After we posted a link to the story about Alison Stokke, the high-school track athlete who has been unwillingly turned into an internet sex object, sharp-eyed reader Evan emailed with the observation that Stokke's father is the same guy who earlier this year defended a cop who jerked off on a stripper during a routine traffic stop. “She got what she wanted,” Al Stokke said, of the stripper. “She’s an overtly sexual person.”

 

The hits they keep on comin'. Stokke also defended a sheriff's son who was convicted of participating in a videotaped gang-rape. From the OC Weekly's account of the sentencing hearing:

Wow. To be perfectly clear, this is NOT to say that Alison Stokke has been in ANY WAY deserving of the harassment that has been heaped upon her for simply participating in a high-school track meet. But it's noteworthy that her father, who is understandably deeply concerned for his daughter's safety, has defended several men who have done things far more reprehensible than link to or post photos on the internet without permission.

In other words, it's his daughter, and of course he's doing all he can to ensure she's safe now that her photo is plastered all over the internet in a sexual context. But he seemed to not only lack concern but to show outright disdain for the woman who was sexually assaulted by a traffic cop and for the girl who was gang-raped. From his previous comments, he seems to desire a world in which reprehensible treatment of women (sexual assault, harassment, rape) is a-OK. But maybe, just maybe, his views will change now that he is forced to consider the fact that his own flesh and blood -- his wife, his sister, his mother, his daughter -- could be a victim of that violence.

 

More proof that Defense Attorneys have no souls. Some pictures of Mr. Stokke's lovely daughter (for those curious )...

 

 

 

 

It is his fault for having such a hot daughter...

my god shes hot

Ding!

SCHWING!!!

 

/edit

And don't worry all... She IS 18, and graduated high school!

She should be 'riding' this for all it's worth. Who else gets the attention of 300k+ people in less than two weeks? I'd be hiring a PR firm and hitting the talk show circuit.

 

But that's just me.

She's hot, but the e-fame has gotten out of hand.

 

Her dad bulls***s that they don't want the fame because of the harrasment, yet they have been doing interviews and even TV talk shows??

Am I living under a rock? I have no idea who this person is or what this is all about.

I hadn't heard about this before it was posted here either...

You're not the only one.

No clue what's going on, but 2 things:

 

1.) She's hot.

2.) While totally unacceptable, LMAO at the dad skeeting on the stripper.
