Russell Brand's Cryptic Message to Elon Musk as He 'Speaks Out' From Jail

The post follows Brand’s 10-year, six-month prison sentence and Meta’s removal of his Instagram and Facebook accounts, while his X profile remains active.

  • On Wednesday, Russell Brand posted to X from HMP Wandsworth, reaching out to Elon Musk after the billionaire showed support. The message ended with 'Stay tuned,' hinting at further activity.
  • Justice Bennathan sentenced the 51-year-old Brand to 10 years and six months in jail on Monday, slamming his 'staggering arrogance.' Brand was convicted of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault.
  • Meta disabled Brand's Instagram and Facebook accounts following his imprisonment, citing Community Standards violations. The platform stated, 'We disabled your account. You no longer have access to russellbrand.'
  • The Metropolitan Police confirmed further criminal allegations against Brand have emerged since his trial began. Detectives are assessing information from several individuals who contacted the force during and after his case.
  • Trump defended Brand on Tuesday's edition of his Triggered programme, implying the comedian was targeted for his newfound faith and conservative shift. Trump questioned why no one considered him a rapist during his prior 27 years.
