"I'm going to beat the shit out of you when we get home!" - According to court papers, a statement from Chris Brown to Rihanna on the night he allegedly beat the crap out of her.
Singer Chris Brown has been hit with a double dose of felony charges for his alleged assault on his girlfriend, Rihanna, aka Robyn Fenty.
The LA Times posted the court documents here.
I know that writing about crime seeks in part to re-tell the stories found in court documents in an interesting manner, leaving the dryness of legal reportage behind, but sometimes the plain facts of what allegedly happened are just as compelling as anything cooked up by any journalist. Go here to read the court papers in a format that may load a little more easily than the pdf posted by the Times.
Looks like Elmo was lucky to get away unscathed.
