LAPD Investigates Leaked Photos Of Rihanna's Battered Face

Share     



A disturbing photo of Rihanna or a Rihanna look-a-like with bruises, a swollen lip and a myriad of other battle wounds has been swiftly making its way through the blogosphere.

The photo was allegedly taken right after the domestic dispute between Rihanna and Chris Brown on Feb. 8th, with a source at E! News claiming the picture (click any thumbnail to go to the gallery, and the photo is on the second gallery page) was snapped by a detective at Hancock Park right when the cops arrived.

While the Los Angeles Police Department will not confirm or deny this is Rihanna, they are up in arms that an unauthorized photo has been released for public viewing, and have launched an internal investigation.

The LAPD would like anyone with insider information as to how this photo was leaked to contact them immediately.

Thank you so much for not posting that picture of her. It's completely exploitative and just plain wrong.

The leaked photo has a tattoo on the left collarbone of the subject. I don't see any photos of Rihanna with a tattoo there, unless it's brand new. Something to the effect of XI - IV.

if you look at the picture at the top of this post you can just about make out the tattoo

Agree on the no picture on the front--I don't watch tv or check tmz and I am really disturbed and personally upset by that picture, too much remembrance and too very sad--she needs to have some privacy now.

I am aghast this site chose to publish the leaked picture. Other media outlets are respecting the privacy of those involved and the seriousness of this situation. I suppose I could be grateful the picture was not the main one for this article...but I really don't think it should have been used at all.

Rihanna,

I hope you get better soon. I know this must be extra hard with press trying to be all in your face and dont care that you need time to heal physically and emotionally. I and all your fans support you and are here with you.

But like they say, what dont kill you makes you stronger... So maybe down the road you can write a song about this because plenty of women have been in your shoes and I dont think any other singer has written a song like that.

Get well soon,
Danielle fr. Seattle,WA
