Chris Brown’s father told reporters that his son is “remorseful” over what happened with Rihanna last weekend. Well, God, we’d hope so! “Remorseful” sort of sounds like a crude understatement if you ask us! His father fended off reporters in his Virginia home and said his son isn’t the woman-beating sociopath everyone thinks he is.

According to People via the New York Daily News:

“He’s reflecting on this situation,” Clinton Brown, 44, told People in an interview at his Virginia home. “He’s very remorseful. He’s very concerned about the situation and he wants to make sure that [Rihanna's] okay. Let’s just say he’s home,” the dad said. “He needed some time to get his thoughts together.”

“Get his thoughts together” must be code word for “get his lawyers and story together.” That is going to be one messy, messy March 5th courtdate.
