The woman known as “Emily Doe,” the victim in the Brock Turner sexual assault case, has revealed her identity and is sharing her experiences, using her own name, for the first time.
Chanel Miller, whose victim impact statement during the sentencing hearing of the former Stanford University swimmer went viral in 2016, spoke with “60 Minutes” in an interview, which will air on Sunday, Sept. 22.
Miller has also written a memoir, “Know My Name,” which chronicles her life since the trial that resulted in Turner, then 20, being found guilty of three counts of felony sexual assault. He was sentenced to six months in jail by the presiding judge, Aaron Persky, but only served three.
Persky, whose leniency for Brock drew a public outcry, was recalled by voters in 2018.
“‘Know My Name’ will forever transform the way we think about sexual assault, challenging our beliefs about what is acceptable and speaking truth to the tumultuous reality of healing,” a description of Miller’s memoir reads on the publisher’s website. “It also introduces readers to an extraordinary writer, one whose words have already changed our world. Entwining pain, resilience, and humour, this memoir will stand as a modern classic.”
Miller’s book will be released on Sept. 24.
