I feel so sorry for Chris Brown, a good talent just sitting in jail, it's just a pity! Hoping he comes out from this a better person and gets his act well, though some fans can make celebrities go wild.
On Monday, A Superior Court judge Washighton D.C denied attorneys representing Chris Brown to dismiss a misdemeanour assault case filed against the R&B singer, the judge ruled that the entertainer and his bodyguard can have separate trials.
Via Washington Post reports:
The 24-year-old Grammy winner and his bodyguard, Christopher Hollosy, 35, were each charged with one count of misdemeanour assault after an October altercation with a fan outside the W Hotel in downtown Washington.
Brown’s attorneys have said he is innocent and that he and Hollosy were trying to protect Brown and his property. Neither Brown nor Hollosy was in court Monday. Brown, according to a spokesman at the U.S. Marshals Service, was expected to arrive in Washington late Monday.
Brown is in marshalls’ custody after a District judge ordered him extradited to Washington last week. Upon Brown’s arrival, a marshals service spokesman said the entertainer will be held in a Washington-area jail until his trial.
Brown is in custody after a California judge ordered him locked up for allegedly making threats about using guns while in an anger-management rehabilitation centre last month. He had been ordered to the inpatient facility as part of his plea deal in connection with his 2009 conviction for assaulting his then-girlfriend, pop star Rihanna.
He was scheduled to remain in the jail until April 23. Both men face a maximum of six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. But if Brown is convicted, he also faces as much as additional four years in jail in California as a result of violating the terms of his probation in the Rihanna case, his attorney, Mark J. Geragos said.
