The jury has begun considering the verdicts in Russell Brand's rape and sexual assault trial. The media personality, 51, has been on trial at Southwark Crown Court in London for three weeks, facing charges related to allegations from six women spanning a decade.
Prosecutors said the complainants described him as someone who 'didn't listen' when they said no, and 'didn't care'. Brand's barrister told jurors that he had an immense amount of sex, but that none of it was unlawful.
