As the world knows by now, Chris Brown has copped a plea, which has left him on probation for five years and required him to attend domestic violence classes for a year. While most people agree that he got a good bargain, it looks like in some ways, Rihanna got one too.
Because CB copped a deal, it means that the sordid details, whatever they are, are left out of public scrutiny. While the pictures don’t lie, and Chris Brown clearly flew off the deep end (no matter what provoked him), if Ri Ri had a history of violence against CB, or if she somehow initiated the fight, those particulars of the story will never see the light of day. She can now remain 100 percent innocent in this case, without any of the gray area that may surround the case ever coming to the light.
On the flip side, she can also move on more quickly from this dark period of her life. With Chris already paying for his crime, there’s no lengthy trial or drawn out trips down memory lane—which is a good look for her and whatever moves she plans on making in the future. -jh
