The state's Commission on Judicial Performance, which disciplines state judges, found Persky handled the sentencing appropriately.The recall campaign has raised money from donors nationwide since launching nearly two years ago. It took that long to collect the necessary voter signatures and clear bureaucratic and legal hurdles. That delay, once viewed as a hindrance to the recall campaign, may have worked in its favor because of the recent attention given to unreported sexual abuse and harassment of women.And it remains to be seen whether Persky's academic argument that the recall threatens judicial independence will resonate as deeply as the message against Persky."That doesn't have the same 'oomph' that the other argument has," said University of Southern California political science professor Sherry Bebitch Jeffe.Persky did not respond to requests for interviews from The Associated Press placed with his court and with the court's spokesman.He told the San Jose Mercury News editorial board that he agrees the criminal justice system needs to treat sexual assault victims better."There is an underlying deep frustration among actual victims of sexual assault and women in general about the criminal justice system not taking sexual assault and domestic violence seriously. It's a very genuine and important problem," Persky said. "The passion is authentic, the end is justified, let's increase sexual assault reporting. Let's do criminal justice reform where it's smart to do so."But he also stood by the sentence he gave Turner, saying he's been unfairly targeted as the "face of rape" by recall supporters."When the case came out and there's the social media outrage, my personal opinion was that I can take the heat, I signed on to this job, I promised to essentially ignore public opinion," he said. "That's the promise we make every juror make when they walk into the courtroom."Persky is backed by dozens of law school professors, retired judges and the Santa Clara Bar Association.Santa Clara County residents will also be asked to vote for one of two lawyers on the ballot vying to replace Persky if he's recalled.Joshua Spivak, an elections scholar who studies recalls, said the "recall of judges almost never happen."He said the last judge recalled by voters in the United States was in 1977. 2318

The sweetheart deal comes a decade after the 4th Judicial District Attorney's Office declined to prosecute Gonzalez after police accused him of assaulting young girls."I was in awe with the plea deal," Valerie Montoya said.Montoya is outraged at a 2019 plea deal offered to Gonzalez, a man who sexually assaulted her granddaughter who was just 4-years-old at the time."Why should this man get to ride off in to the sunset like he did nothing?"Montoya cared for her granddaughter in her mother's absence, but she couldn't always be there.Long work hours forced Montoya to rely on help from neighbors.Gonzalez and his wife lived across the street and frequently volunteered to watch her granddaughter."If there were days I might be late from work, I would call Hector or Susan (Hector's wife) or text them and be like, 'I'm running late can you grab the kids?''Montoya says Gonzalez and his wife were always willing to help out.As time went on, Gonzalez was babysitting Valerie's granddaughter overnight and on weekends, all while his wife was reportedly away.Red flags went up in Montoya's head after Gonzalez came over one day for a pool party."Hector grabbed my granddaughters hand and said, 'C'mon you're going to stay with me today.'" Montoya said. "My granddaughter had turned around and looked at me and had tears in her eyes,. That plays in my head over and over because I didn't know if the tears in her eyes were because she was leaving grandma's house, or was it because she was going to go over there and something bad was going to happen?"The 4-year-old girl eventually broke her silence to her family and was taken to Memorial Hospital for a sexual assault kit test.Arrest papers document months of molestation.According to investigators, the abuse began in Sept. 2017 and continued through July of 2018 — just a couple of weeks before Gonzalez was arrested.Looking back, Montoya says she missed several warning signs. She says Gonzalez would frequently buy her granddaughter clothes and gifts."I have an immense amount of guilt," Montoya said. "I think that I should have caught this and the red flags you talk about, I didn't see anything at that time and afterwards, I think of knowing she's across the street with him and I'm in my own house."Gonzalez faced a total of five felony sexual assault charges and a misdemeanor unlawful sexual contact charge.Instead of going to trial, the 4th Judicial District Attorney's Office offered Gonzalez a plea deal.Gonzalez pleaded guilty to one felony sexual assault charge and the misdemeanor unlawful sexual contact charge in exchange for prosecutors dropping all other charges.He accepted the deal and received a four-year probation sentence."People go to jail for far less than what this man did," Montoya said.Since Gonzelz accepted the plea deal, two more of his alleged victims have come forward, claiming they too were molested by Gonzalez a decade ago. Both say the District Attorney's Office did nothing.Mikayla Windley says Gonzalez molested her over a period of five years.She says it started when she was just five years old. She eventually had the courage and strength to report it when she was 9."(Gonzalez) said, 'Do not tell anybody or I'll kill you and your family,'" Windley said.Windley says Gonzalez would babysit her while her parents were out of town. Although she's a grown adult now, she's emotionally scarred for life."I'm paranoid about everything," she said. "Ever since all this has happened, I'm scared of him finding me, killing me, molesting me again. It's just changed who I am completely."Another woman, Kassondra Madson, says Gonzalez began molesting her when she was four years old."After that, it carried on until I was maybe seven years old, and then it was actual rape," Madson said. "He took away my self-confidence and he took away my childhood really."Madson and Windley said they both talked with police.Back in 2009, Gonzalez was arrested on four counts of sexual assault on a child.In 2011, the case was officially dismissed and closed at the request of the 4th Judicial District Attorney's Office.Court documents show the case was dropped in part because "more investigation was required," presumably to gather additional evidence.So what happened?District Attorney Dan May's spokesperson, Lee Richards, has avoided questions about the case."Mr. May is unavailable as he will be in trial for the next month or so," Richards said while responding to a request for comment.Richards also did not respond when asked prior to the start of May's current trial whether May would be available to discuss the 2009 case against Gonzalez in December.Madson and Windley have to live every day with memories of what happened more than a decade ago. They hope one day, justice will be served."I don't want to be portrayed as a victim. I am a survivor," Madson said.As for Montoya, she sold her house and moved to a different part of El Paso County."We lived in our home for 15 years," Montoya said. "We had no intentions of ever moving, but at the end of the day, you can only rearrange your living room so many ways. You still have to go out that front door, and (Gonzalez' house across the street) has become that house."After pleading guilty to sexually assaulting Montoya's granddaughter, Gonzalez sold his house and moved to New York.According to court records, he'll remain on probation until 2023.Madson and Windley hope by sharing their stories, more people will come forward and report sexual abuse.If you're not comfortable reporting an assault to law enforcement, there are numerous agencies throughout Colorado (and nationwide) that specialize in helping people who have through traumatic experiences.Here is a list of some of those resources: 5742

The whales spend their summers in the Arctic feeding on tiny shrimp-like, bottom-dwelling creatures called amphipods before migrating 10,000 miles (16,090 kilometers) to winter off Mexico, where the females give birth. Though they eat all along their route, they are typically thinning by the time they return north along the West Coast each spring. 349

The report on space and the US military was delayed and not unveiled on Aug. 1 as originally anticipated. A US defense official previously said the report's delay was due to minor tweaks and revisions that were still ongoing.On Tuesday, Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis told reporters the Pentagon was still "working our way through this" despite an earlier leaked proposal that said the Pentagon planned to elevate Space Command to a major Combatant Command.Mattis said he "absolutely" supported the move and that such an elevation was "certainly one thing that we can establish."Asked if such a move fell short of Trump's call for a separate military service, Mattis said the department was "in complete agreement" with the President and his concern for space, saying Pence was "the point man" on this issue. 809

The sign reads: "If you choose not to wear a mask, we respectfully ask that you postpone your visit. We will be happy to debate the efficacy of masks with you when this is all over and you come in to sell your dead grandmother's clothes."Bingham said she has been overwhelmed by emails and phone calls she has been getting from people all around the world. People have even visited her Instagram store to place orders from other countries as their way to show support for her business."Nobody likes wearing a mask. This isn't fun. It is uncomfortable, especially here in Phoenix. It is hot, but it's literally the smallest gesture we can make," said Bingham.Bingham thanked the majority of her customers for wearing a mask, but said there were a few who wanted to fight back."They're like you know the masks don't work right? Or something about carbon dioxide retention, thinking that it's bad for you to wear the mask or that you look stupid wearing a mask," said Bingham.The store re-opened on June 1 and like many other businesses has been struggling during this pandemic, while thinking about their own safety and livelihood."Vintage clothing is definitely not an emergency. This is not a reason anybody needs to leave the house right now. It's not like I sell baby formula or eggs," said Bingham.It seems like her sassy and sarcastic mask mandate message has hit a nerve."People from across the country are calling to thank us," said Bingham. She has received messages from Europe and Asia."Somebody from Abu Dhabi even reached out to us yesterday and made a purchase from us," said Bingham.She played one of many voicemail messages she received, this one left by a woman thanking the business for taking their strong stance."More people need to be like you and maybe things will make a change. God bless you," said the woman who left the voicemail.Bingham said being young and healthy, she feels confident that someone like her would survive COVID-19, but she does not want to be a carrier."I can't put my employees and customers at risk," said Bingham, adding that in a small business with a small staff, an exposure could lead to the closure of her store."Some people are trying to make this some kind of a political statement but people are not dying along party lines," said Bingham.She said wearing a mask is a small sacrifice everyone should make. "It really is. If we can do this and get it under control, we can get back to normal ‘til there's a vaccine," said Bingham.This story originally reported by Sonu Wasu on abc15.com. 2540
