People are outraged about the leniency shown to rapist Brock Turner.
The Stanford swimmer was sentenced to just six months in county jail after raping an unconscious woman following a frat party they had both attended.
The light sentence is a slap in the face to the victim who poured her heart out to the court in a 12-page statement.
Petitions demanding the recall of Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Aaron Persky, who presided over the case, has been signed by over 250,000 people. A recall website has been created by a Stanford law professor.
Turner received only six months of jail time and three years of probation after being convicted of three felony sex abuse counts. He could have faced more than a decade in prison.
