Alleged victim told her parents and others about attack and was encouraged to go to police but she feared she would not be believed

A woman told her mother that Russell Brand had raped her and “didn’t stop even when she screamed out in pain”, a court has heard.

She also told a colleague she was “bleeding everywhere” and Brand shouted at her, saying: “Look what you’ve done to my fucking sheets.”

British authorities were unable to investigate case of Christopher Mooty, who went on to commit another offence

The US military failed to notify British police of an allegation that one of its airmen had been drink-driving in Suffolk, preventing the British authorities from being able to investigate the offence.

The failure broke a longstanding formal agreement with British police that enables the UK to investigate alleged illegality by US military personnel who are stationed in Britain.
