Bobby Brown was jailed for eight days and banned from driving for a year on Friday when he finally faced drink drive charges from 1996. The singer skipped the charges at the time, but was forced to reface them when he was arrested for new driving offences in Atlanta last month. He didn’t help his cause by breaking his bail conditions by leaving Georgia to attend the American Music Awards last week. After hearing his sentence, which also included 240 hours of community service, $2,000 in fines and two years probation, Brown was taken straight into custody.
