 I don't think people are supposed to want to go to court to clear their name.

 

I sure wouldn't. The mere accusation ruins your name. You can't unring some of these bells.

 

I guarantee you, millions will always think Russell is guilty no matter what happens in court. 

 

That's why it's an abuse of power to accuse people of something and drag them into court to prove their innocence..

Whether a persons  alleged crimes have been splashed all over the news or not, if  the police have taken the accusations seriously enough to open an investigation,  surely a court where justice is seen to be done, is the best outcome.

 

Incidentally....as things stand at the moment, what do you think is the way forwards?

 


 

 

Seems many have gone right to punishment..

 Maybe the aim was to get justice.

 Destroying people is no way of getting justice.

 Plenty of investigations end without charges. The police are obligated to listen to folks, not rubber stamp all accusations and let them go to court.  

 

At this point the cops are doing what they are supposed to do. Brand is presumed innocent and should be as the investigation continues. If he he is charged, then, he should be treated differently, and of course if he is convicted, punished. 

 

Seems many have gone right to punishment..


 Alternatively, if he has raped and sexually abused women in the past, he has had many years of freedom, whilst the women have had many years of trying to live with the trauma of being sexually violated.

 


 And there is a system to deal with that. 

 

Let's follow it.

I agree....hopefully the police, then CPS will find it worthy of a court appearance.

Hopefully the police will give it due consideration. If they decide there is sufficient evidence and substance to the allegation(s) to take it to court then good.  If they decide there is insufficient evidence and substance to the allegation(s) not to take it to court, then good again.   As long as they give it due consideration as in any other case.  What more can we ask for ?

 You sound like you've found him guilty already.

 Personally, I think he is guilty as sin.

 Why do you hope it's worthy of a court appearance? Wouldn't it be better for everyone if they decide there is no need for a court appearance because there were no crimes committed?  

 

You have already decided he's guilty, and it's just a matter of if he gets away with it. 

 

That's why I said earlier that it makes no difference to millions what the authorities say. They have already found him guilty.

 If I had been accused by so many, as he has been, in his shoes (if I was innocent) I would definitely want to publicly clear my name. The only way to do that, (bar every woman admitting they  had lied) is in a court of law.

If it did go to court, we would hear both sides in detail.

As it is now, we have heard some of the women's versions in detail, seen Brand bragging and laughing about how he has raped women and had them gagging from oral sex, and seen recent videos of him whining his innocence and looking like a rabbit caught in the headlights.

Alternatively, if no charges are brought, Brand could take legal action himself.

"In England and Wales, the subjects of unwanted stories can sue for libel if they believe their reputation has been damaged. The responsibility is on the party taken to court, not the subject of the allegations."

 Your name is also cleared by the authorities not seeing enough evidence for a crime to even go to court.

 

His won't be if that happens, but that's how it's supposed to work.

 

You don't like Russell and that bias is leading you to want to punish him for being a whore dog, regardless of any actual criminal activity.

 You are right....and you are wrong.

Right that I don't like Brand, could never stand his whining voice and his pathetic attempts to shock.

Wrong that I would like to see him punished just for being a 'whore dog'. He can shag around as much as he likes, as long as the women he is shagging are agreeable.

When it comes to rape, of forcing a kid half his age to have rough oral sex, that's what I would like to see him up in court for.

Did you see the programme where all this came out, have you heard the interview the (then) 16 year old gave?

That could be your daughter....would you be championing his cause then?

 Or it could be one of my son in laws being punished without a trial. 

 

I don't need to see a program to know that there is a process that needs to be followed, so that people don't rush to judgement.

 

I don't see why you insist on refusing to let this play out. 

 

Google Tawana Brawley. 

 

There's a reason for the process.

It's not my fault he has been outed.
It is what it is, see what happens from now.

 I can't stand the man.  Apparently the BBC is doing an hour programme on Monday.  Let's see what they have to say if it's about him.

 I'm not blaming you for outing him. 

 

I'm pretty sure you has nothing to do with it and hadn't paid him any mind in years. 

 

And I agree let's see what happens.

Someone has made the comparison of Huw Edwards and Russell Brand.   One a current BBC employee and one a former BBC employee.  Both allegations occurred in the past while working or associated with the BBC.   One the Media were told (by whom?) not to mention his name while the other was plastered all over broadcast and print media.   I think the difference is that the alleged victim in one didn't want it publicized and in the other the alleged victim agreed to have it publicized. 

We also had a media fuss about Phillip Schofield who worked for the BBC and ITV.    I have sort of forgotten about that because there was no court action but I do remember it being said that the BBC gave him an interview where he said he was a victim or something.

Apparently the British Attorney General has made a statement saying any online statement made by anyone from the public that may be perceived as interfering with a current or POTENTIAL criminal court case can be said to be in contempt of court and hence fined and inprisoned over it.
