ID PRESENTS ITS THIRD ANNUAL NO EXCUSE FOR ABUSE CAMPAIGN THIS OCTOBER, FEATURING THE PREMIERE OF "CHRIS BROWN: A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE"

-- Sunny Hostin Hosting a Discussion with Experts Encouraging Advocacy and Impact Immediately Following the Documentary --

(New York, NY) - This October, Investigation Discovery (ID) proudly presents the third year of its impactful NO EXCUSE FOR ABUSE campaign in alignment with Domestic Violence Awareness Month and in partnership with NO MORE. Throughout the month, this campaign underscores ID's unwavering commitment to shedding light on the multifaceted and complex dynamics of intimate partner violence with resources and programming initiatives, including an in-depth exploration of the issue with the premiere of CHRIS BROWN: A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE, premiering on Sunday, October 27 at 9 pm ET/PT on ID.

Chris Brown has been praised for his innovation and immense talent since he burst onto the music scene. But in 2009, the world was exposed to a much darker side of the pop star when he made headlines for assaulting then-girlfriend, Rihanna. This arrest put a spotlight on Brown and his adult life involving multiple violent incidents, including intimate partner violence, assault charges, and even sexual assault allegations. CHRIS BROWN: A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE charts Chris Brown's past all the way back to his troubled childhood, explores the lasting impact of the cycle of abuse, and poses the question: how does a man with such a violent public record maintain his superstar status? With expert and cultural commentary layered throughout, the documentary provides thoughtful reflections into each survivor's experience and the psychological destruction in the aftermath of their abuse.

Sunny Hostin, The View co-host and 4x Emmy Award-winning journalist, will host a dedicated conversation immediately following the documentary about intimate partner violence. The special will expand on the discussion about domestic violence, providing guidance on recognizing signs of abuse, information on where to find help, and insights on violence prevention from a roundtable of leading experts and advocates, including NO MORE's co-founder Jane Randel.

"Throughout my career, I have always prioritized being a fierce defender of women and children," said Sunny Hostin. "Domestic violence is a very close, personal issue to me as I reflect on my past as a prosecutor of these types of cases, and in my role as a mother and public figure whose actions inform and help shape the next generation. This issue is a prevalent epidemic which knows no socio-economic boundaries, so I am dedicated to expanding and continuing this crucial conversation. The more we know, the better we can help advocate for change as a society."

"ID is dedicated to empowering individuals and communities through its programming and campaigns. Our annual No Excuse for Abuse campaign amplifies this message, providing resources to show survivors and their loved ones that they are not alone and that help is available," said Jason Sarlanis, President of ID. "In our third year, we are creating impactful content and collaborating with champions like Sunny Hostin, who brings her expertise and passion to lead thoughtful and nuanced discussions on domestic violence."

Through the ongoing partnership with NO MORE, ID is dedicated to empowering viewers with the knowledge and tools necessary to identify all forms of domestic violence, find support if needed, and become part of the solution. For comprehensive information and the list of network initiatives, please visit the campaign's website at NoExcuseForAbuse.com. Please join the conversation on social by using #NoExcuseforAbuse.

CHRIS BROWN: A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE is produced for ID by Ample Entertainment.
