re: Russell Brand sentenced to 10 years 6 months imprisonment in the UK

I never thought the movie V for Vendetta would become a documentary but here we are in modern day England, not even 25 years since it was filmed.

I'm not sure about everyone else, but if a chick sticks her tongue in my booty hole everything else seems insignificant.

As big of a travesty of justice as the George Floyd verdict.

It's insane that a woman can just show up and say you did something, and with absolutely no evidence at all they just convict you and throw you in jail.

Rape accusations are extremely difficult to prove/try but ones from 15 years ago? Impossible.

All physical evidence is gone. All witnesses can't remember anything.

It literally is just throwing someone in jail on the basis of someone's accusation alone.

If you read the exact details of the accusation too it's extra insane. She acknowledges she engaged in tons of consensual sex with him but he did things she didn't specifically consent to.

It's obvious they went after him because they didn't like him. If he were a Muslim raping children he would have gotten probation.

There are now apps to log consent between two adults, but they don't necessarily create a legal compact.

A couple of Android options are currently listed on Google Play:

Consent lets each person express boundaries and can create a timestamped summary. Its listing says the summary is not a contract or legal evidence.

Yes or No: consentement describes a digitally sealed, timestamped record, but also says it does not constitute legal evidence.

I assume that's because it can't differentiate the circumstances. Is someone inebriated or on a drug? Was there coercion? Was consent revoked if one party did something, like turn the other over and that person have anal sex unwillingly, like with RB? But at least that's something for the record.
