A Northern California prosecutor has removed Judge Aaron Persky, who is targeted for recall because of his handling of Stanford University swimmer Brock Turner's sexual assault case, from hearing a new sexual abuse case.

U.S. Vice President Joe Biden penned an emotional open letter in the wake of the Stanford rape case saying he is “filled with furious anger.”

Potential jurors are refusing to serve for the judge who gave convicted Stanford University rapist Brock Turner a six-month sentence for his crimes.
