But the LAPD ain't happy about it, releasing this statement:

The unauthorized release of a domestic violence photograph immediately

generated an internal investigation.

At about 7 p.m. on February 19, 2009, the Los Angeles Police Department Media Relations

Section began receiving numerous inquiries about the release of a photograph associated with a

domestic violence incident that occurred on February 8, 2009, involving entertainer Chris

Brown. The photograph appeared on an entertainment website. The photograph has the

appearance of one taken during an official Domestic Violence investigation.

The Los Angeles Police Department takes seriously its duty to maintain the confidentiality of

victims of domestic violence.

The Department launched an immediate internal investigation and subsequently filed a personnel

complaint.

A violation of this type is considered serious misconduct, with penalties up to and including

termination.
