Chris Brown was sentenced by a judge on Tuesday to five years’ probation and six months’ community labor for the beating of Rihanna and ordered the R&B singer to stay away from his former girlfriend for the next five years.

He could be sent to state prison if he violated any terms of his sentence, including an order to stay 100 yards away from Rihanna unless they’re attending music industry events.

During the sentencing, it was revealed that the couple has a history of violent incidents. The first happened about three months before the February beating while the couple was traveling in Europe; Rihanna slapped Brown during an argument, and he shoved her into a wall. In the second instance, Brown allegedly broke the front and passenger side windows on a Range Rover they were driving while visiting Barbados, Rihanna’s home country. Neither attack was reported

The police chief in Richmond, where Brown will serve his sentence, will oversee his community labor.

Brown, 20, will perform physical labor instead of community service, such as mentoring young people, according to the judge. He will also undergo a year of domestic violence counseling.

Rihanna was not present during the sentencing.
