I have no love for Brand - in fact, with his descent into cultish 'alternative facts'/conspiracy theory rabbit hole, I think he's probably at least partially responsible for a similar negative drift in Morrissey, and has been a bad influence on Moz and many others.
That said, the place where people should be judged for alledged rape/sexual assault and other crimes should be in a court of law, not the press or the court of public opinion. We've had similar crap going on with Kevin Spacey for the past few years, which has so far resulted in sweet FA being proved. Leave it to the police.
