Shocking Photo of Rihanna After The Assualt Leaked Out From the Police

Photo by Gemma Mary

The Los Angeles police is currently doing an internal investigation to find whoever released the graphic photo of Rihanna with her injuries from the alleged assault by Chris Brown. The photo surfaced on the Internet and has now generated a buzz.

"The photograph has the appearance of one taken during an official domestic violence investigation," says a police statement. "The Los Angeles Police Department takes seriously its duty to maintain the confidentiality of victims of domestic violence."

The photo is a close up of a young woman with her eyes closed. Bruises and cuts could be clearly seen on her forehead, lips and cheeks.

The LAPD began receiving reports of the photograph on the Internet Thursday evening. The department then began an internal investigation and have called on the public's help for "information concerning the unauthorized release of the photograph."

"A violation of this type is considered serious misconduct, with penalties up to and including termination," police said.

It is sad that things like this happen everyday in this world. Knowing that this photo was leaked out without the police knowing, I will not post the photo on my blog. I will say that the photo is disturbing after seeing it. I hope Rihanna recovers from this quickly and return to a normal life.
