Russell Brand is now being investigated by Thames Valley Police over an allegation of “harassment and stalking” from another woman, according to the BBC. Brand faces several allegations of sexual assault in the wake of the Channel 4 documentary Russell Brand: In Plain Sight: Dispatches. The Thames Valley investigation comes on top of a Metropolitan Police investigation into a “number of allegations of sexual offenses” occurring between 2006 and 2013.
In regards to the harassment and stalking claims, this accuser apparently reported her allegations “numerous times between 2018 and 2022 but no further action was taken,” per the BBC. Thames Valley Police are now looking into “new information” in the case, but told the outlet, “it would be inappropriate to comment on an ongoing investigation.” Brand himself reportedly accused the woman of harassment in 2017.
The comedian has denied all of the allegations against him, saying in a statement that all of his relationships have been consensual. He has gone on to imply that “legacy media” was aligned against him, saying in a video, “It appears that apparently independent or at least separate news organizations are collaborating—and I hesitate to use this word—conspiring to control global news narratives in some of the most important stories in the world.”
The Channel 4 documentary, a joint investigation with The Times and The Sunday Times, featured stories from four women alleging assault against Brand, including one who was just 16 at the time of her encounter with him. The Metropolitan Police subsequently received additional allegations regarding “non-recent” offenses, including an “alleged sexual assault in Soho, central London, in 2003,” according to the BBC. In a statement, the Met’s Central Specialist Crime Command Det Supt Andy Furphy said, “We continue to encourage anyone who believes they may have been a victim of a sexual offense, no matter how long ago it was, to contact us.”

I can’t believe the creepy conspiracy theorist rapist who looks like a homeless guy is also stalker!!!
Russel Brand an absolute piece of shit? Why, if you had told me that in 2008, I…would have said “yeah, that tracks.”
They say you should never judge a book by its cover, but sometimes the book has the words “I’m a massive creep who talks constantly about sexually harassing women” on the cover and maybe that’s worth thinking about.
You can’t accuse me of harassment, because I accuse you!!!
…and grosser.
This guy got a pass for years until he started using wrongspeak.
One of the bad things about folks getting rich and powerful: If they had really horrid tendencies before, those tendencies now have a lot more power, with fewer obstacles.
Ever since I won the PowerBall I have torn all the mattress tags.All of them.
Meanwhile Dane Cook just married the girl he started dating when she was 18 and he was in his 40s.What I’m saying, people, is stay away from comedians to cut down on your chances of getting sex pested.Except Mitch Hedberg seemed cool.
So who plays Brand in the inevitable feature film that gets made about this? I think it could be the role that wins Bill Hader his first Oscar.
Don’ you go Rounin’ Roun to Re Ro!
Oh hey another episode of Broseph the Vampire is about to start!
