ers 2015 attack on the woman he met at a fraternity party

LOS ANGELES -- The first soccer game played at Dodger Stadium finished with one of the sports most familiar results: an impressive victory for Real Madrid. Cristiano Ronaldo scored in the 17th minute and set up Mesut Ozils goal 14 minutes later, leading Real Madrid to the final of the International Champions Cup with a 2-1 victory over Everton on Saturday night. Ronaldo and Ozil starred in soccers debut at the 51-year-old stadium, keeping Real Madrid unbeaten in preseason friendlies this summer. In preparation for soccers arrival in Chavez Ravine, the Dodgers flattened their pitchers mound and spread temporary grass over the infield and warning track, creating a workable pitch for a doubleheader in front of an enthusiastic Southern California crowd that enjoyed a well-played exhibition. "It was a little bit strange because we didnt play in a football stadium, but the atmosphere, the tradition of this stadium is outstanding," Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said. "To be in this stadium with such fantastic history is a great thing for us ... and I was pleased with our performance." Second-half substitute Nikica Jelavic scored in the 61st minute for Everton, which gave a solid challenge to the Galacticos. Tim Howard, Evertons American goalkeeper, made a handful of brilliant saves to spark chants of "U-S-A" in the crowd. "Both teams were trying to feel each other out, and its tough to assess results this early," Howard said. "It felt good out there, though. It felt loud. It felt electric. We had a good time." The inaugural International Champions Cup matches seven European teams and MLS Los Angeles Galaxy in an exhibition tournament. The final is Wednesday night in Miami, where Real Madrid will face the winner of Chelseas meeting with AC Milan outside New York on Sunday. Just two weeks away from the season opener in La Liga, Real Madrid had more than enough talent to overcome Everton. The Toffees reached the semifinals earlier in the week with a surprise win in San Francisco over two-time defending Serie A champion Juventus, which faced the Galaxy in the second game. Dodger Stadium has hosted the Beatles, a papal Mass, eight World Series and 52 Dodgers seasons, but had never converted its baseball-specific field into a soccer pitch. One sideline began just outside the right-handed batters box and stretched right to the edge of the warning track near the right-field pole, 330 feet away from home plate. Even with nearly every good seat in the majors largest ballpark selling for $85 or much more, a solid fan contingent greeted both teams. Evertons Catalan coach, Roberto Martinez, acknowledged the game was a valuable chance to test the Toffees against the worlds best. While his team looked good for stretches, particularly around Reals net, they repeatedly were caught scrambling when their offside trap was beaten. "It was a fantastic game for us," Martinez said. "We were very disappointed in the first half, how effective we allowed Real Madrid to be on the counterattack, but thats about the only area where we were disappointed. I thought we kept the ball very well against one of the best teams in the world." While Ronaldo was the crowds favourite, German national team midfielder Ozil was named the man of the match. Ronaldo broke between two defenders for a golden chance in 10th minute, but the Portuguese star tried to volley Sergio Ramos long lead pass and booted it well over Howards goal. Ronaldo scored when poor marking and a sharp pass from Ozil left him alone in Evertons end, where he faked Howard to the ground and tapped home a long shot for the first goal in Chavez Ravine history. Everton had plenty of early chances as well. Marouane Fellainis header glanced off the post in the 24th minute, and Sylvain Distins apparent goal on a header six minutes later was waved off for a foul in the box. Ronaldo and Ozil then slipped behind Evertons defence again to retrieve an excellent chipped pass from Luka Modric, with Ronaldo putting a pass on Ozils right foot for another goal. Ronaldo left for a substitute 13 minutes into the second half. Moments after Howard made a dramatic leaping stop, Everton answered when Steven Naismith headed a crossing pass back into the middle for Jelavic, whose flying kick rattled between goalkeeper Diego Lopez and the post.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- California Gov. Jerry Brown has signed two sexual assault laws in response to national outrage over the six-month jail sentence given to a former Stanford University swimmer for assaulting a woman passed out near a trash bin.The Democratic governor announced his approval Friday of laws requiring longer sentences to be served in state prison for defendants convicted of assaulting unconscious victims, ending the possibility of brief jail sentences like the one Brock Turner received in June.Turner faced a minimum sentence of two years in state prison, and prosecutors argued for six years. But Santa Clara County Judge Aaron Persky cited the extraordinary circumstances of Turners youth and clean criminal record in imposing a shorter term in county jail.The new law removes a judges discretion to sentence an offender to jail, meaning future defendants will face state prison sentences as long as 14 years.Judge Perskys ruling was unjustifiable and morally wrong, however, under current state law it was within his discretion. While we cant go back and change what happened, we have made sure it never happens again, Assemblyman Evan Low, D-Campbell, said in a statement. If you do the crime, youre going to do the time.Turners case burst into the spotlight after a poignant statement from the victim swept through social media.Politicians and law enforcement officials have lined up alongside sexual assault survivors to criticize Turners sentence, back a recall effort against the judge who imposed it and urge Brown to sign the tougher sentencing legislation.The 21-year-old one-time Olympic hopeful was released from the Santa Clara County jail in September after serving three months for good behavior. He will be on probation for three years in his native Ohio.Brown said in a signing message that he usually opposes adding more mandatory minimum sentences. But he said he signed the sentencing bill because I believe it brings a measure of parity to sentencing for criminal acts that are substantially similar.Outside jail after Turners release, county Sheriff Laurie Smith said she believed his sentence was too light and urged Brown to sign the bill.Letting felons convicted of such crimes get off with probation discourages other survivors from coming forward and sends the message that raping incapacitated victims is no big deal, Democratic Assemblyman Bill Dodd of Napa said in a statement after lawmakers approved his bill in August.But more than two dozen groups dedicated tto ending campus sexual assaults urged Brown to veto it, fearing that the punishment would more likely be applied to minority and lower-income defendants than white offenders like Turner.ddddddddddddMahroh Jahangiri, executive director of Know Your IX, a national organization representing survivors, said mandatory minimum sentences also could deter victims from pressing charges against their attackers, who are often people they know.Brown also signed another bill permitting sexual assault victims to say in court that they were raped, even if the attack doesnt meet the technical definition under California law.State law defines rape as nonconsensual intercourse between a man and a woman, leaving out other forms of sexual assault, including Turners 2015 attack on the woman he met at a fraternity party. He was convicted of three sexual assault felonies, including digital penetration of an unconscious woman.The rape definition that came under fire in the Turner case leaves Brown in an awkward position as he promotes a November ballot initiative that would allow earlier release of prisoners as a way to control overcrowding.Proposition 57 would allow earlier parole consideration for nonviolent inmates, but the legal definition of a violent felony includes just 23 crimes, such as murder, kidnapping and forcible rapes and sexual assaults.Turners crimes were considered nonviolent under California law because he assaulted an intoxicated or unconscious person who could not resist, so he didnt have to use force.All sexual assaults are a violent offense. There is no such thing as a nonviolent sexual assault, Stanford law professor Michele Dauber said.Dauber is a friend of the woman Turner assaulted and is leading a campaign to recall Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge Aaron Persky for departing from the usual minimum sentence in the case.The bill passed without a dissenting vote, though Democratic Assemblywoman Cristina Garcia of Bell Gardens scaled back her initial proposal to expand the definition of rape. Prosecutors were concerned the original version would prevent them from filing multiple charges against perpetrators.Sexual penetration without consent is rape. It is never invited, wanted or warranted. Rape is rape, period, Garcia said in statement. When we fail to call rape `rape, we rob survivors and their families of the justice they deserve. ' ' '
