Russell Brand. Who woulda thunk it

The thing that worries me about this is that, with no real investigation, it has pretty much been decided he is guilty. You even have co*ks like Cleverly coming in and stoking the guilty narrative.

If he's guilty he deserves everything coming to him and his career to be ruined. If he isn't guilty - his career is potentially ruined regardless. Surely there needs to be a degree of silence whilst the police investigate and it, if necessary, goes to trial.

There is no place for anyone of any *** or gender abusing (mentally or physically) someone else of any *** or gender. It's not acceptable and needs to be punished and ideally eradicated (if only!). But regardless if you think the perpetrator is a tw*t or not, they deserve a fair hearing without trail by media making everyone's minds up in advance.

I've never had much time for him, and he could well be guilty. I don't know, he could well be innocent. If he's guilty, then yes, lock him up.

Far too balanced for on here min. Just get him strung up now and to hell with any notion of him being innocent.

The women are entitled to make complaints, C4/The Times are entitled to report on those complaints & he has a right to defend himself against those complaints.

This should happen way more often than it does.

C'mon Mason min.

You don't agree with trials and stuff.

An accusation is all it takes to be guilty.



All this sort of stuff is of little interest to me, I've seen his face before, looks like a bit of a snapper.

No doubt the pitchforks and torches will be out though and four accusations will turn into forty overnight.

Of course they are, but equally he is entitled to defend himself too. This trial by TV/Social Media shyte has to stop.

Doesn't matter if the bloke were to be innocent, he will always be tainted by these allegations.

He’ll always be tainted by the stuff we already know about. Nobody should make those lifestyle choices consequence free. Daniel Sloss flat out called him a s3x offender on that documentary. Rusty has the time, funds & legal team to go after him. Can anyone see that happening?

Yeah, I don’t think the complainants had you in mind when they raised the issue
