Russell Brand faces seven charges, including three counts of rape and three charges of sexual assault.
The woman told the court Brand appeared to find the incident funny after grabbing her breasts and forcefully kissing her. She stated she was pinned against a wall in a radio station corridor, groped and kissed, while others present did not intervene.
The complainant described the encounter as 'rough' and 'very, very rough.' She added, 'It was hard, I would say that his whole body was pressed against me, the kisses were hard and sloppy, going down my neck.'
She further claimed, 'The reason I used the word frenzied is because it was just … violent. It was hard and he just wasn’t stopping.'
She recounted Brand making a sound 'like funny – ha ha – like that' after he stumbled back. The prosecution, via witness testimony, also claims Brand laughed after pinning a woman against a wall and kissing her 'sloppily' at a radio station.
The accuser came forward to police after seeing a 2023 Dispatches documentary about sexual misconduct allegations against Brand. She stated, 'I had buried it so deep for so long.'
I had buried it so deep for so long.
She spoke of a 'culture of fear' and the power dynamics at play. She noted, 'Russell Brand was an A-lister star, it was Big Brother, people were watching it, we all watched it.'
She also questioned, 'I wonder if I was alone with him what would have happened.'
