Brock Turner & Candon Dahle: A Promising Young Man- Part 1

Six months in jail. Three months actually served. That's what former Stanford swimmer Brock Turner received after being convicted of sexually assaulting an unconscious Chanel Miller.

In another case, Candon Dahle received 180 days in jail following years of sexual abuse of a child.

Different cases. Different circumstances. But both raise a question we can't stop thinking about: Why does the future of the person who committed sexual violence so often become part of the conversation about what punishment is appropriate?

In Part 1, Tyrella and Nikita revisit the Brock Turner case, Chanel Miller's powerful victim-impact statement, and the case against Candon Dahle. They examine how we measure the harm of sexual violence, what research tells us about its long-term effects, and whether the justice system adequately accounts for consequences that may not leave visible injuries.

And just when the answer seems obvious, another case raises a much harder question.

Part 2 is available now for patrons and drops Thursday for everyone else.
