the chairperson of the committee to recall Persky.

"I think people are going to read the book and be convinced that Aaron Persky had to go and the recall was correct. I want to point out that many victims of sexual violence are subjected every day to the same mistreatment from the legal system and universities like Stanford," Dauber said.

Stanford University released this statement:

"We applaud Ms. Miller's bravery in talking publicly about the ordeal she has experienced and the horrible act that she suffered on our campus. As a university, we are continuing our efforts to prevent and respond effectively to sexual violence, with the ultimate goal of eradicating it from our community."

Miller's book was profiled Wednesday morning in the New York Times. The paper says she was paid for the book but the publisher declined to say how much.

Lindsey Mansfield, a survivor's advocate with the YWCA of Silicon Valley, says the #MeToo movement continues to be empowering for many.

TIMELINE: How case against Brock Turner ignited debate on sexual assault

It's been more than a year since former Stanford swimmer Brock Turner was convicted of sexually assaulting a woman after a campus party.

"For some people, it may mean stepping forward and sharing something. For others, it may mean listening to other peoples' stories, or receiving support around their assault," said Mansfield.

Miller also gave an interview to 60 Minutes in advance of the release of her book.

Well this should be a shitshow.

Serious question to all the proto incels in this thread. If you had too much to drink and passed out only to have some ugly guy fingering your asshole would you be ok with it or would you feel humiliated and violated? Because that's how this poor girl felt.

Fuck this guy.

 

[Bibendum]

Again, feel free to post any evidence I might have missed, I am genuinely openminded on this, if there is anything I will look at it and possibly change my mind.

If you take a look at the court documents, there were two witnesses who observed the victim presumably just prior to the sexual assault. One passerby reported that he spotted her passed out behind the dumpster, alone. The other claimed that as he walked by, he saw a guy standing over the victim using a cellphone, illuminating her with its flashlight; he said that he told the guy to roll her onto her side so she could breathe without risk of aspiration, but the guy just stood there without responding until the witness himself got on his knees to check the victim's pulse, whereupon he noticed the guy had disappeared. It was unclear from my reading of the documents if the guy with the phone was ever identified, but the possibility exists that it was Turner. Either Turner happened upon her after the guy with the phone left the scene, or he was the guy with the phone and he returned to the scene after the witness departed. In any case, if we take these two witnesses at their word, it suggests that the victim was unconscious before the assault began and that Turner should've reasonably known this.

It's pretty horrifying that campus drinking culture is to the point where as long as the person passed out by the dumpster (with a creepy guy lurking about her) has a pulse and is rolled on her side, you just walk away and don't call 911 and hang around until the EMTs are on scene.

I will fully bite the bullet in saying this: I have a strong belief that if Brock Turner was black or Muslim, you wouldn't be leaping through hoops to defend him.

Lol do you have no shame at all? Most people, upon realising that they accused a stranger of hating black and brown people based on absolutely nothing, would feel a little bad. They would feel like they had used racial discrimination as a bludgeon, objectifying minorities to score points in a tard fight over nothing. You on the other hand, don't even apologise, you just change targets!

despite the fact that he's well breached the threshold where, I suspect, if Brock Turner's name was Abu Turmanijad, you would be calling for his head on a spike.

I wish I was progressive enough to treat minorities like ammunition.

>Liberals are the real racists!
I'm making a deduction based on the fact that this is a conversation on A&H with a guy who has "nigger" in his tag, and that he seems to be applying a cartoonish level of skepticism to this case. Sure, maybe the guy isn't a racist. Maybe he just thinks rape isn't a big deal. Or maybe he's applying a titanic amount of skepticism to the case as some kind of response to all the false rape accusations,. Whichever one I'd pick, you'd accuse me of insufficient charity, while you in turn call me a racist for accusing other people of racism.

 

[Frank_Jaeger]

Title IX kangaroo courts are bullshit and the campus rape shit gets exaggerated to the point of hysteria, but this is a pretty open and shut case. Literally caught red-handed, or halfway up a passed out girl's cunt-handed at least.

 

[sperginity]

for drunkenly fingerblasting a fellow drunk, we will never know if he was really guilty of the allegations against him or not.

Two witnesses aren't good enough proof of what happened? Are you skeptical because the koran requires 3 male witnesses to believe a rape victim?

She's going to make millions. Can someone rape me too?

well, if you ever do get raped, you're going to remember saying this and it will make things that much harder for you.

 

[Tasty Tatty]

A&H whenever a story about sexual assault pops up: "Rape culture isn't real!"
Also A&H:

Yes, because one case is representative of every case in the country? Also, people here are condemning the guy, while also being mock-ish about the woman.

And yes, rape culture isn't real. Criminals-with-money-or-influence-get-away-with-anything culture is.

You dishonest piece of shit, what do you base your theory that I would accuse you of insufficient charity on? I have said two things in this thread, that people are skeptical about this because the media has cried wolf, and that you argue like a redditor. You accused me of wanting to kill brown people, and when that didn't work you 'bit the bullet' and accused someone else in the exact same way. You can't claim you had some logical justification, you are just throwing out any argument you can think of, the only thought you put into it is 'that will shut them up'.

You just desperately need to feel outrage, and anyone who gets in the way of your righteous fury must be a racist, sexist, rape loving incel. At least, that's how it looks from here. I mean you have had some good tantrums on the farms before, but this one is phenomenal. You are ridiculously upset at the thought that some stranger on the other side of the planet doesn't believe this woman, or doesn't trust the media. Do you not think that is strange? It's like you bought a lotto ticket and flipped out when your girlfriend didn't immediately tell her boss to get fucked.

 

[Scratch This Nut]

ome stranger on the other side of the planet doesn't believe this woman, or doesn't trust the media.

Hi, guy! You mentioned earlier that you were skeptical about this since a lot of accusations turn out to be false. But this one has witnesses and evidence that it was rape so why are you skeptical this time? Because it kinda comes across like you’re playing devil’s advocate just for the sake of riling people up.

 

[RadicalCentrist]

If you had too much to drink and passed out only to have some ugly guy fingering your asshole would you be ok with it or would you feel humiliated and violated? Because that's how this poor girl felt.

Don't remind me I lost my best dealer that way

Fugg I should write a book

Hi friend! Actually I didn't say I was skeptical, I said that the skepticism is not fueled by incelerity, but by pattern recognition. My position regarding Brock Turner hasn't changed, and doesn't matter. It might seem to you like all I am doing is being contrary, but it seems to me like people are unreasonably invested in promoting their dogma on this issue. It's really really fucking weird. Part of me assumes this is the yalp of the bourgeoisie, despairing that the disenfranchised now refuse to touch the stove. But I would rather think there is something I am missing.

 

[Don Herbert]

The Swedes were just jelly that they weren't getting q-tip's attention. I'm sure there was enough sexual assault to go around. They could have avoided all of this.

Well, that casts things in a totally different light. I've seen a reasonable amount of reporting on this case, and none of it really suggested any evidence that she'd just collapsed somewhere and been subsequently abandoned by people who walked by.

If Mr Turner struck out that night and then just decided to fingerblast some passed out woman he tripped over in an alley, that's pretty gay.

Well there’s being skeptical and then there’s ignoring all the evidence that it’s true.

What dogma? That some people are rapists and that it’s bad?

See, now you are being dishonest too. Or can you really not fathom the idea of someone saying "fuck it, everything the media says is bullshit, I'm not going invest yet again in believing their bullshit only to have it thrown in my face at a later date, regardless of what this guy did"? Have you never met someone like that? About global warming, evolution, abortion, guns, Trump, Obama, fucking pick a topic? We're on page 7 so this case has been discussed pretty thoroughly, but you were all doing this shit on the first page - the idea that someone didn't hate Brock Turner because they weren't paying attention never occurred to you, either you hate Brock Turner or you are a racist rape loving incel. Do you not see how fucking strange that is from outside?

No need to ask if you really believe this issue has divided people into the camps "not ok with rape" and "rape is pretty sweet", because of course you don't.

This isn't "what the media said", this is what a court of law says. At this point, you are expecting everyone else to just take it for granted that other people are such radical skeptics that they automatically discount anything they did not immediately experience with their senses. Very few people actually live like this, and we consider most of the ones that do to suffer from severe brain damage.

Ok then if all your opinions on this are based on “patterns” regardless of how each incident plays out then that’s not much better.

You have the freedom of speech to have whatever opinion you want and I have the freedom to call it dumb and vice versa.

Sarcasm is kinda hard to convey over text.

Lol well look at the two Rhodes scholars.

No I don't think anyone should take it for granted "that other people are such radical skeptics that they automatically discount anything they did not immediately experience with their senses" because nobody on the fucking planet thinks that you disingenuous faggot.

No I don't base all of my opinions on “patterns” regardless of how each incident plays out, because that is fucking mental you simpering halfwit.

Try again, this time read what I wrote and respond to it, like you are having a conversation, instead of pretending to be retarded or building strawmen to take down or whatever the fuck this is.

You said sandniggers earlier in this thread genius. Nice deductions. Most of you seem too retarded to read, except for Bibendum who actually presented some evidence to counter Turner’s story. Next time save the hysterics and be more like Bibendum.
