Key Witness in Stanford Sexual Assault Case Breaks Silence

It’s been almost a year a half since Stanford University swimmer Brock Turner sexually assaulted a woman on the California campus. A key witness in the case has now broken his silence.

In an interview with ABC News, Swedish doctoral student Carl-Fredrik Arndt said he and his friend Peter Jonsson were riding their bikes through campus in January 2015 when they spotted Turner on top of a woman behind a dumpster outside a fraternity house. Jonsson immediately sensed something wasn’t right, Arndt said.

“She wasn’t moving,” he told ABC News during an interview in Palo Alto, California, on Tuesday night. “She was half-naked.”

The two Swedes decided to intervene. Jonsson shouted at Turner, “What the f--- are you doing?”

There was an exchange of words, and then Turner fled as the two men approached, Arndt recalled.

Jonsson chased down Turner while Arndt stayed with the victim. Arndt said the woman was unconscious the entire time and he checked “to make sure she was still alive.”

It's a good thing those guys stopped to check things out. A lot of people would not have gotten involved.

Yes, otherwise it would be a rape/murder investigation, kudos to them both!

I wish O'Reilly still did a segment on naming poor judges based on really bad decision making.This judge and the one who gave an 18 year old probation because he was raised in extreme wealth would both make the list.
