According to Livesteez, The Don, at 72, was just popped for beating his chick’s @ss at his crib in Van Nuys, CA and is facing serious time:

Don Cornelius, former host of “Soul Train,” has been charged in connection with two domestic incidents involving his wife last month by the Los Angeles city attorney. Cornelius was charged with spousal battery, assault with a deadly weapon and dissuading a witness from making a police report, all misdemeanors, city attorney spokesman Frank Mateljan said Friday. The married 72-year-old producer was taken to jail last month after police were called to his Hollywood Hills home following a report of domestic dispute, The Assoicated Press is reporting. Cornelius was released on $50,000 bail. He could face up to one year in prison for each of the five misdemeanor charges.

The Don is stuck in a time when you would be able to hit that pipe all night, whoop some tail in a crack stuper, then wake up the next day like nothing happened. It’s a new day, so get it together, old man. SMH

According to TMZ, The Don got “popped” messing around with one of his Nicole Simpson’s:

Don Cornelius of “Soul Train” was arrested last night on felony domestic violence. It went down on Mulholland Drive in L.A. in the early evening. Someone called from Cornelius’ home and LAPD responded to a “domestic dispute.” After arriving on scene, they arrested 72-year-old Cornelius on charges of felony domestic violence. He was taken to the LAPD jail in Van Nuys where his bail was set at $50,000. He was released at 5 AM. Cornelius is married to Victoria although the identity of the victim has not been released. The victim was not taken to the hospital and injuries are unknown.

The Don is from another time. He is too damn decrepit and feeble to be scrapping up those young tenders he’s been swirling around with.  SMH
