Summary
Bear Grylls said “justice has now been served” after Russell Brand was convicted in London of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault.
Grylls, who was present at Brand’s 2024 baptism in the River Thames, said Brand’s faith had seemed genuine but added he would not want to discourage anyone from coming to faith.
Brand was acquitted of two other rape charges and one count of attempted indecent assault, and was taken into police custody to await sentencing on Monday.
Six women testified about alleged incidents between 1999 and 2009, and the Metropolitan Police said they are investigating further rape allegations from two more women.
