Trump's View - "A steep price to pay for 20 minutes of action’: Dad defends Stanford sex offender"

Reading the Dad's defense of his son's actions as a "steep price to pay for 20 minutes of action," you can see why Donald Trump is so irate that women are fighting back against his actions or even calling them criminal.

“His life will never be the one that he dreamed about and worked so hard to achieve,” Dan A. Turner wrote in a letter arguing that his son should receive probation, not jail time. “That is a steep price to pay for 20 minutes of action out of his 20 plus years of life.”

“He will never be his happy go lucky self with that easy going personality and welcoming smile,” the letter says, noting that the former Olympic hopeful is now a registered sex offender.

In an interview with The Washington Post early Monday morning, Santa Clara District Attorney Jeff Rosen confirmed that the letter had been submitted to the court before Turner’s sentencing last week and criticized the letter for reducing a brutal sexual assault to “20 minutes of action.” He also slammed Turner and his father for refusing to own up to the crime.

“To this day, the defendant denies what he did,” Rosen said, adding that Turner “preyed upon” his victim and displayed violence.

1. Parents...

This is old news. None the less it is a very heartless and shallow statement by the father, not surprising though. Parents can be very misguided when protecting / defending their children. I am guessing he would have a different take on that 20 min if it had been his daughter Turner raped.
