Chris Brown sentenced to 5 years for Rihanna assault

Chris Brown was formally sentenced today in Los Angeles after pleading guilty on June 22nd to assault charges stemming from his February 8th altercation with Rihanna.

The sentencing was delayed earlier this month because documents detailing Brown’s proposed community service plan in Virginia, where he maintains a legal residence and wants to serve his sentence, had not arrived in time for Schnegg to review them.
