Russell Brand

I wouldn't spend too much time worrying about the fate of rapists, even if they do loosely share your politics - come across a bit weird.

It comes across two tier if those with a certain viewpoint get a longer or harsher sentence than those who have a different one.

I remember a time where if a bloke was convinced of rape, they'd be unanimously hung out to dry and ostracised.

Nowadays, you get people angrily reacting to rape verdicts, assuming the rapists shares their political views of course.

What a bizarre world.

I dread to think what horrors are going to come to light about that freakshow.

They might get the opportunity to get even friendlier.

What about the other charges of rape? Not guilty on those? Were the lies? 🤔

 

[StandbyPalace]

Can we now move this thread to "Another sexual assault" or is that thread only for crimes carried out by illegal migrants?🤔

Going to jaily waily.

Lonely convicts love a bloke in eye shadow and girls trousers.

 

[Cucking Funt]

Told to expect a prison sentence "of some length". Sounds like he's going to have the booky-wook thrown at him.

He'll be fine. A few sarky comments, a coy hair flick and a "Do you know who I am"? He'll have the run of the place.

Probably because they couldn't be proved beyond reasonable doubt. Doesn't mean the complainants were lying.

 

[Stirlingsays]

My country is fecking insane and anyone defending a judgement on this based on hearsay and speculation deserves to find themselves jailed in the same hearsay circumstances.

Exactly this. In the eyes of the law "innocent" and "not-guilty" are semantically different.

I definitely have concerns about whether he got a fair trial. I don't know how it was possible with a jury. I don't have an opinion either way as to whether he was guilty though.

I'm f***ing furious.

It's an embarrassment to natural justice.

Sending him down based on claims of sex, in situations I heard were twenty years ago......totally unprovable.

Anyone who says this can be said to be 'beyond a reasonable doubt' just don't give a f*** about justice.

I can't argue to be fair

The jury would disagree with you. And they heard all the evidence.

It's all hearsay from 20 years ago. Apparently a woman can now change her mind about consent 20 years later.

Juries don't convict on hearsay.

What was the evidence? Was there DNA evidence?
