Is this a case of getting away with a crime just because one’s father works at the DA? Well, the Daily Mail reports that teenage pervert Bowen Turner whose father works at the DA has been handed probation for s*xually assaulting a pastor’s daughter Chloe Bess thanks to a plea deal “which saw his crimes downgraded to assault and battery.”
A second woman named Dallas Stoller who Bowen Turner allegedly molested died in 2018 died suddenly in November 2021 even before he could be tried on her allegations.
Victims of Bowen Turner, 19, say they’re appalled he only received a slap on on the wrist from Orangeburg County Judge Markley Dennis last week after admitting to assaulting pastor’s daughter Chloe Bess in 2019. He was able to strike the deal and avoid jail because he was a juvenile when the crime was committed.
Turner was also accused of raping a second victim, 18 year-old Dallas Stoller, who died suddenly in November 2021. That charge against the teenage sex pest was subsequently dropped. And Turner was accused of a third rape in a separate county, although those charges were dropped too.
Bess, who agreed to be identified as Turner’s victim, bravely spoke out to condemn his sentence. And she blasted her attacker’s 50 breaches of his home arrest bond conditions, which saw him break the rules to go golfing, visit a Brazilian steakhouse and even travel out-of-state to visit a car dealership.
Turner’s father Walt works as an investigator for South Carolina first circuit solicitor David Pascoe, FitsNews reported. That meant the case was handed over to second circuit solicitor Bill Weeks. There’s no proof of impropriety, but locals say it has uncomfortable echoes of the scandal-ridden Murdaugh family.
Their multiple alleged crimes and involvement in at least three deaths were covered-up thanks to powerful connections within the South Carolina legal community.
Turner, initially charged with sexual misconduct, entered a plea deal with the prosecution on Friday. He was ultimately convicted of assault and battery, and handed probation, The Times and Democrat reported.
Turner was given the easy sentence because he was a juvenile at the time of the attack.
Nothing but white privilege here.
