Chris Brown Investigated For Attempted Murder!

Filed under: Rihanna > Legal Matters > Chris Brown

ririri__opt11__opt11.jpg

Law enforcement sources have told E! News that the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office has requested more evidence to help prove the felony charges brought against Chris Brown as a result of the February 8th domestic violence incident involving him and Rihanna.

At the moment Brown is being investigated for domestic violence, assault resulting in great bodily injury, and attempted murder based on Brown's supposed threat to kill her and then strangling her until she passed out.

But since the only two people who know what really happened that night are Chris Brown and Rihanna, it will be difficult for Rihanna's team to slap Brown with "attempted murder" and the DA does not want to move forward with such a severe high profile case if the evidence is faulty.

    You stupid fuck, take a freaking government class… As if Rihanna's "team" would have ANYTHING to say about how the District Attorney, who prosecutes the case on behalf of the state would have anything to say about what charges were to be filed against numb nuts Chris Brown.
    Sometimes you are an absolute IDIOT!!!!

    What a bastard he turned out to be. He didn't even make a heartfelt apology to Rihanna.



  20. 20

    WOW! this is sad chris brown is known to be a nice dude not like the rest i Believe him. Rihanna knows that all this is a lie thats why she can't comment and she fled. the truth will come out but i refuse to judge lie the rest of the people when like it said at the end of the story the only two people who really know what happened are him and rihanna. i think it is funny how the LAPD is jumping down his case whenever other "high profile" celebs have admitted to beating there girlfriends in recent news look it up! and secondly if she is innocent then why did it say on TMZ which is more reliable then perez that the lapd is having a hard time getting her story now? Folks go to tmz for the truth!

    big mistake Chris… huge!

  22. 22

    ok, what about who made the real call to 911? was it rhianna or a bystander? if it was a bystander then they woldknow what happened b/c they would of had to relay info to cops.



  23. 23

    Re: Major Dude – LOL!!!!



  24. 24

    and personally I don't prefer perez view on the case anyway he is biased he loves rihanna so like i said TMZ for an unbiased and truthful approach!



  25. 25

    Okay… You basically just spewed all this REALLY bad stuff about Chris Brown, and then end it with "the only two who really know what happened are Rihanna and Chris"….. You do know that what you say on this site and totally ruin someone's career, right???

    I mean, I'm just as pissed as everyone at his cowardice and willlingness to harm Rihanna, but saying he attempted to murder her is going kinda far. I know your'e not saying it, but don't back it until you know the facts. I remember when this site wasn't all crazy, random gossip. What happened to the good ol' days?



  26. 26

    Re: the amazing one – What, you mean when he dresses in drag he's a woman better than RiRi?

    This is old news, you reported this before a while back. You must be aging rapidly, you're forgetful; or maybe you just have too much to do.

    "Choked until sh passed out" sure sounds like attempted murder, but don't forget the original OJ trail or the Michael Jackson fiasco. The right LA jury will not convict a famous black dude of anything. CHRIS WILL SKATE.



  34. 34

    ATTENTION ATTENTION : PLEASE READ

    IT WAS BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION WE HAVE OVERLOOKED SOMETHINGS INCLUDING PEREZ SOMEONE POSTED A VALID STATEMENT ON MTV.COM IF BROWN BEAT HER LIKE IT IS SAID THEN WHY ARE THEY ONLY LOOKING UP THREATS, WHY ARE THEY ONLY INVESTIGATING THREATS. THEY SAID THEY ARE SUPPOSEDLY DING IT THIS WAS BECAUSE THEY CAN'T PROVE HE PUT THE BRUISES THERE SO IF THEY CAN'T PROVE IT WHY SAY IT?



  35. 35

    dear jesus… attempted murder?
    is it rlly that serious?

  36. Xyzzy says – reply to this


    36

    Chris will cop a plea and probably won't even receive jail time if any charges are actually filed. Of course it'll take awhile for his professional career to rebound from this if it can.



  37. 37

    oh ye cas the law enforcements have nothing better to do then ring up E! news and tell them there investigating chris brown for attempted murder…please….it's probably a bunch of kids bored so they ring E! telling them this I mean it would be hilarious for them making up rumours and watching them spread….anyone can make up a rumour…i'm sorry but i don't believe it if its a "source" that tells E news…



  38. 38

    Rihanna is very beautiful and has a lot of star-like qualities, but maybe as a thank you to the public for their compassion and support towards her at this time, she could review her decision to endorse Cover Girl, a corporation which tests shamelessly on animals, needlessly putting innocent animals through lives of pain and suffering. Animal testing is not necessary - look to Revlon, they have ceased animal testing ; )



  39. 39

    This case is getting utterly ridiculous and stupid as time passes by because we still don't know the complete story beside he said she said crap. Lets say Chris did beat the crap out Rihanna and we all can agree that is wrong, but to convict somebody of murder? Give me a fucking break! You need a lot of evidence to land that sucker in. The DA is being very smart because one fuck up on this case could cost him big time. Either way I had enough of this Rihanna and Chris Brown nonsense already.



  40. 40

    BEATING THE CRAP OUT OF HER AND THEN CHOKING HER UNTIL SHE PASSES OUT THEN TAKING OFF ISN'T ENOUGH FOR ATTMPTED MURDER….CRAZY SHIT



  41. 41

    Wow if Chris Brown did choke her until she passed out then he really deserves to rot in jail. Obviously he did something bad to her since he fled the scene of the crime and she was beaten up and bloody. I just hope she presses charges against him and the he is in big trouble with the law, so that he'll think twice before he touches a woman in anger again. What a douche!



  42. 42

    his life is RUINED
    i want to see some danm pictures of rihanna !!



  43. 43

    We still do not have ALL the facts as Chris has said due to the legal system he can not speak out on the accusations, you see I stll believe in our legal system that we are innocent UNTIL proven guilty. This is a tragic situation for both of these young people, and domestic violence has many victims and many who are abusers were also abused. Those who are victims have been taughted to be so. Let's let the FACTS be presented and not react like children due to those like piggy Perez who gains the more attention he gets for his blog. I wish both of these people healing and peace.



  44. 44

    He strangled Rihanna until she passed out??? This is even worse then I thought. Poor Riri.



  45. 45

    ojala que lo envien a la carcel… en chile a estos tipos les llamamos "flaites"… miles de mujeres abusadas en el mundo… aun hay cretinos asi. Que tenga lo que merece!!! mono feo y flaite!!!

    Re: Major Dude – LOVE THAT



  47. 47

    bye bye, chris brown! your career is now…. down the toilet. oops.



  48. 48

    How is he going to beat this man up…she is twice his size…i don't buy this shit for a second and fat body you need to stop playing favorites, your fat ass knows nothing of what happened. rihanna is just a feminine looking man and probably punched him first.



  49. 49

    for everyone saying his career is over, uh no its definatly nott.
    thats so stupied like seriously everyone says im going to kill you! when there really mad at someone its just an expression,
    ugh like give him a fucking break!
    poor guy, he said himself don't believe anything anyone says or any blogs or whatever hes sorry and theres no words to express his apology, and thats coming from the ACTUAL source.



  50. 50

    If he did that hope they can prove it and he gets time in jail… this Chris, Rihanna thing is getting way too old! They are not saying a freaking thing so why should i care anymore… just totally over this 2!



  51. 51

    Oh, I see. So, if it were any "lesser" human being that did this, it would be a piece of cake to prosecute? And Justice for All, right?



  52. 52

    I doubt CB will do much time if any but I sure hope he gets psychological help to attempt to ensure that he won't be a repeat offender. He saw violence against his mother growing up and just like a child who is molested, when they grow up they tend to mimic what they experienced themselves. Get this kid help.

    You may all remember, I posted about this case several days ago, if not last week, where I called it, "Attempted Murder", having never heard anyone mention that, and not hearing or seeing any media reports to that fact. Rihanna was clearly left for dead. Whoever (or multiple parties) picked-up Chris Brown that night, assumed that Rihanna was dead…and left with Brown it tow. It is obvious, or someone would have stayed behind and gotten her to the hospital. This was not just attempted murder, but an attempt to cover it up after the fact, which is a conspiracy charge…and aiding and abetting. Time to seat a Grand Jury to hear this one, and to take the testimony of Brown's bodyguards and other employees, under oath. BTW, their fingerprints are sure to be on the abandoned car.



  54. 54

    E! got one thing wrong. They said there's only two witnesses, Rihanna and Chris Brown, in terms of what happened. Wrong. The police have testimony from the person who called 911. This person heard Chris yelling, "I'll kill you!" and the 911 operator heard Rihanna screaming. Police took photographs of her injuries right there on the scene. So they would know if she was choked. So would the ER. Rihanna already told the police/ER she blacked out because he was choking her. What else do they need to build a case for criminal assault. I think they will do a deal. They will drop the attempted murder charge if he pleads guilty to assault. He will do about 6 months in jail and be on probation with some classes for anger management or something. They are not going to let him walk. He has issues, and I think they learned their lesson with OJ. Domestic battery only gets worse over time and someone ends up dead. Rihanna got a wake up call. He put her in the hospital and caused her to miss work. Maybe he will get better. But it's obvious the two of them together are toxic. Time to move on. Chris Brown paying for his actions isn't about Rihanna. It's about Chris. He's at a crossroads. He can get help and get better, or he can deny responsibility and get worse and repeat the behavior.



  55. 55

    This story is such bullshit, and you shouldnt be reporting these lies. Come on people if he choked her unconsious he would NOT have been charged with criminal threats!! His charge would have been attempted murder, as soon as she told the police that, that would have been his charge. They wouldnt wait until 3 weeks later to go and prove it and then charge him with it. The strongest charge they had on him was the threats so thats why he was booked on that. If they had attempted murder he probably would have had a highter bail or no bail at all…..So stop the bullshit…..



  56. 56

    Re: datswhatsup – Sorry, you're wrong. There are 2 different legal systems in America. One for us commoners, and another one for celebrities. Chris will skate thru this. At the very least, he will get a very light punishment, if any at all.



  57. 57

    Re: Hmmmm – REally, are Rhianna's people the DA's office now? I can't believe you got into college never mind graduate from it. 'Rhianna's people' can bring a civil suit against chris brown, but not a criminal case. If you don't know the government, as least look at the Simpson trials.

    Re: justtfax – #59 Precisely my point, if you READ my post I said "As if Rihanna's "team" would have ANYTHING to say about how the District Attorney, who prosecutes the case on behalf of the state…."
    Her team will have nothing to say about it, the DA makes the decision on what charges to file, not Rihanna's "team".
    Play nice or I'll take off the gloves.



  69. 69

    Why the fuck did Chris do that??
    I mean he had so many sponsors and i nice girlfriend….
    Now he lost his sponsors, obviously lost his sponsors….
    and hes being charged for domestic violence!

    Nice going, Chris! :(

    ♥ Gossip Girl



  70. 70

    thats bullshit.
    "im gonna kill you" or "ill kill you" has become so overused and desensified that it doesnt even mean that anymore.
    who gives a fuck.
    theyre prolly just making him look worse because she probably instigated him.

    perez, get over her.
    its not like shes your sister or your bff.
    your prolly so obsessed with her cuz in reality you want in her pants.



  71. 71

    haha he's going to make a nice wifey in jail



  72. 72

    TRUQUEEN89….if you dont like perez…then why have you posted 3 comments on this article???

    your either working for tmz….or you want to get knocked up by chris brown…so you have somehow totally justified what he has done in your mind
    like all of those hoe's that keep leaving him support comments on his myspace

    oh, and FROM WHAT I HAVE HEARD tmz hasn't said anything different



  73. 73

    Maybe chris brown went insane because rihanna want to leave him or something. Rihanna is so beautiful and she deserve soo much better.



  74. 74

    Throw the Book at that COWARD! This by the looks and reports of it went way beyond the line.Put him in jail,let those boys at him. NO MERCY!



  75. 75

    he already feels sorry for beating her so how can they say they need more information. they better not give him some kind of special treatment and punish him!!



  76. 76

    Rihanna don't worry, this just makes people love you more. You can do it!



  77. 77

    Re: Yellow Peeps

    You are absolutely right . You've nailed how this will play out. It is so sad.
    The best we can hope for is a little prison justice. But he'll never see general population; he'll get star treatment there too.



  78. 78

    I am insane! I need lithium to stay alive. I am a freak who stalks people on this site! Muahahahahaha….I am a scary ass loser who likes to knit!



  79. 79

    rihanna is a fukin bitch i hate her so much after this!!

    shame he never hit her hard enough, or got someone else to do it

    will he fuck get done for attempted murder, this site chats some proper shit!!



  80. 80

    here's the only problem with the above statement…under california law chris brown CAN'T be charged with domestic violence. under the law it says that in order for it to be a domesic violence issue the people need to be married, living together, former spouses or share a child. Chris Brown still has his own apt, so he can't be charged under the definition of the law



  81. 81

    screw Brown.
    Rihanna's picture from TMZ proves he wasn't stopping anytime soon!
    Of course he could have easily killed her, this is awful that she looks that bad.
    I am by no means condoning abuse, but if he hit her once and she had a welt or black & blue eye, I'd want to see him in jail.
    But the fact that he has done it before leaving bruises on her & now he beat her face and who knows where else he hit her…that he did such damage to her.
    He needs to fry.
    And if he said he was going to "kill her"
    By the look of the picture, whatever stopped him………..we're lucky it stopped him!

    Well, he needs to be held accountable b/4 he does it to someone else! They ALWAYS do… (not speaking out of my ass, but from experience).



  83. 83

    OHH PLEASE Perez…. now it's attempted murder? Stop adding fuel to the fire! This was a fight between lovers that can't keep their hands to themselves. So how come Mike Tyson was not investigated for "ATTEMPTED MURDER" when he beat the shit out of Robin? Now that's attempted murder, he was a heavy weight fighter. Please Perez stop being one-sided and write (I mean copy/ paste) the truth.



  84. 84

    Re: Major Dude – You're the bomb!



  85. 85

    Yeah, I'm not sure how they can put together the case as "attempted murder", they gotta have their ducks lined up so it's not faulty… even though Chris Brown clearly threatened to kill her (if he indeed strangled her).



  86. 86

    Re: YODA SPEAKS – I understand that whole "innocent until proven guilty" clause, but I mean… he turned himself in for it. That's evidence enough he did it, right? No one is going to go to a police station and turn themselves in for something they actually did not do.

    Re: lilmousie – #80 I'm afraid you are wrong, you need to read section 6210 of the California Family Code. It is the definition that governs the domestic violence code and CLEARLY states "a dating relationship". The state clearly has jurisdiction in this case.

  95. 95

    personally like everyone else said only they know what happened that night but maybe Rihanna Provoked it!!!! but still that's not a reason for chris to hurt her in that way. i'm still gonna listen to his music but that dosen't mean that i support him i don't i would never let a guy lay a hand on me n if dose happen i will make the ni99a pay ;}



  96. 96
