Russell Brand rape trial opens in London
Original: russel brand
Russell Brand's rape and sexual assault trial has begun, with prosecutors telling the jury he was 'ruthless and calculated' in his conduct toward women. The comedian and actor denies all charges. The case stems from allegations made public in 2023 and is being followed closely given Brand's high profile and years of public attention on the accusations.
Why now: The start of the trial, with stark prosecution claims, is drawing wide public attention.
