YouTube suspends Russell Brand from making money off his channel — The suspension comes following the publication of rape and sexual assault allegations against the British star::YouTube has blocked Russell Brand from making money off its platform and the BBC pulled some of his shows from its online streaming service in the wake of rape and sexual assault allegations against the comedian-turned-influencer.
Yeah. Here:
Of all those claims, these stuck out:
-
a 16 year old in 2006 when he was 30 and gave her instructions to hide from parents. Underage is rape.
-
In 2012 he is accused of raping a woman who was treated in a Rape Treatment Center afterwards.
-
In 2020, there was another 16 year old and evidently his manager believed him at first and then issued a statement saying he was misled and terminated business with him.
I only see allegations, no convictions. Remember what happened to Kevin Spacey and Julian Assange?
For what it’s worth: I’m not saying he’s innocent. But to go from allegation to conviction, you’ll need a judge in my book. Not a trial by media.
Well there are cases where one unnamed source makes an unprovable accusation, and then there are cases with multiple alleged victims over the span of a decade…
don’t pretend like it would be impossible for the powers that be to conjure up people to make simultaneous accusations to get someone out of the public arena
