Making The Band alum Sara Stokes was arrested in the wee hours of July 21 for a brawl with husband, Tony. Stokes, who according to police was intoxicated, was charged with domestic violence.
This latest incident violates Stokes probation from a August 2009 domestic violence case, also with husband. Stokes stabbed her husband, in the presence of their three children in Moreno Valley, California. Her lawyer argued Stokes and husband was simply having fun when she tripped and hurt herself. Tony was ‘injured’ while helping her. She received three years probation in a plea deal. Stokes will now serve 93 days in jail for her latest offense.
Stokes is best known from the reality show music group Da Band, headed and hand picked by hip hop mogul Diddy. Joined by rappers Chopper, Ness, Fred Watson, Baps and reggae artist Dylan, the group, who auditioned in 2002, released one album, Too Hot For TV in 2003. After three seasons of the popular MTV series, the group, known for walking from Manhattan to Brooklyn to fetch cheesecake for boss Diddy, dismantled. Each member pursued solo careers.
