Remember when Terrence Howard defended Chris Brown, then took it back? Well, not to say that he was lying in his retraction, BUT….could he have been defending Chris because he was in the same situation himself 7 years ago?

The Smoking Gun recently posted Terrence Howard’s mugshot and police report, which states that not only was he arrested for assaulting his wife back in 2001, but he admitted to it. Though you can go to the site to see the full report, here’s part of TSG’s summary below:

According to a Whitemarsh Police Department report, after Howard and Lori McCommas argued on the phone, the actor warned, “Don’t disrespect me by hanging up on me or I’ll come over and hurt you.” McCommas then “hung up and contacted 911 fearing Howard was serious.” While McCommas was speaking with a police dispatcher, Howard “showed up at the victim’s residence and began breaking the door down.” McCommas ran to the rear of the house and into the backyard. Howard then “broke the front door down and ran through the screen door in the kitchen. Howard then grabbed the victim’s left arm and punched her twice with a closed fist in the left side of the face.” The attack was broken up by Howard’s brother, who responded to McCommas’s house after he “saw Howard storm out of their house to go to the victim’s house.” When a Whitemarsh cop responded to the scene, Howard admitted, “I broke the door down and hit my wife.”

Maybe Howard recognized the error of his ways, and figured Chris eventually would as well? Who knows. But what a curious situation.
