Cult leader Chris Brain abused position to sexually assault 'staggering number of women', court hears
- Earlier this week, Christopher Brain, 68, a former Church of England priest, began trial at Inner London Crown Court on 37 charges, with the prosecutor calling it a “staggering number” of women affected.
- During his leadership, the Nine O'Clock Service became a closed, controlled group where Brain exploited his spiritual authority to sexually assault numerous women, isolating members from families.
- Among 1981-1995, Brain used the inner circle called 'the Lycra Lovelies' and picked women up in his car to assault them, court hears.
- Currently, Brain denies all 37 charges, with the trial expected to last eight weeks at Inner London Crown Court.
- Beyond the courtroom, the Nine O'Clock Service drew national attention via TV programmes and books after 1995 allegations and prompted Bishop Stephen Lowe to raise concerns in 1995.
