Russell Brand accusers 'haunted' for years by alleged crimes, court hears

In closing arguments, prosecutor Riel Karmy-Jones KC stated that six women who accused Russell Brand were haunted for years by his alleged crimes. The court heard that these women, who do not know one another, acted bravely to seek closure rather than fame. The prosecutor emphasised that the accusers had nothing to gain and were not influenced by media reporting, asserting that they came forward independently after realising they were not alone in their experiences.
