Brock Turner released from jail after serving for three months by Jane Lee on Sep 2, 2016, 9:19 AM Advertisement
 SAN JOSE (Reuters) - A former Stanford University swimmer, whose six-month jail sentence was decried by protesters as too lenient following his conviction of sexually assaulting an unconscious woman in 2015, was released from a San Francisco-area jail on Friday. Brock Turner, 20, was escorted out of the Santa Clara County Main Jail in San Jose shortly after 6 a.m. local time, just three months after he entered. Inmates sentenced to county jail in California typically serve just 50 percent of their sentences before their release.
