Troubled R&B and hip-hop star, Chris Brown is being restrained and transferred to Washington, D.C. while under the custody of U.S. marshals.
On Wednesday, April 2nd, the singer was picked up from jail in Los Angeles to be escorted to a facility in San Bernardino. He’ll be held there prior to his journey to the capital, where he’s facing a trial related to a fight outside a hotel in October 2013.
In March the star violated his probation related to a 2009 assault conviction and was thus jailed.
According to TMZ.com, he should be boarding a plane on Thursday, April 3rd. The flight won’t be a direct flight, but with numerous stops to pick up other prisoners from Oklahoma, etc.
TMZ.com reports that they won’t be in D.C. before Sunday, April 6th.

Mark Geragos, the singer’s lawyer, is due to appear before a D.C. judge on Monday, April 7th. He hopes to have his client’s charges dropped ahead of the trial on April 17th.
Geragos had also asked the court to have Brown released ahead of the trial into his custody so that they could prepare for the trial and travel together to Washington.
Brown will remain in jail until the day of court if the request is denied.
His problems escalated in March when the star was asked to attend a rehabilitation facility in Malibu. He was in a clinic seeking court-ordered anger management treatment.
