Judge dismisses Brock Turner's sexual assault appeal: report

On Wednesday, a California judge said there is "substantial evidence" in the case of Brock Turner, a former Stanford student who was convicted of sexual assault in 2015.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth District in California dismissed Turners' appeal that he filed last month.

“Substantial evidence that defendant knew Jane 1 was unconscious at the time he sexually penetrated her with his finger,” the court wrote.
