Always thought the person in question was quite funny as well.

Why not just arrest all gay comedians and then they will at least have the culprit. It will be sad for the innocent ones that go to jail but thems the breaks.

im gonna simply ignore this foolishness tbh. A white man with short brown hair and brown eyes rapes a woman, so the only way of catching the guy is catching all straight men with short brown hair and brown eyes, of course!

How was it 'grooming'? They were in a legal and consensual relationship. Typical Mail homophobia

Did some research though and I didn't even know the comedian in question was gay, how baffling

I'm not sure if it can be said on here for legal reasons? If you type Ben Cowburn into the Twitter search box though it'll tell you

His Twitter account is still active as well which is quite disturbing
