Bobby Brown Sent to the Slammer

Posted Feb 26th 2007 3:03PM by TMZ Staff

Bobby Brown Arrested Again UPDATE [4:25]: TMZ has learned that Bobby Brown was sentenced to 10-30 days in jail for failing to appear at a child support hearing. Brown is currently being transported to the Norfolk County House of Corrections. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ that at some point tonight, Brown will have an opportunity to pay what he owes and get out of his sentence. Story developing ...

For the second time in a year, singer Bobby Brown was arrested in Massachusetts for failing to appear at a child support hearing.

Brown was nabbed around 6:00 PM Sunday night while attending a high school cheerleading competition in which his daughter was participating. Brown was reportedly "cooperative" outside the school -- cops say he even borrowed their cell phone to arrange to get out of jail.

The "Don't Be Cruel" crooner was sentenced to 90 days in prison back in 2004, for missing three months of child support payments. Lucky for him, a judge suspended that sentence immediately after Brown paid roughly $15,000 in owed payments. Then last March, Bobby was nabbed for a 14-year-old motor vehicle violation, also when he arrived to watch his daughter at another cheerleading competition.

37. Sure Bobby is not an example of what a man should be. There are quite a few others who dont have Bobby's status who do the same thing but done get talked about like this. So hopefully while Mr. Brown is being put down, we will take the initative to tell those people we talk to and know that have the same issues with themselves to get it together and be a better man.

38. Carribean loser please go back to your pitiful existance! If you really are "black" and "educated" you would know that you don't give any racist slime the time of day. I think you are a 13 year old white boy using mommy and daddy's computer to try to stir shit up. GO AWAY!

39. I think that you all are missing the point that Goddess is trying to make. You know damn well that what she is saying is true. None
of here out here are living in a fairytale and we are sure not
perfect and at first I got mad at what she said but sometimes the truth hurts. She is entitled to give to give her opinion just like the
rest of us. I have seen a numerous amount of you guys miss spell
words all the time by accident so please don't force the matter. I
know a couple of girls who called child support on the father of
their children just because they were mad at them for other
personal reasons other than financial support. Also, I do date white woman who have identity crisis because they wanted to look more "black." I still think that Bobby is a loser but like
Goddess said no one here is perfect, I know that I'm not. Are you? How do you feel about Bobby Brown getting arrested
Again?

42. Shut up goddess! Get an education and maybe you will have less time to type out long posts with incorrect grammer and spelling.

43. Goddess I see what you are saying. I do hope that your comments about white people are out of anger. I am white and thrilled about Jennifer Hudson and any other PERSON that deserves an award. You have made some good points, so don't let your anger get the best of you. You are right on the money about the child suport thing. The child support system is a failure. Courts subject payee to unreasonable monthly payments and then put them in jail when they can't pay. Petty, bitter and angry mothers don't want the father (or mother in some situations) to be able to move on with their life, so they involve the courts in order to hurt the other person. It is an unfortunate game that only truly hurts the child in the end.

44. Mr. P I know there are probably cases of mothers abusing the system for their own gain but those are far and few between and are laughed out of court for not being legitimate. There are far more deadbeat dads abusing the system. Case in point- Bobby Brown.

45. Peaches, YES YOU ARE RIGHT! Any man can improve himself.. MLK..Sidney Poitier.. UM, Will Smith, Stevie Wonder...sorry I'm drunk.. but I agree. I love RESPECTABLE, (BLACK MEN), who do for themselves no matter what. They are truely what this world needs. Have they EVER played the race card- or just tried harder to prove their point! I am white but I can say this.. If Barrack's running ,he's got my vote. Not because he's black (half,,whatever) but because I trust him, a hell of alot more than GW Bush!
