Five months after the incident, Chris Brown finally made a public apology to Rihanna via a video statement posted to his official Web site. Apparently, his attorney advised him against speaking about the whole thing despite his deepest wishes to do so. He said: ” Since February my attorney has advised me not to speak out even though ever since the incident I wanted to publicly express my deepest regret and accept full responsibility, I felt it was time [that] you hear directly from me that I am sorry. I cannot go into what happened, and most importantly am not going to sit here and make any excuses. I take great pride in me being able to exercise self control, and what I did was inexcusable. I am very saddened and very ashamed of what I have done. My mother and my spiritual teachers have taught me way better than that. I have told Rihanna countless times, and I am telling you today, that I am truly sorry and that I wasn’t able to handle the situation both differently and better. As many of you know, I grew up in a home where there was domestic violence and I saw firsthand what uncontrolled rage can do. What I did was unacceptable 100 percent. I can only ask and pray that you forgive me – please.” VIDEO!
Last month, the 20-year-old singer pleaded guilty to felony assault by means likely to cause great bodily injury. In exchange, he was sentenced to five years probation and 180 days of community labor to be served in Virginia. He was also ordered to complete a year of domestic violence classes, reports Us.
