Report: Chris Brown Released From Prison!

It has been reported that Chris Brown was finally released from a Los Angeles County jail early Monday, authorities have told the Associated Press.

Los Angeles Sheriff’s deputy Tony Moore told the AP that Brown was released at 12:01 a.m. Monday, but he didn’t have any more details.

Brown had been in custody since mid-March, when he was arrested after being expelled from a court-ordered rehab sentence for violating its rules.

And a judge last month ordered the R&B singer to remain in jail after he admitted he violated his probation by getting into an altercation outside a hotel in Washington, D.C., last year.

In his May 9 decision, Superior Court Judge James R. Brandlin sentenced the singer to serve an additional 131 days in jail, but he had been expected to get out much sooner.

Brandlin had sentenced Brown to serve a year in county jail but gave him credit for nearly eight months. The credits include time that the singer has spent in rehab and jail, as well as credits for good behavior while behind bars.

During his May 9 court appearance, Brown admitted he committed a crime in that case and waived his rights to an evidentiary hearing in which prosecutors would have to prove that Brown violated his probation.

Brandlin had said Brown will have to complete the remainder of his 1,000 hours of community labor once he is released from jail. As of early February, Brown had 800 hours of community labor remaining.

Late Sunday night, Brown’s girlfriend Karrueche Tran posted an image on her Instagram, which was a collage photo of various images of John Lennon and Yoko Ono along with herself and Brown.

Early Monday morning, Brown tweeted “Humbled and Blessed,” “Back to the Music and the Fans,” “Thank you GOD.”
