Surrey man who raped and sexually assaulted teenage girls jailed
He's been handed a five year prison sentence
A 22-year-old man from Epsom has been sentenced to five years and six months in prison for a range of sexual offences.
Scott Brand was convicted last December of one count of rape, two counts of sexual assault by penetration and six counts of sexual assault.
His crimes involved three teenager girls.
The offences, which took place when Brand used different names to conceal his identity, first came to light in June 2021 when a 17-year-old girl reported being sexually assaulted at Brand’s home.
She detailed the attack involving choking with a metal object, immediately disclosed the incident to a friend, and later reported it to Metropolitan Police, leading to Brand’s arrest.
A second victim, also 17 at the time, reported enduring repeated violent sexual offences which similarly involved choking and hitting while she was unconscious or asleep. She also stated, “My views on how relationships are formed are now very distorted due to what happened.”
The two girls revealed Brand went by the name “Oskar” when with them, and further interviews uncovered additional offences, including oral rape and attacks at an abandoned golf course.
A third victim, aged 16 at the time, subsequently identified Brand, who introduced himself as ‘Damon,’ as perpetrating a forceful sexual assault at her home following pressure during their relationship.
Advice from the CPS led to Brand being charged with 11 offences, including two rapes, sexual assault by penetration, and multiple counts of sexual assault.
Though initially convicted in June 2025 of one count of sexual assault by penetration concerning the third victim, a retrial in December 2025 secured convictions for rape, sexual assault by penetration, and multiple sexual assaults against the first two victims.
During the sentencing, one victim read out an impact statement saying, “No woman should ever go through something like that, no woman should ever be afraid that they will be assaulted by their next partner...”
The victims expressed gratitude towards DC Jamie Vernon, the case officer, for his support throughout the investigation.
DC Jamie Vernon praised the victims for their resilience, commenting, “The nearly five years it took to finally secure justice was extremely traumatic, but they showed remarkable bravery and resilience. I am incredibly proud of them and have watched them grow into strong young women.”
