A complainant in the ongoing trial against comedian and actor Russell Brand told a court that she "closed her eyes and tried not to be there" during an alleged rape.
The testimony was delivered during court proceedings addressing multiple historical allegations against Brand. The 51-year-old defendant faces a total of seven charges involving multiple complainants, including three counts of rape, three charges of sexual assault, and one charge of indecent assault.
The trial continues as the court examines evidence and hears testimony from witnesses regarding the allegations, which span incidents from years past.
Legal proceedings are ongoing, and no final verdicts have been reached regarding the charges.
