Bobby Brown Faces Cocaine Charges

It looks like the prerogative of Bobby Brown is to snort cocaine.

Unfortunately for this washed up singer and father, Massachusetts police aren't cool with that.

The ex-husband of Whitney Houston will appear in in a Boston area court on February 19 for a closed-door clerk's hearing on whether he should be charged with possession of cocaine or not.

The show-cause hearing stems from an incident in Brockton, MA on December 1 when authorities were called to a hotel for a report of a disturbance.

According to state police spokesman Sgt. Robert Bousquet, when state police arrived at the hotel, troopers spoke with Brown. Allegedly, drugs were confiscated on the scene and the singer actually asked the trooper if he could "use discretion" and not charge him.

Shockingly, the cop did not comply.
