Russell Brand has been sentenced to 10 years and six months in a British prison for raping one woman and sexually assaulting three others. Judge Joel Bennathan denounced Brand’s “casual and arrogant disregard” for any woman who said no to him, and castigated him for the series of lies he told in testimony denying assaults that dated back to 2004.
