Even though the shooting that occurred a couple of nights ago had very little to do with Chris Brown, his probation officer feels differently as he along with the Los Angeles prosecutor has petitioned the court to revoke his probation stemming from the shooting incident.
Chris Brown appeared at with his attorney Mark Geragos to hear probable cause evidence that will be decided by a judge at a later date to determine if he will in fact be sent to prison. This has to be very disappointing to the singer since he has by all accounts been keeping his act together.
TMZ is reporting the following:
Chris showed up for a progress report Thursday, when the judge told him the probation report presented multiple problems. First, the report mentions the shooting last Sunday in San Jose when Chris was on stage. Five people were injured.
The judge also said the probation report expressed concern over another shooting at 1OAK during VMA weekend last August. Again, Chris was on stage and several people were shot, including Suge Knight.
And the judge said Chris left the county for San Jose without getting the court’s permission, which is a violation of his probation.
As for why the shootings are an issue, they were raised in the probation report. The judge noted so far there’s no evidence Chris was criminally involved, but the probation officer says, “There is also concern that when he performs or attends at some of his public events, people will get shot or seriously injured.”
The probation officer also notes Chris has been arrested twice while on probation — once for assault in DC and also for throwing a rock at his mom’s car in rehab. And the officer notes Chris was “making comments about knives and guns during a group [rehab] meeting.”
The presiding judge allowed CB to remain free on his own recognizance until his next hearing which is scheduled for March 20.
Good luck homie!
