LONDON: A judge Monday jailed British comedian Russell Brand for more than 10 years for a string of sex offences, calling him a “predator” who showed “staggering arrogance” and contempt for his victims.
Brand, 51, showed no emotion as judge Joel Bennathan passed sentence at London’s Southwark Crown Court after the ex-TV star was convicted last week of one rape and three sexual assaults against four women between 2004 and 2009.
