Russell Brand
Could Be Looking at 6 to 9 Years in Jail
Published
Russell Brand may be locked up for quite a while … at least what the chair of the Bar Council says.
Kirsty Brimelow told Sky News the actor was looking at “between six and nine years” in prison for his crimes.
As we previously reported, the actor was convicted of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault on Thursday.
He was denied bail and will remain behind bars until his sentencing on Monday.
Brand was acquitted of two other rape charges and attempted indecent assault … but a detective who oversaw his investigation believes he’s still a danger to women.
The detective said that between Brand’s “position of power and trust” and his “millions of followers,” he remains a risk.
