Chris Brown Released From Jail, ‘Thank You GOD!’

Chris Brown was released early Monday from a Los Angeles County jail.

As previously reported, the singer 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 that he 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.

The Grammy-winning singer was on probation after he attacked his then girlfriend, Rihanna hours before the 2009 Grammy Awards. In October, while on probation, Brown was accused of attacking a man outside a hotel in the nation’s capital in October. He was charged with misdemeanor assault.
