Joe Biden Hails Stanford Rape Victim as a 'Warrior'

Jun 10, 2016, 01:46 PM

Vice President Joe Biden penned an open letter to the Stanford rape victim calling her “a warrior — with a solid steel spine,” saying that he is "filled with furious anger" over the unusually lenient sentence given to the man who sexually assaulted her.

In his letter, which was published on Buzzfeed on Thursday, Biden condemned the sexual assault—where Stanford student, Brock Turner, 20, was found on top of an unconscious woman on campus— and a "broken" culture.
