Chris Brown criminal Defense may turn on Leaked picture

Mark Geragos has yet disclosed any details about his defense of singer Chris Brown against the charges that he brutally attacked performer Rihanna. Regardless of this, a variety of different statements by his defense attorney last week seem to indicate that a portion of his strategy may be to go after the police department for the leak of a photograph of the performers bruised face. Compared to some other contemporary recording artists who will remain nameless at this time, Chris Brown is not as much into the flashy hip hop jewelry. While he has been seen with his 14k Gold Ring or techno master watch he is not generally pictured with the yellow rop chain, gold earrings or dog tag like so many of his peers in the hip hop universe. Of course, n18k Gold Ring is still a reasonable amount of "hip hop jewelry". While the specific details of the case are as of yet not completely clear, what is known as fact is that he mentioned to a judge that he was going to ask for data concerning possible police misbehavior or perhaps procedural mistakes made during their investigation, according to recent reports on Yahoo news and so on. It is not precisely clear how the Los Angeles police dept. plans to deal with these potential allegations but what is known at this time is that they are now in the long and ardous process of questioning their own personnel and going over computers records for the past 2 months or so trying to uncover whether or not one of their people sold or otherwise gave the picture to someone in the mainstream media. Shining the spotlight on the Los Angeles police's handling of the said photograph would certainly add to their embarresment, much like the dream team's focus on the investigative officers in the OJ case more than a decade ago. The Los Angeles department does not need another such bruise. Since his arrest, some of his commercial ads were canceled or at least suspended, his music was taken off of certain radio stations, and he has avoided public appearances, for the most part. I am not sure if he is wearing a techno master watch these days, though.
