A Utah judicial oversight commission representative says the number of comments about Low calling a convicted rapist a &quot;good man&quot; during his sentencing hearing has nearly tripled since Friday, April 14, 2017. Jennifer Yim said Monday, April 17, 2017, that she has received in total about 120 emails, phone calls and Facebook messages about Judge Thomas Low. The messages started coming in late March when Low came under scrutiny for letting Keith Robert Vallejo out of custody after a jury found him guilty of 10 counts of forcible sexual abuse and one count of object rape.(Chris Detrick/The Salt Lake Tribune, via AP, Pool, File)
