<p>Gordon Smart was the editor of The Scottish Sun, and deputy editor of the Sun. But before that, he was the paper's showbiz editor who got to know very well, among others, Russell Brand. He sits down with Emily and Lewis to talk about the man that's been accused of sexual assault and rape, as...

Todays NewsAgents podcast has an interview with someone who also mentioned the dog story. Its a very interesting listen from someone who worked in the rags the times Brand was at the peak of his fame and even hung out with Brand.

They also covered this on an episode earlier this week with Rosamund Urwin, Media Editor at The Sunday Times discussing what led to the initial investigation and other stuff related to the reporting/investigation.

One thing mentioned, not for the 1st time, is that Brands style of content and following changed, right around when the investigations began. The implication being he knew stuff was gonna come out and set up an alternative following that would help him when the allegations eventually came out. Very early in this thread someone showed a twitter randomer making that guess a while back. One of his accusers "Alice" has also this week said that his change in following was to gain support/following, preemptively to the allegations being published.

Anyway, they are both worth a listen and seem very balanced to me and helped me understand more of the background.

Sounds like he adapted and realised his psychopathic behaviour needed to be supressed. What he did was with that dog is just not normal on any level. He is talking about having different personalities. He is tormenting it and getting enjoyment from not just hurting it but playing with its emotions.

An ex is a child psychologist up in Manchester, she used to tell me about some of the stuff kids she treated did (obviously no names) and she had some that hurt animals and lets just say she didn't think they were healthy members of society.

That's not how you spot psychopathic behaviour in its early onset. Plenty of kids boil ants (somehow seems to be a common thing), I've put snails in water buckets, I've had friends who shot birds close range with an air rifle, another who hanged an already dead rabbit off a bridge for the amusement of knowing car drivers will see it and be shocked. None of this is an indication of being a psychopath, none of the people in question even showed signs of being psychopaths later in life.

Your ex sounds like a bimbo making such a simple statement. What I've noticed is an aptitude for psychology is not something that's taught but more like a sixth sense. Having a degree in psychology means nothing. Most psychologists are only capable of formulaic analysis (taught) rather than have a natural understanding of how humans work.

or dated 16 year olds/ invited them round ?...

maybe brand's solicitor has categorically told him to shut up - but wouldn't he be trying to plead his case if he thought his behaviour was so moral - doubt he would accept an interview with Emily Maitles.
We'll have to see if his wife stands by him, too - litmus test.

Brands just posted a video on Rumble, he's going nowhere for now by the looks.

He's talking about what he did as a seven year old child once, which he regrets, and you're attempting to turn in to Freud and act like he's a closet serial killer. I'd imagine if we went through any of our childhoods you might find a time we did something naughty, there isn't a pattern of animal abuse from him though; distinctly the opposite actually given he's a committed vegan.

Did something naughty?? He didn't steal 50p from his mum's purse. He abused an animal physically and psychologically and took pleasure from it. The way it is written above doesn't sound like this was a one off. Have you got the actual quote from a book.
And not all psychopaths are killers Roar.

Ok so I read it and where does he say he did it only once? It reads like it was a regular event.

You are comparing drowning ants to what he did to his dog? Shooting birds with an air rifle is hardly odd behaviour is it, its kind of what an air rifle of every teenage boy gets used for at one time or another.

Like a bimbo? :cry: :cry: Did you write that while revising for your Top G test at Hustlers University?

No. I started replying to this thread as a fan on his side and wanting to see the best in him. The more I've read about him, some of it from his own revelations I've realised he's a narcissistic sociopath with no human empathy who would be capable of the most evil things to boost his ego. He's pretty much admitted on air to most of the things he's been accused of.

I won't go into the women's revelations (which are solid evidence), instead look at what he said about his childhood. In his biography he admitted his step father banned his dog from going up the stairs. So he would call the dog to come up the stairs, when it did as he said he called it a 'bad dog' and kicked it all the way down the stairs. He would then walk down the stairs and cuddle the dog to mess with it's sense of reality. That's from Brand himself. He laughed about the dog believing the Russell upstairs was the good twin and the Russell downstairs was the bad twin.

An animal abuser is a classic trait of serial killer

I wasn't replying to you unless you've unmasked a 2nd account by mistake?

I hadn't directly heard of those revelations before (I saw the title of a video which eluded to that though). I've heard his father (or step father?) was paying prostitutes to have sex with Brand while his parent was having sex in the same room. I've also read he was abused by a teacher at a young age too, which I suspect accounts for his hyper sexuality. Some child abuse victims become overly sexual later in life.

There is definitely a question mark over his boundaries. He's reported to have had sex with thousands of women per year. So the allegations aren't out of the realms of possibility.

But until he's at least been charged and in court then these allegations nobody can sure he definitely crossed the line on these occasions.

You realise in context he was 7 years and probably the same size as the dog, people mentioning this are scraping the bottom barrel.
