A California judge’s sentencing decision in a rape case at Stanford University has caused an outcry, and now a recall effort.

Brock Turner, a 20-year-old former Stanford swimmer, was convicted on three counts of sexually assaulting an unconscious woman.

The maximum sentence guideline for that conviction is 14 years in state prison, though the prosecutor in the case had asked for six years.

But Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Aaron Persky sentenced Turner to just six months in county jail.

The case made headlines when the victim, an unnamed 23-year-old woman, released to BuzzFeed News a letter she wrote and read aloud in court last week.

Now, several petitions and an effort to recall Judge Persky over his sentencing decision are underway.

BuzzFeed News reporter Stephanie M. Lee and Loyola Law School professor Jessica Levinson joined Take Two to discuss the status of the recall effort and its prospects for success.
