Russell Brand’s wife leaves court after sentencing as prosecutors praise victims

Comedian Russell Brand's wife, Laura Brand, departed London's Southwark Crown Court, where he was sentenced to 10-and-a-half years in jail after his conviction for rape and sexual assault.

"No matter who the abuser is, or what the situation or circumstances are, we will always take allegations of rape and sexual assault seriously," David Roberts from the Crown Prosecution Service said.
