Argentina Court Indicts Justin Bieber Over Assault Allegations

This isn’t JB’s first run-in with the law overseas. On his same trip three years ago, he issued an apology for defiling the Argentine flag on stage and got into trouble for allegedly spraying graffiti in Brazil and Colombia as well, USA Today reports.
Argentina I do love you. It is in fact one of my favorite places to tour. I wish this was not the case. My lawyers say it is what it is.

The chart-topper professed his love for Argentina back in May, but as he prepares to kick off the South American-leg of his Purpose tour in February, the country of “unity and freedom” is noticeably missing on his schedule.
