Media outlets are camped out in front of the LA Superior Court right now (TMZ has a live feed HERE) waiting for the arrival of Chris Brown for his arraignment on the 2 felony charges that are being leveled against him. As a result of this latest courtroom development, new documents have been made available to the press that offer grim new details from the fateful night that Brown allegedly assaulted girlfriend Rihanna:
A warrant for phone records has been made available (and was mentioned earlier today in THIS post) and includes one police detective’s account of what went down on February 8 according to Rihanna herself. Earlier today we read some of the account but the warrant (which can be downloaded HERE) contains Rihanna‘s account of the alleged assault in full. After the jump, if you are so inclined, read my full transcription of what was reported to the police that night — BE WARNED, it contains some very grim details of what Rihanna alleged happened to her on that night …
To reiterate, the following transcription is the account of the incident as told by Rihanna to police on the night of the alleged attack. The account is included in THIS warrant for phone records that has been made available to the press:
Christopher Brown and Robyn F. have been involved in a dating relationship for approximately one and a half years. On Sunday February 8.2009 at 00:25 hours, Brown was driving a vehicle with Robyn F. as the front passenger on an unknown street in Los Angeles. Robyn F. picked up Brown’s cellular telephone and observed a three page text message from a woman who Brown had a previous sexual relationship with. A verbal argument ensued and Brown pulled the vehicle over on an unknown street, reached over Robyn F. with his right hand, opened the car door and attempted to force her out. Brown was unable to force Robyn F. out of the vehicle because she was wearing a seat belt. When he could not force her to exit, he took his right hand and shoved her head against the passenger window of the vehicle causing an approximate one inch raised circular contusion. Robyn F. turned to face Brown and he punched her in the left eye with his right hand. He then drove away in the vehicle and continued to punch her in the face with his right hand while steering the vehicle with his left hand. The assault caused Robin F’s. mouth to fill with blood and blood to splatter all over her clothing and the interior of the vehicle.
Brown looked at Robyn F. and stated, “I’m going to beat the shit out of you when we get home! You wait and see!” Robyn F. picked up her cellular telephone and called her personal assistant Jennifer Rosales at (818) ***-****. Rosales did not answer the telephone but while her voicemail greeting was playing, Robyn F. pretended to talk to her and stated, “I’m on my way home. Make sure the cops are there when I get there.” (This statement was made while the greeting was playing and was not captured as a message). After Robyn F. faked the call, Brown looked at her and stated, “You just did the stupidest thing ever! Now I’m really going to kill you!” Brown resumed punching Robyn F. and she interlocked her fingers behind her head and brought her elbows forward to protect her face. She then bent over at the waist, placing her elbows and face near her lap in attempt to protect her face and head from the barrage of punches being levied upon her by Brown. Brown continued to punch Robyn F. on her left arm and hand causing her to suffer a contusion on her left triceps that was approximately two inches in diameter and numerous contusions on her left hand. Robyn F. then attempted to send a text message to her other personal assistant, Melissa Ford. Brown snatched the cellular telephone out of her hand and threw it out of the window onto an unknown street.
Brown continued driving and Robyn F. observed his cellular telephone sitting in his lap. She picked up the cellular telephone with her left hand and before she could make a call he placed her in a head lock with his right hand and continued to drive the vehicle with his left hand. Brown pulled Robyn F. close to him and bit her on her left ear. She was able to feel the vehicle swerving from right to left as Brown sped away. He stopped the vehicle in front of 333 North **** Street and Robyn F. turned off the car, removed the key from the ignition and sat on it. Brown did not know what she did with the key and began punching her in the face and arms. He then placed her in a head lock positioning the front of her throat between his bicep and forearm. Brown began applying pressure to Robyn F’s. left and right carotid arteries causing her to be unable to breathe and she began to lose consciousness. She reached up with her left hand and began attempting to gouge his eyes in an attempt to free herself. Brown bit her left ring and middle fingers and then released her. While Brown continued to punch her, she turned around and placed her back against the passenger door. She brought her knees to her chest, placed her feet against Brown’s body and began punching him away. Brown continued to punch her on the legs and feet causing several contusions. Robyn F. began screaming for help and Brown exited the vehicle and walked away. A resident in the neighborhood heard Robyn F’s. plea for help and called 911, causing a police response. An investigation was conducted and Robyn F. was issued a Domestic Violence Emergency Protective Order (EPO).
The warrant in question is for phone records to help police corroborate the information that Rihanna gave to them at the time of the assault. I am just SHOCKED at what she claims he did to her. Honestly, I find it very easy to believe her. Whether or not she will remain true to what she told police at the time is another matter. This detailed account of her assault is so incredibly sad … and that sadness is compounded by the fact that she’s apparently already willing to reconcile with him. I am so happy that the prosecutor’s office is moving forward with the case. If these allegations are true, Chris Brown deserves to be locked up for a long time. Again … I’m just … stunned.
Let’s see what Chris Brown’s version says before everyone jumps to conclusions about him being the scum of the Earth. Rihanna’s version sounds a little one-sided – not to say it is not true – but I suspect there was probably more to the story (unless Brown is really just a psycho). If you read the document, you’ll see that Brown essentially continued punching Rihanna for the entire time (if that were true she would still be in hospital right now), including while driving with one hand and while she managed to use the phone and text people. Still, even if just half of that were true he deserves to go to prison, and Rihanna’s an idiot for sticking with him.
im shocked by what cb did, no one has the right to treat anybody like that and whilst id hoped rihanna would nener get back with him no one should judge her because unless you are in the middle of that situation you cant know how she feels or why she feels that way…the best we could do is support her and all those other women who are suffering at the hands of nen like fuckin brown
If he did all those things like punching so many times the the girl would have been in the hospital for months with broken bones and stuff like that. So this is fake. That doesn’t mean the aggression isn’t real but not on the level described in this article.
He disgusts me.
I hope the mutha fucka burns in hell
Jab, what exactly are you hoping to read in Chris Brown’s version of what happened that night? Hmm? That she punched herself? That she started the fight? Because as far I can tell, her story corroborates with her injuries and CB hasn’t made an attempt to give his side of the story, in fact he’s only issued a weak apology for this whole ordeal. Meaning he did do it.
shit man
he prolly brain damaged her with all that beating
maybe that’s why she’s still with him
poor babe… she needs to leave him asap
stupid bastard needs to learn his lesson
an apology is nothing
I do believe every word of this however I understand the comment about ” if he punched her that many times she would be in the hospital” my guess is the punches weren’t that hard most times considering he was driving a car.I really hope he pays, I think she needs a lot of help since she took him back :(
I’m torn on this..while I completely agree that Chris is in the wrong and it’s bullshizz that he would do this. BUT it’s really annoying that everyone would turn a blind eye to how RiRi was acting… we’ve all been there at 20-21 years old and just wanted to piss of your boyfriend. We’ve all read that it started b/c she was prying about a text message. GIRL if you don’t want to know…don’t go through his damn phone!! I’m willing to bet my life she was completely being a bitch and bratty about the text. The boy has anger management issues and hits her. I will also bet she continued talking shit while he hit her. Then of all things, when you’re getting your ass beat WHY would you try and piss them off more by PRETENDING to have somone call the police…what in your right mind would tell you that was a good idea? OBVS. it’s only going to provoke. THEN she gets the keys and sits on them??!! When the car was stopped!!?? Get the eff OUT! Don’t be a brat and sit on the keys. Seriously, obviously Chris is to blame for the physical stuff that went down, but Rihanna is NOT innoccent in all of it. She wasn’t making wise decisions, and she was being a bratty 20 year old girl. Please let me clarify that I am NOT saying she deserved it or that chris had any right putting his hands on her.
@ Erica – Who gives a flying fuck if she is the brattiest drama queen bitch. You “bet” she continued to talk shit… ugh, I’m so disgusted I don’t even know what else to say.
@ erica- “Please let me clarify that I am NOT saying she deserved it or that chris had any right putting his hands on her.”
so what are you saying? that she made it worse by speaking? how can you even justify that? maybe he should’ve stuck with words like she did. it’s disgusting for you to even say that.
argh. i really don’t get it. in the beginning i was raelly on the fence with these two. i honestly thought that people were jumping to conclusions, and that while i TOTALLY agree that no one has a right to touch another person… maaaybe just maybe, rihanna was either ‘asking for it’ or had faked it in one way or another. coz you don’t know what REALLY happened………. THEN when news spread that the two of them were back together i felt like it just reinforced that idea. but NOW after reading thatttt….. oh man. it really doesn’t make any sense whatsoever. i can’t even look at chris brown the same way anymore. hes disgusting. and shes stupid for even considering being with him again after that.
He should be put in jail for this. Prove a point to all the kids and adults that like him and teach men AND women that this kind of thing is not okay. use him as an example for the rest of the world, and if its turns out that she is lying, use her for an example because there are to many court cases that people lie and get away with it and then there are the ones that they think you are lying but you are not and someone gets wrongfully charged.
First, Chris Brown is a douche as my name states, for hitting women. Second, he was heard saying it was all good when one of his body guards asked him what he thought about his hearing, and showed no sign of remorse for what he did. I hope he does get charged for what he did and gets the 56 months of jail time.
As for Rhianna, Are you the stupidest dumbass ever? He beats the hell out of you, and you forgive him? Not to mention this isn’t the first time he beat the shit out of you? Woman beater and dumbass woman…seems like a good match for me! One likes to beat women, the other likes being beat.
It makes me sick to my stomach to read what she went through that night. Even more so, to know that after all of that she could forgive him and take him back. I just don’t get it. From what I read I really doubt this is the first time he’s done this, and I know it won’t be the last. Makes me angry to think that other girls facing a similar situation of domestic violence could be reading this and thinking “well if she could forgive him, I guess I could too”. Ugh, I’m so disgusted by both of them.
While I’m totally appalled to read Rhianna’s account of what happened that night, I’m almost just as appalled to read the reactions that some people have had to the situation. It literally makes me sick to read people’s comments that she deserved it if she’s going back to it or that she’s stupid to go back, etc. Attitudes like this allow abusive behaviors to continue. For everyone saying that she is a disgrace to all of her fans and to all women who will now think that it is okay to go back to an abusive partner… your words are just as hurtful. Most likely a person who is an abusive intimate relationship is going to return to that relationship or has returned to that relationship regardless of what Rhianna chooses to do… however reading comments such as these will most likely make them feel ashamed for doing so and continue to lower their self esteem which does not give them the motivation to get out of the abuse.
Intimate partner violence is NOT a clear cut situation. It is not as simple as ‘my partner abuses me, I’m going to leave” It’s horrible, but it is the truth. Many people stay because they do not have the financial resources to leave, for Rhianna this probably isn’t true but that does not make it any easier to leave. Abusers are controlling and manipulative. They will isolate their partner from their friends and family and make it very very difficult to leave. A lot of the time they will appear like the nicest person to people outside of the relationship. And they will shower the person with apologies and gifts and promises to never do it again. It’s a cycle and it’s very very difficult to break out of.
Also, it may very well be Rhianna’s safest option at the moment to remain in the relationship. The most dangerous point in an abusive relationship is when a person decides to leave because the abuser is losing their control. The majority of intimate partner homicides happen when the person being abused decides to leave. The same goes for why Rhianna might not have fought back while they were in the car… it’s a survival tactic. Often not reacting is the way to incur the least amount of harm… the same reason why animals will play dead. It’s not fight or flight… it’s really fight, flight or freeze.
What Rhianna needs right now is support and encouragement. She needs to hear that it is not her fault and that she is a strong woman. Only she can make the decision to leave this relationship and only when she is ready.
u can take the low life out of the ghetto but he still remains a lowlife. and i know some will take offense to this but u can go screw yourselves. if that dumb bitch goes back to the P.O.S. she DESERVES whatever happens to her. including being beaten to death or otherwise.
and as far as it being her fault the 1st time no. but anytime after she is just as much at fault. im not condoning what he did by any means i think he should be put in a stockade and beat himself but she is making a conscious choice to go back to someone who beat her just like he made the conscious choice to do it. i dont care how much in love she thinks she is she is making the choice to go back to a fucking coward that she personally knows beats women.
