Chris Brown Abused Rihanna Before

Chris Brown Abused Rihanna Before

How sad. The more details that come out about this whole thing, the more upsetting it really is.

Rihanna told police that this wasn't an isolated incident. Chris Brown had been abusive before.

According to the police report, she told cops this was not the first
time Brown hit her.
She referred to it as an ongoing and escalating
abusive relationship.

And in related news, Chris will probably not be prosecuted for a criminal  threats charge.

We're told the criminal threats charge is based on that one statement [threatening to kills her] Brown allegedly made. As one law enforcement source told us, "It's
kinda weak, and the D.A. is not going to prosecute a high profile case
like this unless it's solid." That's why it was kicked back for further
investigation.

Given the brutal nature of the attack, which
the photos clearly show -- contusions on the face, swollen eyes, cut
lip, bloody nose, bite marks on fingers and arm -- a felony domestic
battery charge is virtually a done deal. That, however, is a less
serious offense than making criminal threats.

 

The only good thing that can come is this is that light will be shed on women in abusive relationships. If Rihanna stands strong, maybe other women around the world will be inspired to stop putting up with abuse. It's absolutely horrific what a common problem this really is.

Some men are just pr*cks, I think it is a power or control thing. Last night I am in Target and there is a family in there looking at baby stuff. The kids are happy and having fun picking things out for their new sister, mom is loving it. Then there is a$$whole dad who out of the blue says, I AM LEAVING in his grumpy voice. The cute little girl starts to ask her dad about something for the baby and he screams at her I AM LEAVING and just walks away leaving his beautiful little family there. The kids get upset, the mom is walking on eggshells trying to make everyone happy again and go meet up with dad. Anyway, I thought that was so sad. I could not be married to a guy with so little respect for his family. He was a little guy, probably drives a big truck to make him look all tough. If I was a single woman today, I would probably run far away from marriage because I see this kind of behavior way too much. It's sad because I know there are good guys out there, but the bad ones sure would make me think twice.

Hate to say this, but I no longer pity Rihanna. She should have left the first time he put his hands on her. I'm not saying this is her fault, but she could have prevented it by NOT returning to an abusive relationship.

Anonymous Anonymous said:

I have to agree with you. If this has happened before, she should have left before. She has plenty of support around her and people who love her. If she was by herself or did not have money to leave the relationship it would be another story. This is not your typical everyday abuse story. Alot of women stay because they don't have anywhere to go, or money to leave, or someone to trust. But that is not the case with Rihanna. In the end I really think it can down to this power struggle between the two of them. She wanted to control him and he had anger issues also. She pushed his buttons, and then you ended up where you are today. If you ask alot of abuse victims, they will tell you, they say it coming. So I think Rihanna knew it was only a matter of time before he lost control (and she helped him) and she choose to stick around. Does it give him the right to hit her? No of course not, but she should have left a long time ago and this would not have happened.

I totally agree. He's a douche for doing it, but she's also a moron for allowing it.

Wow. Amazing. These comments just gave me the biggest Hate-on of my life. Educate yourselves ladies. The dynamics of abusive relationships are much more complicated, manipulative, and evil than your aware. He's not a douche... he's an animal that preys. She's not a moron, she's a young girl that was put through hell. The fact that this isn't the first time requires MORE sympathy and compassion, this child was in a type of relationship that was so evil and debasing that women twice her age have a hard time getting out of... some only get away from this kind of crap by dying gruesome and brutal deaths. God help you. God help anyone of you who have daughters.

You bet!!! But fortunately now the world is watching and she has to make the right choice now (lets hope). When "we" go back to that type of situation our actions are saying this behavior is o.k. I pray she gives courage to young adult women everywhere by saying "NO MORE" and never going back to that B.S.

God, I hope they don't wind up back together....but that's always a possibility in abusive relationships. I had a friend once who was abused a lot by her husband and I just couldn't deal with it anymore when, for the 20th time, he'd beat her, she'd come stay with me, and then she'd go back to him I gave up. Eventually she left him and went with another abusive guy. I cut ties with her because I just couldn't do it anymore. I have no idea what happened to her, I always tried to get her help/therapy (even offered to pay for it) but she'd always say she was fine and didn't need it. To this day I always say a little prayer that she's okay. :(

I agree Greyeyes. I was dating someone for 6 years and though he was never physically abusive he did say things that he shouldn't have. One day we got into an argument, he choked me twice, I broke his finger to get away, and from that day I NEVER went back to him. I was DONE. I was NOT going to let HIM take MY LIFE or WORSE have me take his and then be locked up in prison! There is ALWAYS a way out and women need to learn that if a man puts a hand on them ONCE they need to move on.

Some women leave, others stay, and then they are victims and thats really sad. I had the will to know to walk out. There are so many sites for help and so many shows, movies, that talk about abuse and what it does. I did see them and I got out before anything worse happened. Oh and let me tell you I was sick and in love with him for a year after. It was hard but my life was MORE important. I got over it and found my husband that is the world to me.

My father was physically abusive and it took my mother 20 years to leave him. Its not easy to leave and it seems black and white, but its different when its you. When one of my exes hit me I left immediately, because of how my father treated my mother. I understand the position Rihanna is in and its extremely tough. She needs to walk away and gather her life back together.

Men can be the ones at abusive relationships too. Hopefully Rhianna will come out of this stronger and help both women AND men stand up to abusive partners.

i don't believe in domestic violence from men or women, but something about these stories seem so suspect. no one really knows what's going on except for chris, rihanna, and God. People need to focus more on women who aren't in the limelight who are getting abused and the police are slow to help them rather than sensationalized story that there are no concrete facts or pictures and more evidence is needed.

and why are you just know mentioning past abuse, yet you try to hold on to him so tightly?

its a shame women do not feel more empowered to leave an abusive relationship. Last week my mom called the cops because she heard a woman crying outside and a guy was with her. She heard the woman say multiple times to go away, Don't hit me again.. please don't hit me... My mother called the police. Two cars showed up and took the two people separately aside and talked. Then the guy and girl hugged and made up. This woman was abused, the cops were there and she could have had the guy taken away. She had an out right then and there and did not take it. Its women like this that piss me off and allow themself to be abused. My brother is a cop and hates domestic dispute calls because more often than not, the couple makes up in front of them and the woman stays when she could have had the guy taken in. They always know they will be back to that house again for the same thing.

I do not personally know anyone in Rihanna's postion, but I will go out on a limb and say that being such a public figure, it would have been VERY easy for her to get out of the relationship. For some it is not that easy, but you can almost always find a way out...if you wanted.

Anonymous Anonymous said:

You fool. The women who do get out are lucky, not b/c it was easier for them. Let me say this : my father beat the crap out of my mother for 20 years before she left. She is educated, financially secure, and was an ER nurse who saw women in that situation constantly. If my mother did not take my father back when authorities were watching, kiss and make up, say everything was ok, there is NO DOUBT in my mind he would have killed her at least 3 occasions. There needs to be a safety net for them in place---and I hope you or your brother don't mistake the police as a safety net. I hope to God you honestly don't think that the police in the same room with that woman AT THAT MOMENT makes them safe from violence once they leave... or two days later... or two weeks later. They know they are GOING TO GET IT once the man w/ the badge and gun leave. Believe it. It's True.

You think it would be EASIER being a public figure...? Going from the teen dream to "that moron who lets herself get abused"? All over the news? The blogs? At 19 or 20? A lot of women stay partly out of shame that their perfect seeming life is out of control and miserable. Struggling from low self worth, that people will blame them, that escape is futile, that their friends, family, co-workers, bosses, and neighbors will never look at them the same way, will lose respect for them, and say

"You could have found a way to make it stop sooner... you could have found a way out faster.... if you had wanted to."

Maybe you should do battered women outreach they can call you when their being beaten so you can whisper in their ears (or yell if they are screaming to loud) "YOU SHOULD HAVE LEFT BEFORE IT GOT TO THIS POINT...BUT YOU WANTED THIS... DIDN'T YOU?"

HOW DO YOU KNOW SHE'S TELLIN THE TRUTH, SHE IS A WOMEN WHO'S SCORNED. NOW SHE WANTS TO GET BACK AT HIM AS MUCH AS SHE CAN. IF HE HAD HIT HER BEFORE, AS MUCH THEY ARE FOLLOWED SOMEONE WOULD HAVE NOTICED SOMETHING. ITS FUNNY HOW WOMEN FIGHT FOR ALL THESE RIGHTS WANT EVERYTHING A MAN HAS, THEN THEY WANT TO CRY POOR ME. NOBODY HAS EVEN SEEN PICTURES OR WERE THERE, JUST DEPENDING ON GOSSIP SITE FACTS. PEOPLE STILL LISTEN AND WATCHING R.KELLY, WOODY ALLEN, AND MICHEAL JACKSON SO YOU CAN MOLEST CHILDREN BUT YOU JUST CANT SLAP WOMEN CONDEMNING CHRIS BROWN BEFORE HE GOES TO COURT OVER ONE SIDE OF THE STORY SHAME SMH!!

P.S IM AM A FEMALE AND IVE SEEN THIS TYPE OF THING HAPPEN BEFORE A MAN WENT TO JAIL FOR TWO YEARS OVER A WOMEN WHO WAS MAD AND LIED TO POLICE IT COULD RUIN LIVES BUT I GUESS PEOPLE DONT CARE THEY SAW IT ON TV IT MUST BE TRUE.

Dude, turn off the caps lock. BTW, there are too many people saying that they've seen her and there are apparently pictures of her that were taken at the police station. Her mother made a statement, others have made statements. We don't know what caused any of it, but there is NO excuse for her to have come out of ANY situation with a split lip or bruised face, unless she was trying kill him and it was completely unprovoked. That doesn't sound like it was the case. The entire thing is beyond sad. It's also sad that you are comparing child molestation to domestic abuse. Apples and oranges, baby. Both horrible and disgusting, btw.

Second of all - you sound like you are stuck in the stone age "ITS FUNNY HOW WOMEN FIGHT FOR ALL THESE RIGHTS WANT EVERYTHING A MAN HAS, THEN THEY WANT TO CRY POOR ME." Personally, if a woman is going to do that - that is on them, but all of the women I associate with are NOT like that. Believe it or not there are strong independent women who get stuck in situations like this and find it difficult to leave for one reason or another. Don't try to act like you know everyone's story.

For the ones who are talking about her leaving, etc... It's not easy. My father was abusive for years and my mother had all the conditions to leave him - she had financial independency, loads of friends trying to make her see, etc., but she just couldn't. And even after she left him, she spent years saying it was our (the kids) fault. Abusive relationships are very fragile situations.

That's the reality of it. I feel like if everyone who is reading this and not saying anything....If you grew up like that, been in that, loved someone who has, love someone who is NOW, then you KNOW. Its worse than anyone can say about it in a newspaper, an it's harder to leave than ignorant neanderthals realize. Whatever that girl has been through is more horrific (even though Chris Brown did an AMAZING job of horrifying medical and law enforcer professionals who see these kinds of things) behind closed doors, than what is being told.

You are always positive and i like to read your stuff but this time i draw the line...stop making an example of both rihanna and chris till you know the truth.. it is unfair and as a mother you should think about it happening to your child before you starting adding fuel to the fire with your unjustifed comments..Please be more responsible and i really think it is unfair for you to be telling people, young girls in particular to look up to someone yet you know nothing..i am really disgusted by you right now...

There is no need to have a blow by blow account of what happened prior to Chris beating Rhianna unconscious. None. All anyone with a brain needs to know is that he BEAT HER FACE IN. Details don't matter. That was criminal and foul. Rhianna CAN'T look worse than Chirs in this. It isn't possible. As a mother people need to think about how it would feel to see your daughters bruised, swollen and bloody. Not about how that freak Chris Brown feels. He obvisously doesn't feel anything... B/C he's dead inside.

People are jumping on one side before they even here the other side. There are three sides to a story and it seems to me the media only wants you to believe the hype and they don't care that this is a personal problem.
They always blow things out of the water and since we are celebrity obsessed we can't see that they are people too. The use the bathroom just as us "regular" folks do, they eat and sleep too. I not believing anything until I hear it start from the horses mouth. All these SOURCES coming out of here and there not believable. It is getting ridiculous, everyday it's a new version of the story and she has different injuries. This is like the game that we used to play in school were the teacher would say something in a student's ear and then it would pass until it was at the last student and they would say something crazy. This is not a game this is real life not something to make money off of. To end my rant Men and Women should keep their HANDS to THEMSElVES!!!! Stop the violence
