News: Why na? Chris Brown flown to DC with other prisoners in Con Air

I don't like the way they are trying to beat this guy
completely down. Chris Brown's legal team's last
ditch effort to transport him personally to
Washington D.C. for his misdemeanor assault trial
has been denied and Chris is headed to D.C. on
Con Air...a prisoner aircraft...with other criminals
TMZ reports...

Chris Brown has just been picked up by federal
marshals on what will be one of the longest
journeys across the country since the prop plane
era ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected with the case tell us Chris is
on his way to a federal holding facility in San
Bernardino to begin his long trip to Washington
D.C. where he will stand trial for assault.
Later today Chris will board a airplane -- guarded
by U.S. Marshals and appropriately restrained --
but the flight is NOT a non-stop. In fact, we're
told there are so many stops he probably won't
get there until Sunday.

We're told all of these flights go through
Oklahoma, with stops along the way to pick up
other prisoners.

Chris will be in D.C. for a hearing Monday where
his lawyer, Mark Geragos, will try to get the
charges dismissed because he believes
prosecutors inappropriately used the grand jury to
gain an unfair advantage in the criminal case.

Now here's the thing. If Geragos loses, Chris will
sit in a D.C. jail facility until his D.C. trial kicks off
on April 17.
