Judge tells disgraced actor and comedian he had displayed ‘casual, arrogant disregard of any woman’s right to say no’
Russell Brand was sentenced to more than 10 years in prison on Monday after a judge praised his victims’ bravery and accused him of living “unhindered by the rules by which decent people live”.
As the judge, Mr Justice Bennathan, sentenced Brand for raping one woman and sexual assaulting three others, he said he had told the trial “a series of lies”. The disgraced comedian had displayed a “casual, arrogant disregard of any woman’s right to say no”, he said.
