- Russell Brand has been sentenced to 10 years and six months in prison at Southwark Crown Court following victim impact statements detailing his sexual offences.
- Victims described Brand as a sexual predator with no remorse and spoke of the lasting emotional trauma caused by his attacks and seeing him celebrated in the media.
- The court heard how Brand's fame and power created an imbalance that left victims feeling powerless, anxious, and afraid they would not be believed if they reported him.

- Victims also detailed suffering harassment, public character assassination, and death threats from Brand's supporters on social media.
