Chris Brown repeatedly beat, bit Rihanna, report says

Singer Chris Brown is expected in court today as new details emerge about allegations that he assaulted his girlfriend, pop star Rihanna.

Fox 11 News obtained a search warrant in which an LAPD officer alleged that Brown repeatedly beat and bit Rihanna during a fight  the night before last month's Grammy Awards.

According to the search warrant, Rihanna and Brown were driving when she read him a text message. Brown allegedly tried to force Rihanna out of the car, but her seat belt kept her inside the vehicle. Brown then allegedly punched her several times while he was driving, the search warrant said.

Rihanna's blood splattered all over the interior of the car, according to the document quoted by Fox 11.

 

At some point, Rihanna called an assistant and told her to call police. But Brown allegedly continued to attack, biting her ear and fingers. At one point, according to the document, Brown threatened to kill Rihanna.

Brown was arrested Feb. 8 on suspicion of criminal threats and is free on $50,000 bail. Prosecutors have not charged him, but he must return to court as part of his bail release. Gibbons declined to say when or if he would be charged.

The arrest was made after Los Angeles Police Department officers responded to a 911 call Feb. 8 reporting an assault and found a woman visibly beaten and bruised on a Hancock Park street next to Brown’s rented Lamborghini. Rihanna, who has never been identified publicly by police, was treated after the incident, a police source said.

Prosecutors could file charges, decline the case or opt to let Brown remain free while they take more time to investigate the incident. In the aftermath, Brown, 19, issued a public apology. A photo of 21-year-old Robyn Rihanna Fenty’s battered, scratched face was leaked to the gossip website TMZ.com.

Jeez, if this is all true and Rihanna has taken him back, she is just prolonging her misery. CB is famous with many women chasing him, i'm sure it's very possible he could and would cheat on her...and visa versa maybe...but who knows. If you cheat once, your always a cheater, if you abuse your girlfriend once, you'll always do it!! No matter what nice things he has to say after the fact...CB is just looking out for himself and his career...of course he is going to beg for her forgiveness...its sad she caved so quickly...hope he doesn't hurt her again.

[kv]

and after all that, she is now back with him...great, just great...

[Angie]

I hope Chris "beat em down" Brown gets the jail time he deserves. It is unfortunate that Rihanna has taken him back, but not unusual for a DV victim to forgive what should be unforgivable.

[ballr]

poor girl, she must be so mixed up and confused. love is not getting your head bashed in, hopefully she will figure this out before its to late. i hope cb gets the help that he needs, he is young enough to turn it around, we have to remember they are both very young with lots of money, you are going to do some very stupid things, he has to understand that you never,ever put your hands on a woman!

[Rachell Laboe]

If he took to biting, I have to think she had quite a grip on him. I'm a woman and a mother of both a son and a daughter and I teach my son not to hit girls but I enforce it on my daughter that she must keep her hands to herself! I am pretty sure Rihanna wasn't so innocent in the assault and let's give them both a chance to turn things around for themselves. Perhaps he should steer clear of her, it is obvious not good for either of them...not just her.

[EyeHeartLA]

The minute that I read that Rhianna goes back to Chris Brown and "reconciles" is the minute I lose all respect for her!

I hope she remains a strong woman, and presses charges against this coward!

This is a real delicate situation. The bottom-line is that there are so many reports that you just don’t know what to even think. It is obvious that something happen that night that evolved violence e it is unfortunate that this happen. If in fact he did do this to her in that extent, I really hope she know what she is doing taking him back. People do change… however; I can’t say that they change in 3 weeks. I pray for them.

[Joe]

If Foxnews 11 says something it must be true...WOW. There are so many speculations about this incident. People are jumping conclusions from left to right. No one knows what really happend.
I just think it's another episode of Ashton Kutcher where everyone is being punked.

It is too bad that she has taken him back. How long must the oppression of women go on? The to top it off, her dad is ok with the fact that she is taking him back. Man, if I was her dad... I just can't stand people who beat up on women. It is one of the lowest things a man can do, and it just exposes some severe insecurities on the part of the man.

[Sandy]

Good grief girl, why on earth would you return back to this man that even threatened to kill you. YOU BOTH HAVE PROBLEMS in that case. I agree, once you have been beaten it will happen again. Once you have been cheated upon, it too will happen again.
What part of this strange situation do you not understand. I guess some people like to be beaten up and violated.
You have or least had a great future and was admired. This strange act to return to Chris, is a turnoff for me.
I will not promote your future by bying you cd's anymore.

[mark]

u never kno, she probably doing all this forgiveness and marriage to get revenge in.

[larry]

Chris+Rihanna=The best love story.

FOOLS NEVER LEARN. THEY DESERVE EACH OTHER.

[Chunkdog]

Taken at face value, why haven't charges been brought against Brown?

[jimmyjacks]

I sincerely hope this does not lead to another OJ Simpson case in the future.

CB needs to be arrested and serve hard time in prison for his crime.

However given the lawyer he has hired he will most likely spend whatever money it takes to keep him out on the streets.

Justice would be served if CB was locked up and Bubba Jones and friends in lockdown did a beat down on CB to give him a taste of his own sweet medicine.

Shes an idiot she should of got out of the car and went to a safe place so they both could calm down and think. That would of save both of them alotta of trouble but she had to stay in the car.i am a really big fan of chris browns music and he is so entertaining. I am really dissapointed that he might go to jail.

[Felicia]

I pray for both kids. At the end of the day, none of us knows what happened except them. As a society, we are quick to pick up a gun or lay hands on one another instead of walking away or figuring out a better means of handling life.

As for always...anyone can change if they are sorry and wish to. Jenna, no disrespect, but you are probably young, which is why you say this. Can you say that you have never done things in your past that are regrettable and that you would not take back? Never do again? None of us can.

I wish them both the best, be that together or apart. At the end of the day, it is her heart that is broken/hurt, etc. not ours. It is just too bad that she was humiliated by this entire affair. She should have been given the chance to sort this out with her family/friends...those who TRULY love her versus the media.

[c.k.]

I have lost all respect for Kanye (who I really liked) and others who have welcomed Chris Brown back into the fold and haven't held him responsible for these monstrous acts. They should be shunning him and speaking out against violence against women. They're sending a message that 'hey, it's okay to viciously attack a woman, you can make it up to her later, we won't hold it against you!' Well, I hold it against him, and them too for acting like it's no big deal.

[Sujey]

Why is Rihanna forgiving CB??? He put hands on her!!!! Doesn't she know how many people have been killed due to DV? I'm a Case Worker and have dealt with a lot of DV clients and they either go back with their partner because they are in "love" or they move forward with the emotional help and support of a professional. They both need therapy! Do they even know the meaning of love is???? I'm disappointed in Rihanna taking him back, he did once and he will do it again. She needs to take time to think of herself and let that guy go!

[Murika]

I hope and pray that the DA prosecutes Mr. Brown to the full extent of the law and send a message to female beating men that be it the woman files charges or not they will be prosecuted. Make an example of Mr. Brown, show all men that regardless of your age, financial, or public status you will be punish to the max. Saying "I'm sorry" after you are caught won't do!

As for Rihanna, I hope she gets counseling. By her excusing this behavior is giving him permission to do it again; and as stated in reports his beatings have gotten worse, and they will continue until the police stop him or his act of violence against her end in death.

[AH]

Ha this joker is a regular Mike Tyson. She's lucky she still has two ears!

[BB]

If this article is true,. CB beat her like a Pimp beats his whores !!
Where are all the " BLACK MEDIA " at concerned about it's BLACK WOMEN BEING VICTIMIZED !!

[Pete]

Who cares? Why does the public care so much about two no talent performers? If this was your average domestic violence case, it wouldn't even have made the news...

No wonder why this country is circling the drain, such a shallow and superficial society...

[A concern woman]

If Rihanna returns to this relationship, she has titled herself as an insecure person. CB is a disturb mix up kid with hidden emotional problems. Music or no music, he needs help. You can't tolerate this behavior. People don't get it, until this type of negative behavior happens to their mother, daughter or love one.Because of money, he probably won't spend a day in jail. he'll fine god, who was never lost and do an academy award pity party to society.

[OCBlauski]

Yeah, a real tough guy. Way to go, stud, you can beat up on a helpless women. Time for jail, loser!
