Brand found guilty on 17:10 - Nov 7 by GlasgowBlue
A friend of my wife's from Uni was involved in the Edinburgh comedy scene around this time. She was advised not to be alone with him.
As somebody posted earlier in this thread "Feels like a case of people close to him at the time at least having some suspicion that all was not right with him".
If his "problematic" behavior was known at the time in comedy circles then he shouldn't have been indulged as he was.
Maybe my downvoter thought this was funny as well.

Some people within the comedy circuit knew about him and what he was like. But not sure the people who were laughing in the clip which you posted knew - I doubt it.

Sky News aired somebody working with the Good Law project claiming tht several members of a well known Irish Rap act and an English comedian/author have allegedly been using SLAPPs to silence accusations of sexual violence.

SLAPPs though are of a different nature to harassment orders which are good thing: think the bullying ex-partner or the stalker of a well-known celebrity. And the conduct involved may also lead to a criminal conviction.
And I am not sure your edit will be sufficient for Phil's purposes because it still gives away a fair degree of information, and even extends it to another person whom Sky presumably hasn't identified.

The person's interview is still on Sky News so I didn't really need to edit.
Antisemites, Jew haters and crashing bores will be put on ignore.

Why do you doubt it? More and more people from the comedy world coming out saying they knew.

I don’t think he’s funny, and I don’t think you’re funny.
Weaponising the rape and sexual assault of multiple women to have repeated attacks on a football message board at a bloke you haven’t liked for a decade or so, is the behaviour of an absolute wrongun.
I really don’t understand why your behaviour is tolerated here.

Really don’t think this thread is the place for this sort of point scoring, or GB was doing that. You’re also talking about a bloke who victim blamed earlier this week then edited it when confronted, so I think the personal stuff is best done off the thread when it’s been such a good discussion.

Indeed. If anyone is attacking other posters then is VT. Pretty sad waving around imaginary red cards. I have;t mentioned another poster on this thread.
Bizarre to downvote my post in the first place. Didn't see the victim blaming so can't comment.
As you say, this thread was conducted in a sensitive and civil manner.

I wonder what kind of sentence he will get today. I think we are looking around 10 years minimum. Will give him time at least to memorise all the passages from the bible.

10.5 years.
Good, absolute c*** of a bloke.
I’m surprised it’s that light reading the evidence and verdict. I wonder if there’s an eye on him getting additional time when the new cases are tried.

I believe there are another couple of cases against him being investigated and may result in further charges. How can his missus stand by him? Which she seemingly is at the moment. She should take the kids and get far away from him.

Seems likely. As it stands he'll be out in 7, but I'd be amazed if he's not back in the dock before he's served that.

I have become fascinated with Court TV recently. Watching people getting their sentences live. I cannot imaging how it feels to be sentenced to years and years in prison. Some of them get a minimum of 25 years or similar. Just compelling viewing.
Glad justice has been done. It's a shame we couldn't see him like we can see the Americans.

I just heard some of the judgement on the car radio - the stuff about what he did to that women post rape is unfathomably disgusting. I think hes got off lightly.
Has anyone ever looked at their own postings for last day or so? Oh my... so sorry. Was Ullaa

By all accounts, others are coming forward, he'll be on trial again, he'll be in his 70's by the time he tastes freedom again.

Great news, hope he get his comeuppance inside. Prisions aren't the most forgiving when it comes to sexual predators as I understand it. Really hope his status doesn't give him any special treatment.
10.5 years, is that enough or too little? I have no idea how they gauge these things. If he can be out in half that time then it seems light
