Russell Brand could go to 'Monster Mansion' prison where sex offender was killed: report

Russell Brand is reportedly being assessed for a transfer to a notorious prison dubbed Monster Mansion, with a source telling The Sun that he will have an incredibly tough time there. This comes after the comedian was convicted on rape and sexual assault charges and sentenced to over 10 years in prison. According to The Sun, the Get Him to the Greek star will be moved to the high security facility in the UK, officially named HMP Wakefield. But the prison has a troubled past. Just last year, a child sex offender was stabbed to death inside. One source says Brand is being risk assessed for the transfer, but there are still some hoops to go through. The source added that Brand is likely to be moved in the next few days or weeks. They also named the Monster Mansion prison as the most likely place for him to be sent. They added it is one of the prisons where high profile people often get sent, and despite the fatal stabbing last year, it is deemed a safer place for Brand. But still the source noted there are some really nasty killers and sex offenders there, and Brand will have to be kept away from. This news comes as Brand faces accusations of sexual misconduct by six additional women. Brand, who has denied wrongdoing, was convicted of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault. He's been incarcerated since November 5th and has reportedly spent his time behind bars praying for hours and trying not to show fear. The prison he's currently at is reportedly inhumane, overcrowded, and vermin-infested. Page Six also exclusively learned that Brand will not be allowed any visitors on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, or New Year's Day due to prison rules.
