The LA prosecutor’s office has decided to charge singer Chris Brown with 2 felonies on the grounds that he allegedly assaulted his girlfriend Rihanna in the early hours of February 8 just hours before the both of them were to perform at the Grammy Awards later that night. Despite the presumed fact that Rihanna has decided to reconcile with her alleged attacker, the prosecutor’s office has decided to move forward with their case against him. Here is a photo of Brown making his way out of a recording studio here in LA at around 5AM this morning and the deets about the criminal charges he is now facing:

Singer Chris Brown was charged on Thursday with felony assault and making a criminal threat after an alleged attack on his girlfriend, the singer Rihanna. Brown, 19, will appear in court on Thursday, the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office said. He could face up to four years in prison if convicted of the two felonies. Prosecutors said he attacked Rihanna the night before the Grammy Awards last month. Rihanna, 21, whose real name is Robyn Fenty, was referred to in the official complaint as “Robyn F.” She had not previously been identified by authorities as the victim. The charges were filed a week after Brown and Rihanna, who dated for about a year, were reported by celebrity magazines to have reconciled.

I understand the LA District Attorney felt he had enough evidence to charge Brown with these crimes even taking into consideration that Rihanna may choose to NOT testify against him. According to a local FOX affiliate report here in SoCal, a detective’s notes from the time of the incident contain very damaging information against Chris Brown and may be part of the prosecutor’s case against him. After the jump, find out what is reportedly recorded in this detective’s field notes …

A detective’s notes from the scene of the alleged Rihanna assault reportedly reveal disturbing details about what happened between the singer and her boyfriend Chris Brown in the early hours of Feb. 8. According to FOX 11 in Los Angeles, which claims to have obtained the notes from a search warrant in the case, Rihanna, 21, read a lengthy text message from a woman on Brown’s phone, which led to an argument. Brown – who has a standing court date Thursday – allegedly tried to force his girlfriend out of the Lamborghini, and hit her head against the passenger window. Brown, 19, then punched the singer while still driving, according to the detective’s notes, and blood filled Rihanna’s mouth. He allegedly told her, “I’m going to beat the —- out of you when we get home.” Rihanna called her assistant and left a message saying, “I am on my way home. Make sure the cops are there when I get there.” The police notes say that prompted Brown to reply: “You just did the stupidest thing ever. I’m going to kill you.” The report also says that Brown bit Rihanna and put her in a headlock, and that she almost lost consciousness.

If this report about these notes is true or even close to true, the District Attorney must have other damaging evidence against Chris Brown … which is surely why these charges have been leveled against him. The mention of blood seems to corroborate those photos we saw this week that were reportedly shot inside Chris‘s rented car. It remains to be seen if a plea bargain can be worked out between Brown and the prosecutor’s office but I’m sure there will be more to come from this ever-evolving incident.
