Hardly anyone expected such details
Chris Brown is presumed innocent until proven guilty. That is the American way. Not all the details pertaining to this incident have been revealed. Chris Brown, like every other American, is entitled to defenses to counter the allegations against him. Therefore, it would probably be wise to hold off judging him until we find out more. It has not been established who caused Rihanna’s bruises. This will be left to a trier of fact. Reports indicate they had come from a party prior to the incident. Whether Rihanna or Chris Brown had alcohol at the party or thereafter and the affects of the alcohol on the both Rihanna’s and Chris Brown’s behavior and mental states should be explored.
