Brown has faced multiple assault charges over the years. His most notorious accusation involves assaulting his ex-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009.
The controversial singer accepted a plea deal and avoided jail time in the Rihanna case. He pleaded guilty to one count of felonious assault. The judge sentenced Brown to five years probation and 180 days of community service. Brown must complete a domestic violence counseling program.
Last year, a man named Abe Diaw sued Brown over an incident at a London nightclub. Brown is accused of hitting Diaw in the head with a tequila bottle and stomping on the man. The attack allegedly resulted in Diaw being hospitalized.
