Russell Brand has been accused of raping, sexually assaulting and abusing four women over the course of seven years — including a 16-year-old he allegedly called “the child” — according to a bombshell investigation published Sept. 16.
The British actor and comedian, 48, denied the report prior to its release.
Since the allegations broke, interviews have resurfaced showing Brand’s ex-wife Katy Perry and his “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” co-star Kristen Bell discussing his behavior years ago, and his YouTube channel has been demonetized.

The Kristen Bell piece seems to make it clear that she told him, in effect, that “No means No”, that he totally understood that, and that he never misbehaved.
Who could ask for more than that? It’s exactly what the Left has been demanding from men.
We are also now in an era where with respect to sexual offenses, there is no statute of limitations. As we saw a few weeks ago with that Scientologist actor getting a virtual life sentence for crimes committed, I forget exactly when but something like 30 years earlier. How on earth can a privileged male defendant prove to a hostile jury pool in the me-too era that there was consent some random date two decades earlier? The statutes of limitation existed in the context of rape for very good reasons. (And they were mainly eliminated so that the plaintiffs’ lawyers could cash in on civil molestation cases against churches and Boy Scouts where many of the alleged molesters were already long dead, rendering the cases even less defensible).
A guy from my high school kidnapped a woman, beat her, raped her, and threw her into the street naked.
A couple hours later he did the same thing to another woman.
He served 5 years.
Danny Masterson got 30 years for a 20 year old he said, she said.
No evidence in the least.
I think it’s meant to serve notice. “We can do this to anyone, anytime, for anything.”
Hmmm. Why did she have to ask?
I make no claims about the veracity of the allegations. Will need to wait and see - He was a product of the state until around a year ago.
I do know that to apostasize from leftist orthodoxy is punishable by cancelation, humiliations and having a scarlet letter “R” For right wing placed on you and put on the Internet scaffold for scorn.
Hope justice for whatever side prevails.
He has made no secret of his past life where he was a little wild. That doesn’t mean he was a violent rapist. It meant he slept around. Not that unusual for a young celebrity. Kristin Bell told him she wasn’t having any of that, and so he behaved himself. As far as I’m concerned, there is nothing wrong here.
This is political hit job. Brand has become too cozy with Tucker and starting to reveal some truths the political elite don’t want spoken.
One went to a rape center the day of the event. This was drunken/drug/bar/groupie/ pick-ups; not a “dating” situation
He red pilled about 6 months ago. Now he must be destroyed. He was a member in good standing with the left brigade but he open his eyes. Nothing angers the left more than losing one of their soldiers.

Yesterday the Metropolitan Police said it had received a report of an alleged sexual assault in central London in 2003 after a Times investigation into Brand’s treatment of women

“One went to a rape center the day of the event.”
Total speculation. What’s her name?
The allegations recently made were supposedly between 2006-2013.
He is a super redpilled ex-lib. He is funny as hell and has a huge following. He cuts through the Bolshevik fluff quite easily. It’s the usual Thomas/Kavanaugh stuff.
Indeed.
Were charges filed?
Hey Russell, call Tony Buzbee....
Were charges filed?
—-
There isn’t even an official police investigation yet
All of this came from media reports
He seems to be a Joe Rogan type of ‘liberal’ that took an honest look at the issues an went off the reservation.
He’s not my cup of tea, but I respect him for being an honest thinker
These same women who are supposedly still to embarrassed to talk about their supposed rape are more than happy to tell about their abortions
You are correct.
