His tagline was: “Love, peace and soul,” but Soul Train’s most prolific emcee, Don Cornelius – and the hippest dude on any music show anywhere – apparently wasn’t filled with love or peace when police showed at his residence in October for what is labeled a domestic violence situation.
Cornelius was charged with three counts of spousal battery, one count of dissuading a witness from reporting to police, and a count of assault with a deadly weapon. Each count carries a maximum of one year in jail. The 72-year-old Cornelius, who entered his plea just two days ago, is free on bail.
