after a police investigation into allegations made following the broadcast of a Channel 4 documentary
"The Crown Prosecution Service reminds everyone that criminal proceedings are active, and the defendant has the right to a fair trial.
Were the allegations not brought to the police before the tv documentary? Why didn't the police investigate before? If so there should be an investigation and prosecution of those involved in the "non-investigation".
This failure to investigate is an outrage, many people including me listened to Russel Brand in the 2010s, but the police failed to investigate and now has the gall to say "the defendant has a right to a fair trial"? Does the public not also have a right to a fail investigation and prosecution?
honest question here. unless there is video and audio proof. how the fuck could someone be charged for this 20+ years later over "he said she said"? like how the hell does that work. Could i just pick a random person and say they raped me in 2002 and then they will go to prison?
Well, I've seen this coming for a while now, but I must admit, I actually liked him once upon a time. His comedy specials weren't just funny, they made you think about the abstract ideas of religion and consciousness. He was like a handsome rockstar comedian, the sort of person I wish I could be. Smart, sexy, cool, interesting. Hell, when I got sober from alcohol, reading his book that re-imagined the twelve steps into something less religious actually helped.
But then I heard the rumors, and it kind of fit with the image he gave himself. And then he made that abrupt turn into right-wing conspiracy and that all but confirmed it. To be honest I thought he'd already been charged with something and had just celebrity-ed his way out of it. Sucks, man.
The moment someone starts going all "anti-woke" you know they've got something to hide and they are trying to get acquainted with the pardon-dealing industry.
I've been thinking for a while that people that have a sudden right wing or andrew tate sphere turn are really just trying to get with like minded rapist, or whatever they're into, circles. Basically networking and putting out signals.
Something was always "off" with this guy. You could feel it during his "sexy socialist Jesus" era and it was practically confirmed with his "conspiratorial Ghandi" revamp.
Here's a Channel 4 documentary that goes into further detail about this man's deranged proclivities.
I consider his transformation into a double-Christian to be a confession that all the accusations are true. The biggest pieces of dogshit always face consequence mumbling prayers and missives.
