He also alleges that the evidence provided in the series is completely false.“To put it simply, this case is about the media putting their own profits over the truth,” the lawsuit reads. “Since the beginning of October of 2024, Ample LLC and Warner Brothers were put on notice that they were promoting and publishing false information in their pursuit of likes, clicks, downloads and dollars and to the detriment of Chris Brown. Ultimately, on October 27, 2024, they aired Chris Brown: A History of Violence (the ‘Documentary’), knowing that it was full of lies and deception and violating basic journalist principles.”
The lawsuit also alleges that Jane Doe’s claims used in the doc had been “discredited over and over,” and that she was “a perpetrator of intimate partner violence and aggressor herself.”Chris Brown: A History of Violence “charts Chris Brown’s past all the way back to his troubled childhood, explores the lasting impact of the cycle of abuse, and poses the question: How does a man with such a violent public record maintain his superstar status?” reads the series’ official description. “With expert and cultural commentary layered throughout, the documentary provides thoughtful reflections into each survivor’s experience and the psychological destruction in the aftermath of their abuse.”Comments are monitored, so don’t forkin’ curse and don’t bore us with how much your coworker’s sister-in-law makes per hour.

ΔThis guy is complete garbage. Always has been always will be.If what he’s saying is true that they provided evidence that proved the SA claim was false and WB proceeded to portray him as a rapist anyway then someone is about to lose a lot of money.Chris Brown pleaded guilty to beating up Rihanna. The guy is a violent thug IMHO.He appeared to be a violent predator before the documentary. Perhaps a nuisance lawsuit he hopes WBD will settle as a cost savings measure with details sealed so he claim a victory of sorts.“I don’t rape women, I only beat them up.” – Chris Brown.I pray he wins this suit and shows unequivocally that people need to leave him alone.By providing your information, you agree to our Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy.
