On Friday September 2nd, former Stanford University swimmer Brock Turner got released from prison for good behavior after serving three out of his 6 months charged. He was arrested for raping an unconscious woman at a party back in January of 2015.
Prosecutors asked for Turner to be sentenced for six years, but the judge who sentenced him, littled it to six months because alcohol was involved and him showing remorse to his actions.
Here are 5 things that are longer than Brock Turner's measly sentence.
1. Martha Stewart's Jail Time
Stewart served five months in jail for insider trading.

Ocean released Channel Orange back in 2012. His much anticipated album Blond, was released four years later in August of 2016.
3. A College Student's Summer Vacation

As stated above, the rape occurred in January of 2015. Turner was convicted in June of 2016. It took a year and a half.
