Leaked Photo Could Undo Brown Case
Posted on Wed Apr 29, 2009 03:40 PM PDT
LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - The leaking of a photograph showing a bruised and beaten Rihanna could become a major turning point in the case against Chris Brown.
Appearing in a Los Angeles Courtroom on Wednesday, attorney Mark Garagos asked for access to an internal LAPD investigation about the photo's leak.
He could use information from that case to show "misconduct or bias" on behalf of investigators which could lead to a mistrial or the dismissal of charges.
Meanwhile, Brown's attorneys are reportedly working behind the scenes on a plea bargain that would keep the R&B singer out of jail.
However, if no deal is reached, the case against Brown will move forward with a preliminary hearing in June.
Brown is charged with two felony counts for allegedly beating girlfriend Rihanna on the night before the Grammy's.
Also on Wednesday, a judge ordered the return of $1.4 million dollars worth of jewelry Rihanna was wearing on the night of the incident. Investigators had been holding the items for evidence.

send him to jail ... partner abuse is NEVER, I repeat NEVER ok and Rihanna is a coward not to publicly denounce this excuse of a man!
Just because it linked out to the public of the incident, she should be allowed to deal with this privately. I do hope she moves on from him.
Put him in General population, and see how he likes it in the showers. What a punk.
girl basher
just send him to jail. And rhianna is stupid if she is defending him or worse getting back together with him
just like all black men beating up the light skinned women. what a loser
Being a victim of spousal abuse, I say convict him! She should walk away from him and not look back! They DON'T stop hitting you! I know that from experience! I divorced my ex and don't miss him...but I did make sure he got the assault conviction.
To "Anonymous" who stupidly stated there are 2 sides to every story, there is absolutely positively no other side of the story to support this scumbag chris brown for assaulting a woman. He is a big time loser who is also a coward. i hope his black ass gets sent to prison where he will see what it feels like to be beaten. Unfortunately, with all the left wing liberals clogging up the legal system, he will probably walk away with probation.
chris brown the all time loser didn't learn to abuse women in school. this type of behaviour was probably learned first hand at home, where he was either a victim of abuse himself or witnessed his mother being abused by his father, and most likely nothing was done about it. rihanna is a complete idiot if she even considers staying with him, and if that's the case, the 2 idiots deserve each other. i wonder what chris brown's parents have to say about their precious son--and i won't hold my breath waiting for either of them to come forward and admit they failed as parents in teaching their barbaric son not to ever resort to violence, especially against a woman. shame on the entire brown family--all the money this idiot made and he can't use it to buy himself a BRAIN!!!!
chris brown is nothing but a selfish, self-centered, egotistical PUNK!!!
Whoever said Waterboard this guy...HELL YEAH I'd be happy to do it! He's a little punk kid that will get what is comin to him mistrial or conviction...KARMA IS A MOFO!!!
sooner or later blacks act out how they were raised and their true colors show.
Yes, absolutely, because whites never hit their girlfriends....please keep talking because the more you talk the more ignorant you sound. It's not about color....IF he beat her, then he deserves to be punished, plain and simple.
Yes I agree he should pay. But I think that bringing race into it undermines everyone involved. Abusers come in every race, religion, size and in both sexes.
To the stupid, redneck, KKK members posting here about black men - This is not a racial issue you morons. I don't care if he is orange with yellow polka dots, he deserves to have someone beat his punk ass. It takes a real dumbass and a coward to beat up on a woman. If the girl stays with him, I have no sympathy for her either.
" It takes a real dumbass and a coward to beat up on a woman." Absolutely and that's the bottom line.
I teach in a public grade school and the real tragedy is, most of the kids seem to think that what happened is ok, or they don't attach much importance to it. Abusers, male or female, need time in prison. Then and only then, will the message become clear that beating up on people is not ok.
THEY SHOULD SHOW HIM GETTING HIS ASS WOOPED ON CABLE SO EVERYONE CAN SEE IT
I was raised to never hit a woman, but evidently he was not. He should pay for his decision with real jail time.
?? If she would have stayed down?? So now the victim can't fight back or defend themselves? Is this like a new case of martyrdom at the hands of an abuser?? Hopefully he goes to jail and grows up. He needs it. Hopefully she grows up too, and gets a real man. There are plenty out there....
They might be a superstar couple to some of his people. I think he's a real woman beater and a fake pop star. Rihanna think she likes to get beat and her music sucks too, so let them be together and move on.
I am appalled at the comment, "if she would have stayed down, he would have quit". WTF? Only a moron would say something like that. HE had no right to hurt her regardless of what she did or didn't do! Whoever posted that is clearly an idiot and probably an abuser themselves. Get some counseling!
Why is it that everybody is so quick to say what Rihanna should do, or How stupid Rihanna is for doing this or not doing that, or How much Chris isn't a man for this? When these same people would not say a word, NOT ONE SINGLE WORD, if it was somebody in their family, group of friends, or in their immediate community that was getting beat up or doing the beating. Why do people feel so big to speak up when it is someone they don't even know, but if it was someone they knew, they would be very quiet about it?
He beat up a women. wow happens all the time. so who cares just cause there famous is the only reason most people are weighing in here. she deserved i am sure
yall white people better stop making races comments about blacks yall think this crap is cool god is gonna burn all yall in hell
The comments regarding blacks are actually true. Check the FBI Uniform Crime Reports for the past ten years if you don't believe me. Blacks make up around 20% of the population but account for nearly 50% of all crime - and if you've ever been around blacks you'd know it's really no suprise
there's no reason for any ONE person to hit ANOTHER....are people so up in arms because it's the beautiful Rhianna? Regular women get this all day every day, and nothing is ever said.
I do firmly believe that people should be allowed to defend themselves and if that's what happened here (which I doubht) then so be it. But the hypocracy of it being someone who is better looking than the average person or black is ludicrious and folks need to grow the hell up.
Cmon people. This is not about race!!! This is about a sorry excuse for a man beating up a woman. PERIOD. Doesn't matter if he is black, white, red, yellow or pink. She should stand up in court and testify against him. He needs to learn this is not acceptable. That doesn't appear to be happening. Too bad. He will probably pay someone off and get this case thrown out of court.
Bottom line he committed a crime and should be punished for his actions. One should never lay their hands upon another resulting in bodily injury no matter how anger they are. He needs to learn how to deal with his rage in a constructive manner. I hope the court can give him all the help he needs.
I've had ONE man hit me in my life (other than my dad), and the ass kickin' he got for that stupid mistake will be remembered by not only HIM, but everyone in Temple High School that particular day. He obviously thought that because I was relatively small, 5'5, 105, that I wouldn't be able to defend myself, WRONG! EVERY FEMALE needs to know how to defend herself, and she damn sure needs to do it if she feels she's in danger! BTW, the race comments are a crock of sh!t, I'm white and the idiot that hit me was white, that is, till I beat him black and blue, lol!
I love Lisa Hawkins comment. She sounds like she is down to earth. Good for you girl. You gave him just what he deserves, white, black, blue or green it don't give any man the right to beat on a woman.
give chris brown a break. she obviously deserved it. us black men are tired of you whitey's saying we are wrong to correct our women. if we didn't correct them, they would be as messed up as your white women.
Thanks Barbara. People were STILL talking about that day at our 10th reunion, lol.
Hey anon 1:25pm, IF you're really a black man, i'm sure that you don't speak for many of your race. I know a lot of black men that are nice, caring and would NEVER hit "their women". "Men" like you don't DESERVE a woman and one day you're gonna run up on the wrong lady, and she's gonna pack your lunch. Take my word for it!
ALL YOU PEOPLE NEED TO MIND YOUR DAMM BUSINESS. YOU DONT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED AND YOUR OPINIONS DONT MATTER. CHRIS BROWN DID SOMETHING WRONG, SO LET HIM GET DEALT WITH BY THE AUTHORITIES. YOU ACT LIKE HE MURDERED THE GIRL. SHE IS FINE. IF SHE WANTS TO GET BACK WITH HIM AND THEY BOTH GET THERAPY.. THATS THEIR BUSINESS.
Court of public opinion Lilli. That IS why they have a COMMENT SECTION.
People only do to you what you allow. I'm not making an excuse for him because you can't. A man beating on a woman is wrong! But she had to know that he had violent tendencies before he punch her. Maybe he was disrespectful to her or other women. Maybe he would treat the waitress like crap when they went out but it was something that tipped her off and she knew that it was in him to be violent. And when this happen we were all surprise but I'm sure she wasn't. Ladies if you have a man that don't respect you or other women LEAVE!!! Especially if it's his mother. If he's refering to you or other women as female-dogs LEAVE!!! If he hollers, screams, punches walls, or slam his fist down when you have a disagreement LEAVE!!! Before you end up like her.
D from Detroit: YOU ROCK and you're absolutely right. There's always a sign, no matter how small or insignificant, that will tip off a woman about the man she's with. Women, YOU ARE PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO ***NOT*** DEPEND ON SOMEONE ELSE TO SAVE OR PROTECT YOU. Get trained in self defense, pay attention to what's going on around you and always be prepared to defend yourself. One day, your life might depend on it!
I'm for the law period. Assault is Assault no matter who hit who. Live by the laws of the land and keep your hands to yourself. Now that's both sides of the story.
i wonder what she did to get such a beating. hopefully he didnt have to tell her twice.
