Chris Brown may have claimed on YouTube that he "ain't no monster," but his guilty plea certainly suggests the contrary. Brown pled guilty to one felony count of assault against his ex-girlfriend, Rihanna. Brown entered the plea as the pre-trial process was set to begin, the Associated Press reports. Brown's lawyer also said that the plea deal involves "five years of probation and six months of community labor." It appears he will be able to serve out the sentence in his home state of Virginia, despite the assault having occurred in Los Angeles.
