A new documentary calls Chris Brown’s behavior into question again.

Investigative Discoveries Chris Brown: A History of Violence investigates allegations against the organization “Run It!” singers Rihanna, Karrueche Tran and others. In the document, several women come forward about the allegations against the R&B singer, including a Jane Doe who claims Brown drugged and raped her on Sean “Diddy” Combs’ yacht in 2020.

Brown’s lawyers dispute Doe’s claim and call all allegations in the documentary “malicious and false.”

what is Chris Brown: A History of Violence around?

In keeping with the network’s No Excuse for Abuse campaign for Domestic Violence Awareness Month, the documentary looks at Brown’s rise in the music world – touted as the next Michael Jackson – and how it failed after he physically assaulted Rihanna in 2009 had attacked.

TMZ obtained leaked police photos of Rihanna’s apparent injuries. In a police report, she said Brown hit her repeatedly with his fist, choked her until she almost lost consciousness and threatened to “kill” her. He pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and was sentenced to five years probation and community service.

Brown and Rihanna later got back together – brought back together by Combs, who invited them both to his Miami home to work things out – and then broke up (twice). Domestic violence experts explained in the document how when people grow up witnessing abuse, as Brown and Rihanna said, it becomes more difficult to end patterns of abuse.

The documentary details how Brown’s abuse allegedly continued. Tran, his girlfriend from 2010 to 2015, had a five-year restraining order issued against him. The model claimed he punched her twice in the stomach, pushed her down a flight of stairs, threatened to kill her and threatened her friends.

Brown also smashed his mother’s car windows with a rock while in anger management rehab and broke a window on set Good morning America. He fought with Drake and Frank Ocean. His former manager Michael Guirguis, known as Mike G, sued him for assault, false imprisonment and battery. Brown was found guilty of breaking a man’s nose without provocation. Over the summer he was indicted for allegedly brutally beating several men with the help of his entourage at one of his concerts in Texas.

There were several allegations of sexual assault.

Freddy Sayegh, a criminal defense and entertainment lawyer, said in the document: “I have looked at most of his criminal history and he has a 15-year history of being involved in some form of reported violence almost every year of his life .”

The documentary examines how Brown — who has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder, according to court documents — has maintained his superstar status despite this long list of serious allegations. A year after Rihanna’s attack, BET commissioned Brown to do a major tribute to Michael Jackson. When he launched his “11:11 Tour” in June this year, he joked to a sold-out crowd about attempts to “black him up.” Brown remains popular with fans and is the second-most followed male artist on Instagram.

Woman who accused Brown of raping her on Combs’ yacht appears in document

A Jane Doe appears in the documentary who claims Brown drugged and raped her in 2020.

She said she received “death threats” after suing Brown in 2022 – the case was dismissed “without prejudice” – but she spoke out to “shed light on what really happened.”

Doe said she was an aspiring dancer who had just moved to Los Angeles. On a trip to Miami, a friend invited her to Combs’ house on Star Island. That day, she met Combs — who is currently incarcerated ahead of his trial on sex trafficking charges — and Brown.

Doe said Brown was initially nice and friendly. She hoped that connecting with him would boost her budding dance career.

“We had been talking and he had given me something to drink,” she said. “This is when my memory gets a little weird,” because her body suddenly became heavy and she started to feel tired.

Doe said Brown offered to take her on a yacht tour, but she claimed he took her to a bedroom and raped her when she said “no.” She claimed he texted her afterwards and told her to take Plan B, the morning-after pill.

Doe said she continued to talk to Brown after the alleged incident, but processing through therapy made her realize it was a sexual assault. She sued Brown for $20 million in 2022, but text messages and voice messages she sent to Brown after the alleged rape came to light led her lawyers to suspect she had not disclosed all the information. They fired her as a customer. Shortly thereafter, a judge dismissed the case citing “lack of prosecution.”

One of Doe’s lawyers, Ariel Mitchell-Kidd, appeared in the document. Mitchell-Kidd has since said she is representing her again, telling People: “I believe what happened to her is 100% true. I feel like I failed her as an attorney by failing to get her comfortable with me to the point where she felt 100% comfortable being open-hearted with me in such a short amount of time .”

In the documentary, Brown’s lawyers said Doe’s claims were fabricated. A representative for Brown did not respond to Yahoo’s request for comment.

An attorney for Combs declined to comment.

A woman named Liziane Gutierrez also appears in the documentary and claims that Brown gave her a black eye in 2016. She claimed she was invited to a party at his Las Vegas hotel room, where cocaine, pills and marijuana were present, and she took a photo that allegedly upset Brown. She sued Brown for assault and they settled the case.

The documentary also recalls Brown’s imprisonment in Paris in 2019 for an alleged aggravated rape and drug offense. The investigation was later dropped and Brown – who maintained his innocence – sued the woman for defamation.

There was also an allegation from 2017 in which a woman claimed she was sexually abused at Brown’s home, although not by Brown. The accuser claimed her phone was stolen, she was given drugs and she was barricaded in a room where she was sexually abused. She sued Brown for creating an unsafe environment. The case was settled out of court.

“Look how long it took R. Kelly to fall”

The documentary uses domestic violence experts and statistics to examine Brown’s long list of problems. It also points out that there were rumors and allegations about Combs and R. Kelly for years before they faced serious criminal charges.

“Look how long it took R. Kelly to fall,” Mitchell-Kidd said in the document. “It wasn’t good enough that we had a video of him” with a 14-year-old minor at his child pornography trial in 2008. “That wouldn’t have worked. It needed things like documentation, (Survivor R. Kelly). It took the power of the media,” she said. (Kelly was convicted of eight counts of sex trafficking in 2022. Months later, he was convicted of child sexual abuse in a second federal trial.)

Sunny Hostin, who hosted ID’s aftershow after the Brown documentary, talked about how surprised she was that people seemed to have forgotten what Brown did to Rihanna.

“It’s been over 15 years since the attack on Rihanna, but I remember it like it was yesterday because I remember being in the courtroom,” she said The view Co-host who is also a lawyer. “But just recently a friend had taken her son and a group of other kids to a Chris Brown concert, and when they came back I was kind of shocked and said to her and the teenagers, Did you know he really, really hurt Rihanna? They had no idea.”
