News24 host Paul Murray condemns Russell Brand following the court's verdict, saying he had deliberately held back from commenting throughout the trial. “I've held off saying a single word about Russell Brand during his trial, but I'll say exactly what I said when the documentary first came out. What a pig,” Mr Murray said. “I am so glad that the court has gone the way that it has, and we will find out in the next couple of days about how long he's going to spend in jail.”
