The case received a wide amount of publicly in the USA and elsewhere in the world. Feminists in particular where outspoken about it. Upon arriving to his parents residence in Dayton, Turner ran a gauntlet of protesters waving poster and at least one firearm, with the poster scrawled with slogans such as "Kill the rapist".
