Russell Brand‘s firing back at the charges leveled against him by the British government … claiming he may have dealt with drug and sex addiction — but, he never raped anyone.
The actor shared a video to his X account mere minutes ago … kicking it off by saying the only positive about people realizing the rule of law is being wielded like a weapon in Britain is that everyone can see his innocence.
After speaking in generalities for a while, Brand addresses the allegations head-on … admitting before he met his wife and had kids he was a “fool” in the throes of drug and sex addictions.
Despite being an addict, Brand makes it clear … he was never a rapist and never engaged in nonconsensual sex with anyone — and, he adds he hopes everyone can tell the truth just by looking in his eyes.
Brand thanks all of his fans for their continued support … and plugs his hit show on Rumble — next episode scheduled for release on Monday.
As you know … Russell was charged with one count of rape, one count of indecent assault, one count of oral rape and 2 counts of sexual assault Friday.

The alleged incidents are said to have occurred between 1999 and 2004 … and, the charges are bringing renewed interest to past interviews Brand has given — including one from 2007 with disgraced media personality Jimmy Savile.
Brand’s expected to appear in court May 2.
