Make Page Six a Preferred Source Russell Brand is reportedly being assessed for a transfer to the notorious “Monster Mansion” prison after the comedian was convicted on rape and sexual assault charges.
According to the Sun, the “Get Him to the Greek” star, 51, will be moved to the high-security facility HMP Wakefield in the UK — the same prison child sex offender Ian Watkins was stabbed to death last year.
A source told the outlet on Thursday that Brand “will have an incredibly tough time.”
Sources told the outlet the prison, which classified Category A facility, would be safer for the disgraced comedian due to staff being “better equipped.”
“Brand is being risk- assessed for a move to Wakefield,” one source told the outlet. “There are still some hoops to go through but staff at the prison are expecting him.”
Brand is currently incarcerated at Category B Wandsworth, the source added, “but is likely to be moved in the next few days or weeks.” The sourced claimed Wakefield is “the most likely place” for Brand to be sent.
