Well, this makes me uncomfy. Chris Brown spent last night locked up on felony assault charges after allegedly punching a dude who “photobombed” him, but at his hearing today the charges were reduced to a misdemeanor and he was released. That news should please some of his young female fans, who’ve been thronging outside the courthouse in support.
Via the Washington Post:
Crowds of media and onlookers gathered for the hearing. Arraignment hearings typically start at 1 p.m. and can run for hours. Visitors began lining up in front of Courtroom C-10 before 12:30 p.m. Onlookers took pictures of the lockup list posted on the wall outside the courtroom, showing his lockup number, the charge and his attorney’s name.
Brown’s mother and brother were stuck in line at one point; they were then escorted into a room.
Jasmine Woods, 22, of Northeast Washington and two of her female friends arrived at courthouse holding up posters that say “Free Chris Brown” in large red letters. “He was just protecting himself. He’s too cute to be in DC Jail.”
