Chris Brown Cops A Plea

2008 BET Awards

Chris Brown copped a plea today and managed to avoid jail time for the now infamous Feb. 8 altercation between Brown and Rihanna.

Brown pleaded guilty to felony assault and was put on five years’ probation and ordered to enroll in an anti-domestic violence program. He must perform 180 days of community service and must have all his travel vetted by a probation officer.

The announcement came as Rihanna waited in a private area of the criminal courts building. Rihanna was prepared to lay out her version of what happened following a Grammy Awards pre-party, if she were called to the stand.

But her testimony ultimately wasn’t required.

The judge told Brown, “I think it’s commendable you took responsibility for your conduct”

And to that I say – it’s about time!!
