Russell Brand is in deep trouble for rape, indecent assault, and sexually assaulting people between 1999 and 2005.
The case is about different women.
Brand has been questioned by the cops loads of times since an investigation by the Sunday Times and other news outlets got on his case back in October 2023
In a new video posted on X, he was defiant; Brand said: “What I never was, was a rapist. I’ve never engaged in non-consensual activity.”
He added: “I’m now going to have the opportunity to defend these charges in court, and I’m incredibly grateful for that.”
In a short statement, the London Police said it had written to the actor to inform him that he was being charged with one case of rape, one of indecent assault, one of oral rape, and two more counts of sexual assault.
The force said it is alleged that:
- In 1999 a woman was raped in the Bournemouth area.
- In 2001, a woman was sexually assaulted in the Westminster neighborhood of London.
- In 2004, a woman was forced to give him oral sex and sexually assaulted again in the Westminster neighborhood of London.
- Between 2004 and 2005, a lady was sexually assaulted once more in the Westminster area of London.
Brand has been ordered to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on the 2nd of May, but he is thought to be in the United States.
In these situations, suspects are asked to come back on their own. If that does not work, then they can ask for an extradition.
In February, a civil case for “personal injury” and “sexual abuse” was lodged against Brand at the High Court in London by an anonymous woman, referred to in court documents as AGX.
Police Investigation into Forced Oral Sex
Jaswant Narwal from the Crown Prosecution Service said: “We have today authorized the Metropolitan Police to charge Russell Brand with several sexual offenses.
“We carefully reviewed the evidence after a police investigation into allegations made following the broadcast of a Channel 4 documentary in September 2023.
“We have concluded that Russell Brand should be charged with offenses including rape, sexual assault, and indecent assault. These relate to reported non-recent offenses between 1999 and 2005 involving four women.
“The Crown Prosecution Service reminds everyone that criminal proceedings are active, and the defendant has the right to a fair trial. There must be no reporting, commentary, or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings.”
The London Police’s lead detective, Andy Furphy, who is heading the investigation, said: “The women who have made reports continue to receive support from specially trained officers.
“The Met’s investigation remains open, and detectives ask anyone who has been affected by this case, or anyone who has any information, to come forward and speak with police. A dedicated team of investigators is available via email at CIT@met.police.uk.
“Support is also available by contacting the independent charity, Rape Crisis at 24/7 Rape and Sexual Abuse Support Line.”
Russell Brand is the first celebrity from the United Kingdom who has been accused of forced sex. This follows the legal battles of the Tate Brothers in the United Kingdom and Romania against Andrew and Tristan Tate.
What is different, though, is the forced oral sex accusation. Other cases have been vague as to what happened. In this case, the details have been revealed to the media.
Russell Brand has become an icon of sorts for the left with this podcast work, and fans are disappointed to see that he is just another Donald Trump in sheep’s clothing. Tolerance for bad and forced sexual encounters is at a historic low in the United Kingdom. The Russell Brand charges are very serious.
Also, he has a very liberal following, unlike the Tates or Trump, who did not lose followers after their sexual crimes. Trump won in 2016 despite the scandal of him with a pornstar. The Russell Brand forced oral sex case has everyone shocked.
It remains to be seen what will happen to these charges against Russell Brand. He is adamant that he is innocent. Then again, everyone is innocent until proven otherwise.
