The relative “believed Orlando was going to assault him.” According to the police, Orlando was staying with his relative “because [Brown] is homeless and [the relative] did not want him to go to a homeless shelter.”
He had been staying with his relative for two weeks. In the past, Brown has been open about his struggles with mental health, addiction, and homelessness.
He turned to Dr. Phil for help several years ago. His former manager told the TV doctor that Brown burned so many bridges no one wants to deal with him. If you can’t help, he does not have a chance,” People reported.
