Singer Chris Brown rejected a plea deal in a Washington, D.C. courtroom yesterday, maintaining innocence after being accused of punching a fan and breaking his nose on his Brown’s tour bus last October.
Attorney Mark Geragos, who represented the late Michael Jackson during his run-ins with the law, said in an exclusive interview that Brown rejected the proposed deal “because he’s not guilty.”
He continued, ”I’ve seen everything I need to see in this case, so absent prosecutors turning over video footage of [Brown] doing it, there’s little or no chance of any plea deal.”
Prosecutors said Wednesday they had uncovered related surveillance footage, but made no further comment. Brown appeared in court with girlfriend, Karrueche Tran. Brown will return to court February 20 along with all other involved parties to receive his trial date.
