Bobby Brown back in jail submitted by: Isaac, Lisa D. source: Associated Press Date: February 21, 2004 DECATUR, Georgia -- Singer Bobby Brown is back in jail for violating his probation on a prior drunken driving conviction. Brown, 35, was being held Saturday without bond at the DeKalb County Jail, sheriff's spokeswoman Mikki Jones said. He was taken into custody after appearing before a judge Friday, but officials could not confirm exactly what Brown had done to violate his probation. He was expected to remain jailed until a court hearing on Friday. The judge's ruling may have been related to Brown's charge of misdemeanor battery in December, following an argument with his wife, singer Whitney Houston. A preliminary hearing in that case was set for May 5. Brown left the R&B group New Edition in the late 1980s for a solo career. He has been on probation since January 2003, when he was convicted of a 1996 drunken driving incident. Brown had been ordered to remain on probation until February 17, 2005. Brown's hits include "My Prerogative" and "Every Little Step." Site design by: Dolphin Webpage Designs © 1996-2004
