Judge dismisses assault charge against gospel singer
A judge gave gospel singer BeBe Winans an early Christmas present. The singer was cleared of any wrongdoing regarding a domestic abuse charge.
The singer was accused of assaulting his wife by shoving her to the ground. However, a judge dismissed all charges Dec. 4. Winans released a statement that said “Even though this allegation has affected not just me, but also the entire Winans family, my children and certain aspects of my career, I chose to stay quiet because I knew the truth. To be exonerated of all charges shows the power of trusting in God, and is a wonderful Christmas gift for me and my children.”
I think the allegations were a stain on Winans reputation because he was a renowned gospel singer. Even Oprah Winfrey distanced herself from the singer. Winans was scheduled to appear on her show, but Winfrey canceled his appearance due to the pending abuse allegations.
