Some of Russell Brand’s victims have bravely released statements following his sentencing to ten and a half years in prison. Of this sentence, Russell is estimated to spend at least seven years behind bars, and the rest of the time he will be out on license. He will also remain on the sexual offenders register for life.
One victim, who Russell assaulted in his home back in 2009, vulnerably expressed how her trauma is “never ending”. She described it as “something I carry with me every day and it often feels never ending.”
She continued: “I doubt my ability to make good decisions and no longer trust my instinct in the way I did,” she added. “I felt that if I reported him, I would not be believed. His fame, wealth, and influence created a power imbalance which made me feel powerless.”
The lady bravely noted that she continues to “experience anxiety, difficulties with trust, reduced confidence, and the lasting effects of trauma” due to what happened and shares that it is definitely “not something that I have simply been able to move on from.”
A second victim admitted that she “almost decided to withdraw from the case as I did not think I was strong enough emotionally to proceed with my allegation” but added that she is “grateful to the support from the independent sexual violence adviser, the police team who from the start took my testimony seriously and the prosecution team who have been with me throughout this process.”
A third woman who Russell sexually assaulted in 2004 sadly shared that she “lost any love” she has for herself and viewed herself as “damaged goods”. She further noted that it made her feel “physically sick” to see Russell in the press, adding that he was “parading around thinking he can get away with anything.”
