BeBe Winans: Gospel Singer Arrested For Domestic Assault

Just one day before his good friend Oprah Winfrey's domestic violence special, gospel singer BeBe Winans was booked on a domestic violence accusation for allegedly shoving his ex-wife Debra D. Winans to the ground during an argument last month.

Court filings that were first obtained by TheSmokingGun.com indicate that the gospel balladeer had a "verbal altercation" with his ex-wife on Feb. 13 about "custody issues dealing with their children."

The pre-Valentine's Day incident took place at his ex's Nashville home, where the 46-year-old singer had driven to pick up his children.

The filing also claims: "The victim was telling the defendant of issues with the children when he became irate. The defendant then pushed the victim to the ground. The victim was in fear of bodily injury."

Winans was arrested on March 11 on a misdemeanor domestic assault charge.

The Grammy-winner was briefly held at the Davidson County jail before posting $1000 bond.

Winans released six solo CDs following his success as a part of the duo BeBe & CeCe alongside his sister CeCe Winans.

The brother-sister duo has recently reunited and had been recording a comeback CD.

Winans, who had a stint on Broadway as Harpo in 'The Color Purple,' is currently a judge on the BET reality series 'Sunday Best,' which is currently taping its new season in Atlanta.

A rep for BET's 'Sunday Best' was unable to be reached for comment at press time.

Wow...interesting.

Well, women have been campaigning for equal rights for a while now. Gotta take the good with the bad.

Horrible joke, I know. Pray for me.

I'll be in prayer about the situation.

When our children are involved emotions can run deep. We don't know the history of this couple before or after their divorce.

I had it out with my ex today over our girls and I let him have it, tears, bad words and all. Yes bad words. (I don't say that for approval or criticism, I'm just saying it cause it happened)
After holding things in for 10 years it just got to a breaking point. It cracked the other day but it broke today and I got it all out. At least I think that's all.

He was telling me he and his wife were going to come to my house and I told him they ain't coming to my house. I told him he's not welcome in my house and if he comes I'll call the police. He said I can call who I want to call but he's coming. But by the time I got done with him he was not talking about coming to my house but trying to think of a place we could meet. I let him know that I meant what I said that he wasn't gonna bogart his way into my house.

By the time I got done with him he was saying something he's never said to me, "I'm sorry. I'm gonna do better. I'm gonna do everything I can to make it better". I was thinking , "yeah right. we'll see". Although I didn't say it out loud.

I just believe that we are in the time and season where God is bringing it all to the surface, the good, the bad and the ugly, the hidden things, the things we've overlooked, ignored, not wanted to deal with. But if we are going to be saved, God has to REVEAL IT, DEAL WITH IT, and HEAL IT, FOR THE SAVING OF OUR SOULS. Not for gossip or to wag our heads at each other, or criticize each other (not saying anybody is doing that) But He wants us saved, FREE, HEALED and available for HIS USE.

I believe that God would rather have us exposed now, hurt now, embarrassed now, for the saving of our souls than to have us suffer an eternal loss.

You may have went off with your mouth, but you kept your hands to yourself.... If he was weak.... he would have grabbed you by the neck... I don't know what is it with men and women's necks . May be I should ask Krazeeboi. I am glad he heard you and understood... you was not giving in to his mess.

Be Be just push... he didn't beat hi ex-wife, like somebody I know,... that's a big different... MY nephew was attacked by his ex-girlfriend... he let this ghetto girl beat on him in front of his kids, because he didn't want to go to jail. She was charged and arrested for battery and child abuse, because she throw his two years old son at him after the attack... It goes both way...

BeBe Winans - Domestic Violence?

I was shocked to hear the media attention given to the so-called domestic violence between BeBe and his ex-wife. What I heard was proof of the lack of credibility in our media system. BeBe was never arrested for a domestic violence situation.
Friends, I can testify from an up close position that the claim that BeBe’s ex-wife has made that he battered her is the biggest lie I have ever heard.

I was involved (in prayer) with the situation and I know for a fact that the accusation made against BeBe is nothing more than a fabricated story made up by a very hurt and confused woman. This woman has been after BeBe’s credibility for a long time. Before I met BeBe she approached me with things against this brother but the Lord quickly showed me that she was not stable. Pray for her, she has to be tormented to go as far as she went this time.

This so-called domestic violence case went before a judge a few weeks ago. It was so evident that BeBe’s ex-wife was sabotaging him that the judge harshly rebuked her and signed a trespass warrant against her on BeBe’s behalf.

I do not usually get involved in matters like this but it infuriates me to know that this woman has manipulated the media for revenge against her husband. After six years she needs to let this man go. Everybody knows that Chris Brown’s situation is hot off the press. I cannot believe people would even compare BeBe’s situation.

Domestic violence is a serious issue and needs to be addressed. But I am a witness, from behind the scenes, that BeBe’s situation should not be connected. You have to wonder why this woman would take this issue to the media and claim to be helping others that have been abuse. It also brings the question to mind…”How many women would take advantage of the domestic violence situation in the air and turn it around to make innocent men victims through false accusation?” Discernment is of utmost importance. Thank God for the judge that discerned what was really going on in the Winan’s case.

My concern is how quick people tear folk down before they find out the truth. Gossip is a demon and slander is a strongman. Church, we need to seek God and pray? Pray for the women that are in abusive situations and also pray for the good men that have been or will be sabotaged concerning the matter.
We must pray for Deborah Winan’s deliverance! Pray for the children! Pray for Mother Winans as she is standing in the gap for Pop Winan’s healing from a stroke and several heart attacks. This is nothing but a distraction. And finally, pray for Be Be Winan’s ministry, God is doing great things in this man. I cannot vouch for any man’s soul but I know where to find Be Be Winans at 5:00 am in the morning, and it is not beating up his ex-wife…he is on the wall commanding the morning. I am a witness!
There is more than one side to a situation, this is my perspective. Shout back at me about it!

Thank You anointed.... It didn't make too much sense to me... The truth must come out.... If his ex-wife lying.... he need to press charges against her and sue ... And even if he push her, it is not enough to be called it domestic violence...

And still, God is exposing the ugly and the sin, even when it's in a different place than what people thought.
This actually encourages me today because my head has been hurting today and the other day and I have caught myself clenching my teeth (worry) concerning my ex and my girls. I keep reminding myself of many dreams that God has shown me in which my ex would not succeed at hurting me in any way (including my girls) and that God would always protect me and cover me. But I recognized the headache today had migraine tendencies. So I must trust God with my girls and listen closely to God concerning my situation. But as was shared by Kim Daniels, God will expose the truth and He will protect those who trust in Him. That includes me.
