He'd been a three-time All-American swimmer at Oakwood High School, outside Dayton, Ohio. On the night of Jan. 17, he went to a party at the Kappa Alpha fraternity house, where he met a 22-year-old woman who wasn't a Stanford student. She'd come to the party with her younger sister.Early the next morning, two Swedish grad students riding their bikes past the frat house saw Brock on top of the woman on the ground behind a dumpster. She wasn't moving. When they stopped, Brock ran, and they chased him down and pinned him until police got there. The woman was unconscious. She woke up hours later in the hospital with no memory of what happened.Brock was charged and went to trial. In March 2016, a jury convicted him of three felonies for sexually assaulting an unconscious, intoxicated woman. He faced up to 14 years, and prosecutors asked for six.On June 2, 2016, Santa Clara County Judge Aaron Persky sentenced him to six months in county jail and three years' probation. Persky said prison would have a "severe impact" on him. And then Brock's dad, Dan Turner, wrote a letter to the judge saying his son shouldn't pay such a steep price for "20 minutes of action." People lost their minds (understandably).What really blew this up, though, was the victim's statement. She'd read a 7,000-word letter to Brock in court, and it went viral. Millions of people read it within days, and it was even read out loud on the floor of Congress. For years, she was only known as "Emily Doe." In 2019, she revealed her name, Chanel Miller, and wrote a bestselling memoir called Know My Name.Brock only served three months. He got out on Sept. 2, 2016, for good behavior, moved back to Ohio, and has to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life. USA Swimming banned him for life. His appeal was denied in 2018.The fallout was huge. California voters recalled Judge Persky in June 2018, the first time a California judge had been recalled in more than 80 years. California also passed a law requiring prison time for sexually assaulting an unconscious or intoxicated person, so a sentence like Brock's can't happen there again.Now here's the new part. The Daily Mail says it tracked him down. When he was last photographed in 2019, he was making about $12 an hour working on a factory floor and living with his parents. Now he's 31, reportedly going by his middle name, Allen, and has worked his way up to a supplier quality specialist at the same Dayton-area manufacturer that hired him after his conviction (Tark manufacturing). Public records show he paid $162,500 for a house in Oakwood, the same suburb he grew up in. The Daily Mail also says the family that rallied so hard around him after his arrest "has fallen apart," but the excerpt doesn't say how.The story is coming out now because the "Cornell 7" lawsuit has people talking about how colleges handle sexual assault again.From the hallowed halls of Stanford University to a production job in a factory (not that there’s anything wrong with that)</blockquote>
