Chris Brown Pleads Guilty to Felony Assault

Posted by David Schmader on Mon, Jun 22, 2009 at 2:54 PM

TMZ has the story so far:

He won't do jail time, but he will spend 6 months doing things like road cleanup. He's also been ordered to stay 50 yards clear of Rihanna.

He'll spend 180 days doing community labor (8 hours a day—1440 hours total)—which is, in effect, hard labor. He'll do his service in Virginia which is where Brown lives...

He gets 5 years probation for FELONY assault. He'll get supervised probation. He'll have to come back to court every three months.

He must enroll in a domestic violence counseling program.

This is interesting ... the judge said if Brown and Rihanna are at the same public events, the 50-yard stay away turns into 10 yards. The stay away order lasts 5 years.

Brown is now a convicted felon and loses the right to vote or carry a gun....If Brown violates probation, he could get up to 4 years in prison.
