"Austin Wilkerson raped a half conscious young woman, but will serve zero prison time due to yet another judge’s lenient sentencing. Similar to what happened in the Brock Turner case, Judge Butler decided that Austin’s future was more important than his victim’s. For this unjust sentencing, we demand that Judge Butler be removed from the bench in Colorado.

Austin was convicted of sexually assaulting a helpless victim and unlawful sexual assault in May.
Under Colorado’s laws, he should have faced 4-12 years in prison with
the possibility of life if he wasn’t deemed fit for release. But Judge
Butler had doubts about whether Austin could be rehabilitated and so
didn't want to send him to prison. This is not an impartial judge."
