Actor Luke Ford was sentenced to 16 years in jail for sexual assault and rape in Scotland for posing as a Brad Pitt stand-in.

The 35-year-old actor terrorized his victims over 12 years from 2008 to 2020 and faced charges of abusing a total of nine women.

Σκωτία: Έλεγε ότι αντικαθιστούσε τον Μπραντ Πιτ σε ταινίες και βίαζε γυναίκες - Καταδικάστηκε σε 16 χρόνια φυλακή

Among the charges, is rape for concealing the fact that he did not use a condom during the sex act, a charge that is being brought in Scotland for the first time.

Ford, who said he was an actor and claimed to have replaced Brad Pitt in some of the scenes in World War Z, approached his victims via dating apps.

He took videos and photographs of these women, then threatened to send the footage to colleagues and friends if they did not obey his sickening wishes.
