Actor and comedian Russell Brand pleaded not guilty in a London court Friday to rape and sexual assault charges involving four women dating back more than 25 years.
Brand, who turns 50 next week, denied two counts of rape, two counts of sexual assault and one count of indecent assault. He said “not guilty” after each charge was read in Southwark Crown Court.
His trial was scheduled for June 3, 2026 and is expected to last four to five weeks.
I hate the guy like anyone here, but having someone plead not guilty isn’t really news worthy, imho
He’s hoping his magic amulet will protect him from a guilty verdict
He looks like a guy that would do all those things
I was going to say, doesn’t he have a legal team to tell him to wear at least a shirt that covers his collar bones? Male privilege is real, but does not extend to wearing a v-neck that deep at your arraignment.
The grooming also screams sleazeball.
Yeah… he’s coo-coo for cocoa puffs
Put this right-wing-out-of-convenience-for-views asshat in a cell.
The guy that dressed up as Osama bin Laden on TV after 9/11 did other bad things? Gasp.
