    CNN) -- The argument that led to singer Chris Brown's arrest on felony assault charges began when his girlfriend found a text message on his cell phone from "a woman who Brown had a previous sexual relationship with," according to a sworn police statement.


    Chris Brown is charged with felony counts of assault and making criminal threats.

    Authorities charged Brown on Thursday with felony counts of assault and making criminal threats, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office said.

    The charges are in connection with an alleged attack last month on "his girlfriend," the office said.

    It identified the woman only as Robyn F., but sources close to the couple have told CNN the alleged victim was singer Rihanna, whose full name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty.

    Brown was scheduled to appear in court later Thursday.

    Rihanna, 21, was allegedly attacked by Brown on February 8 on a Los Angeles street before the two were to perform at the Grammys.

    Brown apologized for the incident last month.

    "Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired," the 19-year-old said in a statement released by his spokesman. "I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person."

    A search warrant used by police to obtain cell phone records related to the case included the sworn statement by Los Angeles Police Detective DeShon Andrews in which he detailed what allegedly happened in the early morning hours of February 8.

    According to the statement:

    "Brown was driving a vehicle with Robyn F. as the front passenger on an unknown street in Los Angeles. Robyn F. picked up Brown's cellular phone and observed a three-page text message from a woman who Brown had a previous sexual relationship with.

    "A verbal argument ensued and Brown pulled the vehicle over on an unknown street, reached over Robyn F. with his right hand, opened the car door and attempted to force her out. Brown was unable to force Robyn F. out of the vehicle because she was wearing a seat belt. When he could not force her to exit, he took his right hand and shoved her head against he passenger window of the vehicle, causing an approximate one-inch raised circular contusion.

    "Robyn F. turned to face Brown and he punched her in the left eye with his right hand. He then drove away in the vehicle and continued to punch her in the face with his right hand while steering the vehicle with his left hand. The assault caused Robyn F.'s mouth to fill with blood and blood to splatter all over her clothing and the interior of the vehicle.

    "Brown looked at Robyn F. and stated, 'I'm going to beat the s--t out of you when we get home! You wait and see!'"

    The detective said she then used her cell phone to call her personal assistant, Jennifer Rosales, who did not answer.

    "Robyn F. pretended to talk to her and stated, 'I'm on my way home. Make sure the police are there when I get there.'

    "After Robyn F. faked the call, Brown looked at her and stated, 'You just did the stupidest thing ever! Now I'm really going to kill you!'

    "Brown resumed punching Robyn F. and she interlocked her fingers behind her head and brought her elbows forward to protect her face. She then bent over at the waist, placing her elbows and face near her lap in [an] attempt to protect her face and head from the barrage of punches being levied upon her by Brown.

    "Brown continued to punch Robyn F. on her left arm and hand, causing her to suffer a contusion on her left triceps that was approximately two inches in diameter and numerous contusions on her left hand.

    "Robyn F. then attempted to send a text message to her other personal assistant, Melissa Ford. Brown snatched the cellular telephone out of her hand and threw it out of the window onto an unknown street.

    "Brown continued driving and Robyn F. observed his cellular telephone sitting in his lap. She picked up the cellular telephone with her left hand and before she could make a call he placed her in a head lock with his right hand and continued to drive the vehicle with his left hand.

    "Brown pulled Robyn F. close to him and bit her on her left ear. She was able to feel the vehicle swerving from right to left as Brown sped away. He stopped the vehicle in front of 333 North June Street and Robyn F. turned off the car, removed the key from the ignition and sat on it.

    "Brown did not know what she did with the key and began punching her in the face and arms. He then placed her in a head lock positioning the front of her throat between his bicep and forearm. Brown began applying pressure to Robyn F.'s left and right carotid arteries, causing her to be unable to breathe and she began to lose consciousness.

    "She reached up with her left hand and began attempting to gouge his eyes in an attempt to free herself. Brown bit her left ring and middle fingers and then released her. While Brown continued to punch her, she turned around and placed her back against the passenger door. She brought her knees to her chest, placed her feet against Brown's body and began pushing him away. Brown continued to punch her on the legs and feet, causing several contusions.

    "Robyn F. began screaming for help and Brown exited the vehicle and walked away. A resident in the neighborhood heard Robyn F.'s plea for help and called 911, causing a police response. An investigation was conducted and Robyn F. was issued a Domestic Violence Emergency Protective Order

    What is even worse is all the people that have been publically supporting Chris Brown knowing that he beat her, tons of celebrities and entertainers. I also can't believe that Rihanna and returned to him.

    She comes from a history of abuse so his reaction was normal in her books. There are other girls out there, however, that come from strong families and the second you lay a finger on them, they're out the door and never to be heard from again. I don't think it's right what either of them did (him hitting her, and her coming back to him), but they're another young couple in love and clearly both of them made some mistakes.

    isn't she still pregnant, I mean, she may be in a hormonal way, and he just a teenager with raging imaturity, but someone has to pull these rich, over the top kids aside and give them a few years timeout.

    too much fame, fortune and not enough mentoring: It'll amount to another baby following in their poor example

    Last I heard they got married? Anyways I really hope reports that they're back together aren't true. Didn't think it was this bad but after reading the report on the incident I'm disgusted by Chris Browns behavior.

    Also the vehicle they were in was a Lamborghini Gallardo which I think makes this whole thing a little crazier.

    I cant understand how she can forgive him either. I do know a couple of girls who have been in these kind of relationships, i can remember asking one recently why she has gone back to the ***** that she was with (beat her and threatened to push her down the stairs when she thought she was pregnant) and she said that he has 'changed'. Bullcrap.

    The guy will get the book thrown at him. Garagos hasn't had the best celebrity, winning track record lately, but you know he'll come out fighting or possibly just plea bargain. The only thing that will come good out of this is putting all other woman abusers on notice especially if he does jail time.

    So, Cliff notes of whole thing:

    Chris Brown beats up Rihanna (bad enough for her to head to the hospital)
    Brown takes off before cops arrive.
    Issues an apology a few days later saying he is seeking help from his "Pastor" (yea frickin right).
    So a few weeks later they are back together.

    Great role model she is for her "fans". What a crock of ****. The new Ike and Tina/Whitney and Bobby.

    He should be in jail. Period.

    TMZ thinks he will plea for some jail time and keep out of the court room because evidently there are some pics of Rihanna from day after that are so disturbing that he would rather go to jail then have them public. TMZ has a few photos from a couple days after and they look bad enough.

    In many cases these women subconsciously seek out abusive relationships due to low self esteem or abusive childhood etc. Given that it's no surprise that they go back to the abuser and blame themselves and believe things will change. It's a vicious cycle.

    If they have self worth they're out of there the first sign of any abuse either that or they sense it and don't give the guy the time of day from the start.

    Couldn't agree more, but i think we all know he'll really get the smallest sentence possible. He'll just pay someone off or apollogize in public or something. I never really liked him anyway he seems like a big headed P***k to be honest.

    My prediction:

    1.) Charges dropped or dismissed against him.

    2.) He and Rhianna get back together.



    Now we wait and see....
