Chris Brown
R&B singer Chris Brown has been sentenced to 1 year
in jail for violating his probation in the Rihanna domestic violence
case. Brown had to face Los Angeles Judge James Brandlein on two
issues - violating rules set specifically for him in rehab, via
touching an employees elbow and arm, when he was ordered to stay two
feet away from all female staff and refusing to take a drug test for
hours upon his return to the Malibu facility. He passed the
subsequent drug test.
Parker Adams
Brown has already served 7-weeks in jail. To get a
reduced sentence, Brown had to agree that he violated his probation
in Washington, via getting into a fight with local man Parker Adams,
who stalked and photobombed the beleaguered singer. Otherwise, Brown
faced up to 4-years in jail. Brown took the plea deal his lawyer
Mark Geragos negotiated. With credit for time served, coupled with
significant overcrowding in Los Angeles jails, Brown could be
released shortly.
Chris Brown's girlfriend Karrueche Tran
Brown has been depressed and confused over his
current legal woes, not fully understanding the legal process
regarding what has happened. The judge gave Brown a break and he
should take advantage of it upon his release, to make some changes
in his life and do his best to avoid certain situations where his
security is compromised.
