At Risk: Stars Who Went to Rehab or Jail in 2012

Celebs who either sought treatment, bail money or both.

Bobby Brown - Every year is full of celebrity antics, especially when it comes to run-ins with the law and rehab counselors...and this year was no different (just ask Katt Williams). Here's a look at the stars whose hands were either cuffed for a trip to jail or who surrendered to help for an addiction in 2012. Bobby Brown went to both jail and rehab this year. In October, after being stopped for a DUI, the singer agreed to check himself into an alcohol treatment program. Two months later Brown was arrested, again, for another DUI.  (Photo: WENN.com)
