Veering off track after a positive start,
Chris Brown is confirmed to have recently failed a drug test.
The "Kiss Kiss" hitmaker attended a
probation progress hearing on Monday (September 24) during which a judge noted
that the R&B singer tested positive for marijuana in a June 18th
urinalysis.
In Brown’s defense, he explained to his
probation officer that he had smoked in California (where he has a medical
marijuana card), but was given the test in Virginia, where marijuana is illegal
under any circumstances.
Getting a break, Judge Patricia Schnegg
concluded that she would not revoke Brown’s probation and said that she had
never initially ordered the singer to undergo mandatory drug testing.
Though Judge Schnegg let Chris off the
hook this time, she did give him a verbal warning, saying, “This is my advice to
you… You are not an average person who can sit in their living room and do what
you wanna do without anybody watching what you do. You are not only in the
public eye, but you are on probation,” adding, “I’m going to caution you that
you should be very mindful.”
Brown was also ordered to meet up with
his probation officer within 72 hours to discuss a difference in community
service hours, as prosecutors are claiming that the 23-year-old has 121 hours
left to complete, but his attorney Mark Geragos believes his star client is
closer to completion than what's being noted.

be very, very brave. Are you in pain? You’re a brave boy. Thank you so much for
coming to see me.”
After the visit, a source at the hospital
told press, “Zakwan is normally very sleepy and in pain, crying, almost giving
up hope, but today, my God, it was as if the leukemia had gone.”
