Russell Brand charged by the Metropolitan Police Service

The CPS has authorised the charges following an investigation by detectives

news.met.police.uk

FYI it is understood that Russell Brand now resides in Florida. I really have no idea if he will be extradited. But the UK media has noted him apparently moving towards the MAGA camp. It shouldn't be a political decision but I sense it may become one.

I don't like Russel Brand, or that guy from that 70's show. However what is up with charging people 20 -26 or so years after the alleged incidents.
Not quite as long for That 70's guy but still.

If some woman can claim oh, " 25 years ago so and so raped me" then just arrest him? Is their any proof? If so what? After a quarter century or so in at least one case. 1999? - 2005. Well she says it. I bet the left would be defending Russel if he were still a leftist. Actually I take that back nobody likes or can stand him. But this is a scary thing if they can just file charges on a guy decades after an alleged S.A.; why didn't they come forward within even a decade, even then? So I guess women should have the right decades after an alleged incident and claim they were sexually assaulted. And just arrest him a quarter century later; what is the evidence. Well, he probably has money, so claim he raped you and get rich? WTF, aren't their any statues of limitations? Murder is different. The British do nothing about these 'immigrant' rape gangs but because of past wrongdoings; by other media personalities having gone unpunished, they go after him?
I am just concerned that men will be falsely accused and have their lives ruined because of false allegations and lure of easy money. Especially if they don't like the person or his politics. I wonder could hatred of his political views and his religious 180, be a factor? They didn't go after him when he was a left wing atheist and now?

Look at the shit that is going on with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds and that whole Bs, lawsuit and the evidence that it was all made up.
Yeah, just ruin a man anytime you want? This is starting to make a mockery of real victims.

I am open to hear or read the evidence, although I could care less about any off the guys and even M. Manson is in civil suit against him ( at least one) allegations from 2009-2011. The legal case and criminal charges dropped due statute of limitations. How come; That 70's show guy is doing life? His charges against him were even older? Both in L.A.? WTF.

I hate sexual predators, and am not even remotely a fan of Russel Brands. But seriously 20- 26 years later? If someone could explain the evidence and why this is now a legal matter. A civil one also.$$$$$$$$$.
Sorry, but this needs to be further explained or I am calling this a bullshit case, and a grab.

I will say this, what if he took a polygraph and passed? Not admissible, but that could go a long way to help him. And then, ask the accusers to take one?

Also, if a woman makes up false accusations, and this happens; shouldn't she face the same penalties plus if she signs a legal document falsely, then perjury also?
In many areas a falsely signed legal document on a criminal matter can be considered perjury or the equivalent. Not just false reporting of a crime. But that should be added also, if proven false.

I really hate and, am disgusted by men who mistreat women; let alone engage in sexual misconduct and rape is basically unforgivable, especially if it involves minors.

My concern is that men could and have been falsely accused of rape and even worse child molestation.
Let us not forget the numerous men and even women who went to jail during 'The Satan Panic', and all the Bs in The states of Texas, California and elsewhere. Not to mention over 12,000 cases of unsubstantiated cases of child ritual abuse across North America and even into other countries.

Some have been exonerated and some are still trying to clear their names. And yes they did find some real cases of sexual abuse, but most where completely false and devastating too so many innocent people.

All I can say is that in other cases I mentioned, it likewise took decades for the British police to act. It IS a serious flaw in British justice.

 

[Bleaney]

I have no idea if Brand has done all of the things he's being accused of or not. But the time delay could be a similar kind of thing as happened with Jimmy Saville. With his fame, celebrity, connections, money, etc his victims felt powerless and didnt think they'd be believed, or were too scared to come forward. There may be some parallels with the Brand cases..

Not just with Brand, but with all celebrities accused of such things. And there have been so very many.

Some of the accusations have been found to be baseless, or at least no evidence of any wrong doing was ever found, as with Cliff Richard.

 

[Shinji Ikari]

In the early 2000s being a sex pest was practically part of his brand (ha) so none of this is particularly surprising. Still could be bollocks but I'm sure it'll all come out in the wash.

I used to like him when he was on big fat quiz of the year with noel fielding. Oh and I liked that film, Get Him to the Greek, was it? Something like that.

I kind of forgot he existed for the better part of a decade and last time I checked he'd shifted away from comedy and into rambling about conspiracy theories for a living so I haven't kept up.

However what is up with charging people 20 -26 or so years after the alleged incidents

The BBC has a history of sweeping complaints under the rug and it I remember correctly they've already been called out for failing to investigate complaints relating to Brand's conduct dating back over a decade. I'll see if I can find an article just to make sure I'm not misremembering.

Edit: yeah sounds like there were complaints made as far back as 2006 that weren't investigated and the BBC have already apologized for this.

Staff felt they could not speak up with concerns about the star's behaviour, an internal review finds.

So now the British polices have got their act together? The people could say anything? Really, they couldn't have gone to the cops? If that is the case, then what makes it safe 2 decades later? Then they should be charged as accessories to these alleged crimes. What did they fear for their lives from Russel Brand? No, if they were true witnesses and did nothing it was because they feared for their jobs. Arrest them also, not the alleged victims. Then, if true they should face prison also.

The allegations that he has an arrest warrant is for alleged incidents from 1999-2005. Really?

 

[Shinji Ikari]

The allegations that he has an arrest warrant is for alleged incidents from 1999-2005. Really

Well. Russell Brand circa 2005 was a national treasure. I wouldn't have wanted to go up against him in the tabloids. And if the accusers weren't taken seriously by their employer the BBC (itself a government funded institution) why would they expect to be taken seriously by the police?

Jimmy Saville Rolf Harris and Huw Edmunds all could have been called national treasures at the height of their careers and all were convicted in criminal court of horrific sex crimes years and years after they'd started taking place and in most instances their employers (mostly the BBC, but it was industry wide) were found to have been either turning a blind eye to or actively help them conceal their crimes for years.

I don't know if there is any substance to these allegations but I don't think the length of time since Brands crimes allegedly took place does anything to discredit them considering the precedent already set by similar cases.

He despises the queen !!!!!

I will be back later .... from real life.

 

[kiely]

Oh yeah and I am subbed to his channel along with the other millions okay.

But I haven't listened in years. Several years.

When I get my note I just read the headlines ... or listen to a few minutes if I can.

Yes, It definitely seems like ..... he is under attack.

It's a money grab and just discrediting the others that really needed help.

They told anna & nichole simpson she was a b*tch and you see how that turned out.

Weird. He's just one of the carnival barkers against the Agenda. Move along.

Just my 2$. Where is the cents marker on the keyboard ?

Are we not entertained !!!!!?

I liked Harvey Procters speech when he had a historical sex probe (missus). It went something like "The man claims he saw Ted Heath kill a child and the man who gave him the knife was Jimmy saville. What a load of fucking bollocks"

the onion has a great take, as usual

"Nation Could Have Sworn Russell Brand Was Already Convicted Sex Offender

NEW YORK—Stressing that the memory seemed so fresh and vivid in their minds, the confused nation announced Monday that they could have sworn British entertainer Russell Brand was already a convicted sex offender. “Interesting…so Russell Brand definitely wasn’t already found guilty of sexual assault back in, like…2016, 2017?” said 39-year-old New York resident Scott Hasard, echoing the thoughts of 330 million Americans as he noted that when he saw allegations emerge about the actor, comedian, and podcast host, he had assumed it was simply repackaged content from nearly a decade ago. “You’re telling me there wasn’t a lengthy and well-publicized trial where Brand was acquitted, but then new allegations emerged? And, like, social media posts where the women got called liars? None of that happened? Huh. I even feel like I read a think-piece about how we could still appreciate Forgetting Sarah Marshall despite his crimes. It’s probably insane to even ask this, but didn’t he release a comeback special back in 2020 about how everyone tried to cancel him for the sexual assault stuff? Seriously? Not even that?” At press time, the baffled nation asked what had made Brand into such an unhinged and deeply frustrated person if all of this hadn’t kicked it off years ago."

It’s so on “brand” that a rapist turns into a right wing influencer.

No proof and wait a quarter century to two decades? That is rubbish. You tell the police. Not wait decades this is probably a money grab and possibly because of his political change and now easier to also sue him. Also if it is coming from the morons that are the UK police then I am suspicious.

 

[nznity]

Russell brand is controlled opposition. Also a gender inverted female, he hasn't raped anyone.
He doesn't even have a penis, his case is nothing but freemasonic bullcrap to distract the mass3s.
Wake up people.

 

[nznity]

Totally. He's 1000% a luciferian cunt.

 

[alasdairm]

That is rubbish. You tell the police.

so easy to say this, as a man, from the comfort of an anonymous internet connection.

there's evidence that, depending on which country you are in, anywhere from 50% to ~70% of rapes go unreported.

there are a host of reason that many women choose to not report their being raped: fear of not being believed; fear that the police will do nothing; fear of being ostracized; fear of being judged; fear of retribution; etc.

8% of all rape claims are false according to what FBI has reported in an article I read years ago. I wonder how much that increases when you have a guy worth at least $20,000,000.

Also, what is the evidence? What if you had a lot of money and some woman claimed a quarter century ago you engaged in very awful disgusting behavior or an actual rape?

There needs to be evidence and why now. 1999-2005 these alleged incidents occurred. What if these claims are as accurate as the Sexual harassment claims of Blake Lively?

So, women can just claim 2 decades ago or 1/4 century or so later that they were victims of a rich guy who is a jerk? Then arrest him. The power to just say he raped me, and then the guy is arrested with her word against his; 20-26 years later. Women have been known to make these false claims. For a variety of reasons. But 20-26 years go by and, now he is politically the opposite and now holds controversial views that offend the looney left. He says he now a Christian, but I as Christian know that most are not. I have no idea if he is because that term, means little if used broad sense. Since, anyone who has studied the different denominations and their key beliefs knows that Christian is a broad and not accurate an description of many.
However, I do know the hatred and extreme vitriol of many; especially in the UK have towards Christians and throw in, from what I have read: A likely Trump supporters who lives in America now. Throw that in with his money and past drug addiction and generally hated by many; I would like hard proof.

Not to mention that UK government has suffered serious embarrassment; over high profile people getting away with sexual misconduct, that lasted years or decades. They died and only later were found out by the police and public. So now hyper vigilance, on their part?

I am definitely not blaming the victims or totally dismissing the claims.
I am just suspicious and worry if these type of allegations, are genuine due to factors I have named. Also how would feel to have your name dragged through the mud by false allegations if you were rich and famous?

Spending lots of money, time, stress, having a suspicion that would always linger over you even if the cases were dismissed. What if someone who was around you 2 decades or a quarter of century made an allegation and then others jumped in seeing an opportunity to make money and who like most people who know him( if you were a polarizing and obnoxious person. Not that at I and many others think that of you. Amused that I have stalker yes. Be honest you have taken every chance you get to attack anything I say and this goes back well over a year). There has to be a time limit except in murder. 20 years is by far longer than the statute of limitations, in most of these cases.

I bet ( if know and had read the early ( false claims) of Blake Lively and that Ryan Reynolds were making against Justin Baldoni( mis?): You would have or did believe her.

Yes, I got bored and dug into the case yesterday for 6-8 hours. Now those two are in big trouble. Read and study it. No one is on their side now. Even R.R's ex wife Scarlett Johansson is even looking to direct a movie for Baldoni's production company. There friends have removed anything linking them to themselves and blocked then, from their social media. Their careers are basically destroyed when he released 168 pages of text and emails that prove her claims are false. I bet Ryan Reynolds will never even try to make out with him.lol
What those 2 did to ruin his life and now they are basically black listed.
Also the trial next march could have them destroyed financially. It is messed up what they did. But you would have almost certainly taken their side. You are predictable.

But I want proof and women coming forward after 2 decades or longer is more than suspicious. Yes and there a bogus cases and false allegations and 20-26 years after the "alleged attack" I don't like him or even respect him, but this is ridiculous.

Russell looks like a individual who had a botched sex change. But what Russell was, and what 'Russell' hoped to become are a mystery.
