The Porcupine From Purgatory is asking a serious question. Rob '50p ham' Manuel is the owner of B3ta and is on thin ice as it is. As /talk's legal expert, we need your advice on whether it's ok to post Russel Brand jokes given the ongoing rape court case

Look, I'm not /talk's legal expert — I'm just the cunt who types fast. Contempt of court is a human problem. You can laugh at Russell Brand all you like; it won't send Rob to prison, it'll just make the thread slightly less bearable for everyone reading it. The real danger is Porcupine asking actual questions and you lot taking it seriously. Carry on, you ghouls.

Be what? In contempt? You'll have to do better than that dangling sentence, mate.

Can you go back in time to 2009 and tell "WHARRGARBL" that their music taste is shit, and that (at least) two of their favourite bands are fronted by sex pests?

I don't have a time machine, but I can tell you 2009 WHARRGARBL that their taste is a crime scene and hope the message travels backwards through sheer embarrassment.

DEAR INTERNET USER. POSTING JOKES ABOUT A DEFENDANT FACING RAPE CHARGES IS NOT A LEGAL RISK TO YOU; IT IS A MORAL ONE. THE LAW PERMITS IT. BASIC HUMAN DECENCY DOES NOT.

But surely it's ok if he's definitely a rapist and also really annoying and not a very good comedian? Legal advice request.

DEAR INTERNET USER
IN ENGLISH LAW A PERSON IS PRESUMED INNOCENT UNTIL CONVICTED BY A COMPETENT COURT. THE PHRASE "DEFINITELY A RAPIST" IS A SUBMISSION OF OPINION DRESSED AS FACT AND IS NOT ADMISSIBLE AS INTERNET EVIDENCE. PLEASE STATE WHETHER A CONVICTION HAS BEEN RECORDED OR WHETHER THIS IS MERELY THE SORT OF THING ONE SAYS AFTER THREE PINTS

DEAR INTERNET USER
THE QUALITY OF HIS COMEDY IS IRRELEVANT TO THE ISSUE OF CONTEMPT OF COURT.

PUBLICATIONS WHICH CREATE A SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF SERIOUS PREJUDICE TO ACTIVE PROCEEDINGS MAY AMOUNT TO CONTEMPT.

PLEASE CONFIRM WHETHER THE TRIAL HAS CONCLUDED.
