Chris Brown is caught between a rock and a hard place: risk killing his career by admitting he’s abused Rihanna, or risk killing his career by trying to justify that abuse. According to Life & Style Magazine, he’s leaning towards the latter:
Chris is already building his case. He’s saying she threw a phone at him, then hit him in the head and basically just lost it. He’s saying she attacked him.
Someone might want to tell Chris that “defense” implies that you were protecting yourself, not that your girlfriend got you so mad that you choked, hit and scratched her. “Unless there’s some indication that she was enraged to the point that she physically threatened him, I think he’d have a tough time with that defense,” said attorney Darren Kavinoky.
Of course, if Rihanna doesn’t press charges, Brown may never have to bust out this pathetic excuse for brutalizing a woman. “We do not have enough evidence and there have been no charges filed on the Chris Brown case,” said a spokeperson for the LA District Attorney when explaining the delay in trying Brown. “If the state gathers up enough evidence, we will press charges with or without her testifying. It is not up to the victim. She will not have to show up during the arraignment.”
