Rapper Pleads No Contest in Assault Case
By Andrew Blankstein, Times Staff Writer
The rapper accused of stabbing a man at the 2004 Vibe Awards pleaded no contest to an assault charge in a plea deal made public Monday.
David Darnell Brown, 24, who records under the name Young Buck, had faced assault and attempted murder charges in connection with the Nov. 15, 2004, stabbing of 26-year-old Jimmy James Johnson.
Under the agreement between prosecutors and Brown's attorney, the rapper receives a sentence of three years' probation and must serve 80 hours of community service.
Brown was accused of stabbing Johnson, a parolee from Los Angeles, during a confrontation just before rap star and record producer Dr. Dre was to receive a lifetime achievement award at the ceremony honoring hip-hop music.
According to police, Johnson made his way to the front-row table of Dr. Dre, whose real name is Andre Young, and punched him in the face after requesting an autograph.
That attack set off a chair-throwing brawl that spread through the crowd. Brown allegedly stabbed Johnson during the melee and fled from the Barker Hangar at Santa Monica Airport, where the ceremony was being held.

slap on the wrist, anyone? :D
good shit.
-
I wouldn't have thought they'd let him off that easy.
-
especially since he stabbed someone.. the other guy got a year and he threw one punch.. lol
-
why didn't Dre just stab him instead and claim self defense?
-
stabbed the man ON CAMERA !!!! my niggaz stab cats and get 7 years with barely any evidence, just goes to show you what money can do in America.

Sniiiiiiiiiiitch

He was stunned from being sucker punched. :D
And I doubt Dre had a blade on him.
-

LOL so true man.
-
young buck used a fork, and the sweat on the fork didnt match his dna or something
-
the stab wound was from a knife not a fork... somebody probably did it when they dragged him behind the curtain

Damn that's fucked up.

1st of all, it was clear it was a blade in the video footage. You don't need no damm DNA test when it's on camera. It's assault with a deadly weopen, period. Only way to get out of it is to A) Snitch or B) Make a deal with them. That deal includes a WHOLE lot of money, so Young Buck better step it up on the next album because it looks like he owes 50 a good amount of c-notes.

if he gets off those gun charges in NY aswell then it´s not hard to figure out why. but if his lawyers makes those charges "dissapear" Buck will have to stop goin out partying and stop carrying guns coz even if he cooperates with the prosecutos there´s only so many times they can let him go with a slap on the wrist.

Video footage ain't allowed to prove that someone did something because of what people can do with computers this days.
