Brand Guilty.

I cannot stand the guy. Probably mostly out of jealousy that he was married to Katy Perry. But a woman comes around for consensual sex and it ended up being a bit weird, with her claiming she asked him to stop and he didn't.... that fits category B3. There may be other factors.


He will get around 4-7 years for the rape alone, so he will be jailed awaiting sentencing.
What I dont get with these rape cases is if its 2 people in a room where's the proof?

Same as the mike Tyson thing.
 
I agree and I would hope a jury would not make a finding of Rape on those conditions alone.

Unfortunately, it is very easy for a man's life to be ruined by a false allegation. Even if it later turns out to be lies.

A lessor offence of unlawful sex after consent is withdrawn might be appropriate. In some countries the sentences for similar are much lower.

Probably something to do with the other three convictions for sexual assault against three different women. Sort of a pattern emerging there... best change your modus operandi laddies, he did'nt and look where it got him.
 
I saw some bloke on the news giving a statement about Brand who he knew back in the day when all of this was happening and he clearly knew all about brand and in the news interview he was laying the disgust/ vile etc on really thick and I thought "where were you then when all this was happening - why didn't you say something then" I think a lot of people will be coming out now doing their best to distance themselves from him when its something they should have done at the time.
At the time of his crimes he was the lovie of the left.
 
Talk about people who live in glass houses. I can remember Brand to be the first to hint publicly on a TV chat show about an upcoming sex scandal that nobody was aware of at the time. He actually said something like "Just think about two little boys" as the clue. People at the time thought he was referring to Ant & Dec but it was of course, Rolf Harris.
 
Read earlier that Police are calling for more victims to come forward and are already investigating the case where he sent a car to pick up a 16 yo from school for sex.
This could go for years.
