Chris Brown’s Probation Report

Thursday, February 18 2010 10:23 PM EST | Posted by: Big Homie | Posted in: Blog, R&B

Glad to see fuck boy Christopher on the right path. Earlier today, L.A. Superior Court Judge complimented Chris during his progress hearing in L.A. court. “Looks like you’re doing really, really well [fulfilling your probation terms]. That’s always good to see.” The Judge also revealed the R&B singer has completed 17 out of the 52 group sessions without missing one. He’s also completed 32 days of his 180 days of community service. Good job Breezy. I guess not everybody hates Chris.
