Comedian Samantha Pressdee says her approaching the police to accuse someone of rape “was not a horrible experience” as debate raged between panellists discussing if victims should report to the law or journalists first.
Ms Pressdee joined Piers Morgan Uncensored to debate the fallout and trial by media of rape allegations directed at Russell Brand.
“It wasn’t a horrible experience going to the police – the man was arrested,” she said when recalling the encounter of reporting a sexual assault against her.
“He said that I consented, so that was it.
“It went to the Crown Prosecution Service and they said, well it will be your word against his in court.
“It is not that we don’t believe you, but we have now got this on record if he does it to anyone else.”
