Brock Turner might have sent pictures of victim's breasts to friends [View all]

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/06/11/brock-turner-may-have-sent-friends-photo-of-victim-during-sexual/

The Stanford University student convicted of sexual assault in a case that has inflamed American public opinion may have sent a photograph of his victim's breasts to friends during the attack.

Detectives subsequently saw a notification appear on Turner's phone reading "WHOS TIT IS THAT" (sic), court documents show. The message came from a fellow member of Stanford's swim team.

Based on the timing of the message and the fact that the victim's bra had been pulled off one of her breasts, police concluded that Turner had probably sent a photograph, though after obtaining a search warrant for his phone they were unable to locate it.



A search of Turner's phone found photographs and text messages relating to drug and alcohol use, despite the fact that a key facet of his defence was that he was an inexperienced drinker caught up in the party culture on campus.
