10 years in jail — the verdict is in. 😱
📅 10 November 2026
Russell Brand, 51, has been sentenced to 10 years and six months in prison at Southwark Crown Court. On Thursday, a jury found him guilty of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault against four women, for offences between 2004 and 2009.
Judge Joel Bennathan said the crimes were fuelled by Brand's "staggering arrogance". He must serve two-thirds of the sentence before he can be released on licence. The Metropolitan Police say they are still investigating further allegations from two more women.
Is 10 and a half years enough for crimes like these? 👇
