Brand, 51, faced seven charges in total, including three counts of rape. The judge tells him: “Obviously a custodial sentence of some length will result.”
Another classic example of someone suddenly and mysteriously becoming a “right-wing influencer” in an attempt to make allegations go away.
Don't forget a christian. He carries a bible everywhere these days.
It’s always the ones you most expect
Did his right wing grift drift align with getting dropped when the allegations first came out?
My suspicion is “yes”.
Silly question, but what’s the difference between sexual assault and rape?
sexual assault
Rape is a subcategory of sexual assault. Groping or forced kissing are not rape, but are also forms of sexual assault.
Noted, thank you. I will continue not engaging in either, then.
And that’s on Brand.
A lot of these women came forward after the channel four investigation so hopefully now even more will have the courage to do so.
Bot sure why i clicked on the "watch live link, but i’m glad i watched him get out of a car 8 times from 8 different angles
Happy cake day
Always knew he was a cunty wunt from the time he made that phone call to Andrew Sachs.
He was always slimy and condescending at best. He seemed deeply misogynistic always.
Get fucked bozo
Man this guy did not age very well, eh?
I saw a lot of articles about this as the trial was ongoing - more than for most ongoing trials. I don’t know if the reporting rules were different or what, but I really didn’t want to read about it until the trial was over. I don’t really know why, but I think partly I knew I didn’t want to read about a rape trial every single day and so I would only get a partial view of things at that level of detail. I’d rather have the court do the summarising for me by handing down a verdict and then read at the conclusion.
Now that’s happened, I’m glad justice has been served. It’s always mixed feelings with these trials: it turns out another public figure was a scumbag, but at least another scumbag is going to be punished. Hopefully the publicity leads to a sense that these crimes are unacceptable and will be punished.
