Bebe Winans Arrested for Domestic Assault

Grammy-winning gospel singer Bebe Winans was arrested and booked on a misdemeanor assault charge on March 11 for allegedly pushing his ex-wife Debra to the ground in front of their two children over Valentine's Day weekend, according to NBC's local WSMV in Nashville.

The purported assault took place during a visit by Winans to his former wife's home in Nashville on February 13. The former couple was arguing over issues related to the custody of their 13-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son, when Winans, 46, became irate and pushed his ex-wife to the ground, according to the report.

"When you're married to someone known all over the world it has serious challenges," Debra Winans told NBC, adding that many Christians do not ask for help when faced with domestic abuse because they feel they should be held to a higher standard.

After being held for a short time at Davidson County Jail in Tennessee, Bebe Winans posted $1000 bond and was released, according to the website, The Smoking Gun.

Re:Bebe Winans Arrested for Domestic Assault

I have to blame this one on Mr. Bebe (if it is true)!  The devil did not make him do it, as I was first inclined to blame it on the devil.  It is time that these men are held responsible for their actions!  There is never an excuse to put your hands on another human being!  Shame on him! 

Delight yourself in The Lord & He will give you the desires of your heart!Ps 37

Bebe Winans

Yeah this is ridiculous. I rolled my eyes when I heard this. I am glad Ms. Winans is doing okay-it seems. I hope he gets the help he needs.

[i]"When you're married to someone known all over the world it has serious
challenges," Debra Winans told NBC, adding that many Christians do not
ask for help when faced with domestic abuse because they feel
they should be held to a higher standard.[/i]
That maybe the most ignorant thing I have ever heard. NO woman wants to tell of being abused. This is why it continues behind closed doors. Tell your priest, your mother, tell the COPS and then get out. If you get hit once you WILL be hit again. [b]Sisters, the frequency and scale of hitting escalates[/b]. God said your body is your temple. Why let someone else defile it????[i]

I believe every word of it! I'm glad you shared your expereince. You should tell all of it, because I'm confident that was not the first time it happened. Who is he to judge?
