00:00Today's verdict is in relation to offending that took place between 2004 and 2009 against four different women.
00:08None of these women knew each other.
00:10But the lifelong impact of these vile crimes cannot be underestimated.
00:15I'm pleased today that justice has been served for these victims.
00:19The evidence showed Brand to be a calculated sexual predator,
00:24using his growing fame and power to create situations in which he could pursue women sexually, regardless of what they
00:31wanted.
00:32I would like to thank all the women for coming forward and reporting Brand to the police.
00:38It is thanks to their courage that he will finally face the consequences of his actions.
