FOR LIFE Karma is a bitch

Brock Turner, the former Stanford University swimmer who was convicted of sexually assaulting an unconscious woman on campus, has been banned for life by USA Swimming, the national governing body of competitive swimming.

Although Turner’s membership with the organization expired at the end of 2014, before he committed the crime, the move blocks the 20-year-old from being eligible for one ever again. Swimmers must be a member of USA Swimming to compete in sanctioned events, including the upcoming U.S. Olympic Trials that select the Olympic team every four years.

“USA Swimming condemns the crime and actions committed by Brock Turner, and all acts of sexual misconduct. Brock Turner is not a member of USA Swimming and, should he apply, he would not be eligible for membership,” USA Swimming spokesman Scott Leightman said in a statement obtained by ABC News today. “Had he been a member, he would have been subject to the USA Swimming Code of Conduct. USA Swimming strictly prohibits and has zero tolerance for sexual misconduct, with firm Code of Conduct policies in place, and severe penalties, including a permanent ban of membership, for those who violate the Code of Conduct.”
