- Victims described lasting impacts from the offences.

## Summary

Russell Brand was sentenced to 10 years and six months in prison after being convicted of rape and three sexual assaults. A former HMP Wandsworth prisoner warned that Brand could be at risk while held there, describing him as a “marked man” and saying he should keep his head down until he is transferred.

The former inmate described Wandsworth as violent and said Brand would be outside his comfort zone, but the article presents this as the person’s warning rather than a confirmed threat. The judge called Brand a “sexual predator” and said he had shown contempt towards women; victims described lasting effects, including time away from work.
