Chris Brown
On Wednesday, March 19, 2014,
the Judiciary
Report stated of Chris Brown’s pending assault case hearing
in Washington, “Brown’s attorney may choose to settle the case, in a
bid to keep him from spending 4-years in jail. Recently, rapper
Kanye West settled a case where he hit a man for telling his
Armenian fiancé, Kim Kardashian that she is a “ni**er lover.” That
was hate speech. West should have played it smart, called the police
and had the man arrested for harassment and hate speech, then sued
him. Instead West hit him, then reportedly had to issue a six figure
settlement to stay out of jail.”
L.A. jail
The next day, the website TMZ wrote the same thing,
stating their source is saying Brown’s lawyer Mark Geragos is
looking into settling the Washington assault case. It is the logical
legal maneuver. While the Judiciary Report is of the belief the
Washington assault case is fraudulent and the complainant doesn’t
deserve a dime, as he provoked the incident via stalking, harassment
and trespassing on a tour bus, which should have resulted in
charges, Brown is in a strange predicament.
L.A. jail
Brown’s probation is in jeopardy due to the case. He
could face up to 4-years in jail. If he is placed in a Los Angeles
jail, that could amount to 1 to 2-years of his life behind bars. If
he is placed in jail in Washington, with new charges, it could
amount to far more jail time. It’s not worth years of one’s life.
It’s better to settle, even though the case looks fraudulent on the
complainant’s end. If the case is settled, prosecutors would have
difficulty proceeding. When such cases are settled, the criminal
aspects usually disappear.

Chris Brown I Can Get Out of Jail For the Right Price
3/20/2014 1:00 AM PDT BY TMZ STAFF - It sure seemed
Chris Brown was checkmated -- sitting in jail as the clock ticks for
his D.C. assault trial that could trigger a probation violation in
the Rihanna case that could land him in prison for 4 years .... but
TMZ has learned his lawyer has found a way out of the hole ... by
paying LOTS OF MONEY.
Sources connected with the D.C. assault case tell
TMZ ... Chris' lawyer, Mark Geragos, has contacted the lawyer for
the man who claims Chris assaulted him in D.C., breaking his nose,
and offered him a BIG FAT CHECK. We're told Geragos is gunning for a
civil settlement ... which could very well mean the broken nose guy
would tell prosecutors he no longer has an interest in pursuing the
criminal case. And our sources say prosecutors are aware of the
civil settlement negotiations.
We're told Geragos may have already sealed the deal
but if not ... it should be done in a day or 2. So here's the likely
resolution. The alleged victim gets a ton of money (our educated
guess is several hundred thousand dollars), D.C. prosecutors drop
the criminal assault case and the Rihanna judge then lets Chris out
of jail either late this week or early next. Smart move.
