Bail was set at $250,000 for singer Chris Brown on Tuesday evening five times the typical amount that would set for the charge of assault with a deadly weapon. Browns criminal past isn't a good look for this latest incident in which Brown could face up to 18 years in prison for if convicted. All indications point to the LAPD planning to go after Brown. A criminologist and nearly a dozen officers were dispatched to Browns house to search the property and gather statements from Witnesses.
