A judge took off Chris Brown's probation because of his October arrest in Washington, but the singer's not going to jail because he's already in a court-ordered residential rehab program. He appeared before a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge Monday, and must return for a hearing on February 10 that will decide if he'll serve jail time after his three months in rehab. Judge James Brandlin ordered Brown to check into a rehab program a month ago after he had been booted from another rehab facility a week earlier for smashing his mother's car window during a family session. "The clinical and medical team have witnessed very positive change in Mr. Brown since his psychotropic medications have been changed and he has been taken off medical marijuana," the program director said. "His ability to emotionally regulate himself has improved markedly." Brown was arrested on an assault charge in Washington on October 27. That case is why Brandlin ruled Monday that he was tentatively revoking Brown's probation for the Rihanna assault. He will decide in February if he will order Brown to complete his sentence in prison instead of probation.
If he wasn't rich, he'd be just another felon in the system.I think reducing the rate of re visitation and helping rehabilitation are more favorable than reveling in prison abuse. I understand that people want felons to experience what they did, but reducing re visitation and focusing on rehabilitation are more important. There is, however, the factor of deterrents, which makes the issue very complicated. Send the boy to jail already.
I agree. I think his money and his fame is working to his advantage. I don't agree with the court's decision.
