Brown turned himself in to the Los Angeles Police Department's Wilshire station on February 8, 2009 and was booked on suspicion of making criminal threats, while under investigation for domestic violence charges, following an argument with fellow singer and girlfriend Rihanna in Los Angeles's Hancock Park. The police report did not name the female in the incident as is policy, but stated that the female had "suffered visible injuries."He was set to perform at the 2009 Grammy Awards, but was replaced by Justin Timberlake and Al Green. The Los Angeles Times reported that he is being represented by defense attorney Mark Geragos, and according to Fox News, 19 year-old Brown recently hired acclaimed PR spin doctor Michael Sitrick to counter the wave of bad press the R&B singer has received since his (alleged) violent outburst at Rihanna. Brown later pulled out of a scheduled appearance at the 2009 NBA All-Star Game. He had been tapped to introduce the players with Shaquille O'Neal before tip-off at Phoenix's US Airways Center. Following the incident, Brown's music has been pulled off of radio stations and his advertisements for Wrigley's and Got Milk? have been suspended, and Sesame Workshop announced that his episode of Sesame Street would be pulled from future broadcast. Brown released a statement saying, "Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired," he said. "I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person." info (c) wikipedia.org
