All of the top comments in this thread seem very astroturfed. All saying the same thing, all wrong about the doctrinal implications of legal presumptions.

It is very concerning how prominent the "innocent until proven guilty" phrase is getting thrown around. Nothing weird has happened here and this idea never applied anywhere but a courtroom, and yet all these commenters seem convinced of the opposite of both points.

He's the fakest piece of shit around. Not surprising at all.

I've always hated his fake cockney bullshit. You can hear when his accent slips and then suddenly he's all "Knees up muvva brown!" for the next 30 seconds.

Fucking piece of shit is from Essex, the most trash place in the entire UK.

Didn’t he practically brag about treating women like shit until he had a daughter? That’s what his rebirth special was cringefully about. He was literally making money about talking about treating women like shit.

Lots of pro-rapists in this thread. Fuck Russel Brand and fuck Google (obviously)
