Chris Brown is once again in trouble with the law. And he may actually go to prison for his actions this time. We’re getting ahead of ourselves a bit, but Brown was arrested in Paris yesterday on charges of rape and drug possession. Along with two members of his entourage, the polarizing singer was detained by French authorities after a woman who met Brown on January 15 claims she went back to the Mandarin Oriental Hotel with him after a night of clubbing. Speaking to Closer Magazine about the alleged incident, this unnamed victim offered up a number of grisly details about what transpired. Once insider the artists’s suite, the woman says she got up and went to the bathroom … only for Brown to follow her and “catch me by the right arm,” continuing: “He makes me enter a sort of dressing room. He closed the door … it lasted 25 – 30 minutes.” The woman described the reported rape as “brutal and violent” and said she was then “abused” by one of Brown’s friends and a bodyguard. A 24-year old model who Closer refers to by the pseudonym “Karima,” she says she waited two days to go to the police because she was frightened. However, she eventually decided to report what happened because she didn’t want Brown to “be able to do the same things to other girls.” In its latest update, TMZ refers to a source tight with Brown who counters that the singer was never alone with Karima and that approximately 20 people were present at all times, including Brown’s girlfriend, someone with bad taste named Amika Harris. As for the legal side of things: Following a custody period of two days, Paris prosecutors will have the option of releasing Brown and his associates — or opening a criminal investigation. If they go with the latter, the lawyers can ask the judge to either keep Brown in custody pending trial or let him go free with “obligations.” If Brown is released with obligations, he could be required to surrender his passport to French authorities and would remain in Paris pending said trial, which typically takes a year. As for the drug charge: A police source has told Radar Online that “a number of suspects were carrying cocaine” after cops arrived on the scene in response to a complaint. That’s all the information we have on that part of the matter. We aren’t here to say whether Brown committed this act or not, but he has a history of violence. Especially violence against women. In 2009, of course, he assaulted Rihanna , leaving his then-girlfriend with wounds all over her face. In 2016, he was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon after he allegedly pulled a gun on a woman named Baylee Curran. Neither Brown nor anyone from his legal team has commented on this latest incident. But IF it’s true that Chris Brown committed rape, would a single reader out there be surprised? Like, at all? UPDATE : Brown has very clearly now addressed the accusation via this photo: And this caption: I WANNA MAKE IT PERFECTLY CLEAR…… THIS IS FALSE AND A WHOLE LOT OF CAP!
