@thetimes: On the 18th day of the trial of Russell Brand, we join Times Crime Correspondent Jess Sharkey outside Southwark Crown Court as she waits for a verdict. Not knowing when that verdict will come, Jess is sitting in a corridor all day waiting for the moment when a voice comes over the loud speakers, calling her into the courtroom. In the meantime, while the court was on its lunch break, we took the opportunity to ask her some listener questions: why has this trial been so short? Does the verdict really have to be unanimous? And what happens if the twelve jurors can’t agree? Russell Brand denies all the allegations against him. #russellbrand #podcaster #jury #evidence #trial
