Chris Brown: A History of Violence - Details of documentary focussing on rapper's alleged pattern of violence, explored
According to a report by the Mirror dated October 2, 2024, a documentary on Chris Brown's alleged pattern of abuse aired on Investigation Discovery on October 27, 2024, as a part of the network's No Excuse for Abuse campaign.
In the documentary's trailer, Sergeant Cheryl Dorsey, a 20-year veteran of the Los Angeles Police Department, can be heard stating:
"Chris Brown’s an amazing and talented musician, but let’s call a thing a thing: he’s an abuser of women — consistently, unapologetically."
As per CNN's report dated October 28, 2024, a woman, dubbed Jane Doe to hide her identity, sat down for an interview to discuss her allegations against Brown for the first time, as part of the documentary.
The woman had sued Chris Brown for allegedly assaulting and drugging her in 2020, during a yacht party hosted by Diddy. She had sued Brown in 2022 in a $20 million lawsuit, however, the case was dismissed by a judge in the same year owing to lack of prosecution.
Additionally, the documentary mentioned that the Miami Beach Police concluded the report was unfounded, and there was no probable cause to arrest the No One Else singer on criminal charges, resulting in the case getting closed.
Meanwhile, Brown's attorney Levi McCathern told Investigation Discovery that Jane Doe's claims are "entirely fabricated," and dubbed the documentary "malicious and false." The documentary also showcased multiple allegations of abuse levied against Brown over the years, including his alleged assault on ex-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009.
Apart from these lawsuits, Brown was sued for $50 million in July 2024 by four concertgoers, who alleged that the rapper and his associates beat them after a performance in Texas, as per a report by Variety dated July 22.
The concertgoers also sued Brown's promoters Live Nation, Sinko Ceej, Hood Boss, and Yella Beezy, and requested temporary restraining orders against the rapper and promoters.
