    The woman who was sexually assaulted by college swimmerย Brock Turnerย and confronted him in court before his sentencing is writing a memoir.

    Viking Booksย announced Wednesday that it would publish the book, currently untitled, by the woman known publicly as Emily Doe. The publisher declined comment on whether she will use her real name. Her memoir is scheduled for Sept. 17.

    Millions were enraged when Turner , an ex-Stanford Universityย student, was sentenced to just six months in jail in 2016 after being convicted of felony sexual assault. The judge became the first recalled in California since 1932.
