Brock, who was convicted of sexual assault, was sentenced to just six months prison following a controversial letter sent by his dad to the judge where he stated his sons life would change forever for just "20 minutes of action".
The decision has sparked public outrage and the release of the video is another addition to the already overwhelming amount of support the victim, who has remained anonymous, has received.
