Szilvia Berki was unable to even go to the police to report her sexual assault unless she herself wanted to end up in jail.

Brand and his than partner Jemima Goldsmith claimed she caused them anxiety and distress.

She never went to a full trial - only a summary judgment, never had a lawyer, never got to defend herself and was silenced for life

I knew

I mean, no, you didn't. You got bad vibes from someone who is shitty. You probably have gotten bad vibes from people who aren't due to any number of factors.
