The Sunday Times leads on its interview with a woman who alleges that she was raped by Russell Brand when she was 16. Mia Latter was one of six women who made allegations against Brand in 2023 as part of a Times, Sunday Times and Channel 4's Dispatches investigation. She was known under the pseudonym 'Alice'. She has now waived her right to anonymity and is campaigning for a staggered age of consent. Brand denied the allegations at the time. None of the women in the 2023 media investigation were complainants in his recent criminal trial, which culminated in his sentencing on Monday to 10 and a half years for one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault.
