The Gucci gown that Rihanna wore at the time Chris Brown allegedly assaulted her on February 8 has a blood mark on it and so it will be used by prosecutors to build case against Chris.

AceShowbiz - While Chris Brown's attorneys are still in talks with prosecutors to score the R 'n' B performer a possible plea deal in a bid to help him getting a probation in lieu of jail time, it has been reported that the Gucci gown Rihanna wore during her alleged altercation with Chris on February 8 will be used by the authorities to build case against Chris. The dress, which has a mark of blood on it, is among the evidence which has been turned over to the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office, E! News reports as being informed by a source close to the investigation.
Providing details on Rihanna's bloodstained Gucci gown, E! News mentions the gown is strapless and costs $11,000. It was provided to Rihanna by Gucci, whom she has a multimillion-dollar endorsement deal with, for Clive Davis' annual Pre-Grammy Gala taking place at the Beverly Hilton prior to her blow-up with Chris.
In the meantime, another new fact has also been brought forward by E! News which claims that the LAPD quickly filed an emergency protective order at Rihanna's request only hours after Chris attacked her. The order, which prevented Chris from having contact with Rihanna, expired five days later.
"It is standard practice for the cops to ask the domestic-violence victim at the scene of the attack whether they would like an emergency protective order keeping the attacker away," Santa Monica-based criminal defense attorney Alec Rose confirms. "If the victim requests it, the EPO is issued and is good for five days. After that time period, the victim would have to notify the District Attorney's Office if they would like the order extended."
An LAPD spokesman, nevertheless, declines to comment on both Rihanna's bloodstained Gucci gown and her request for an emergency protective order. "We don't comment on domestic violence cases," the officer tells E! News.
