General Sessions Judge Gloria Dumas dismissed the charge Friday after the counselor reported Winans did not need treatment.
In a statement Monday, Winans said, "To be exonerated of all charges shows the power of trusting in God, and is a wonderful Christmas gift for me and my children."
Winans is a judge on BET's television show "Sunday Best." The four-time Grammy winner has recorded gospel albums with his sister CeCe.
From Christian Post:
A county judge exonerated gospel music star BeBe Winans from the accusation of domestic abuse Friday, dismissing all charges with prejudice.
"This has been a trying year, beginning with the death of my father," said Winans, a member of the noted Winans family.
"Even though this allegation has affected not just me, but also the entire Winans family, my children and certain aspects of my career, I chose to stay quiet because I knew the truth," he added in a statement. "To be exonerated of all charges shows the power of trusting in God, and is a wonderful Christmas gift for me and my children."
On March 11, Winans was arrested on a misdemeanor domestic assault charge and was briefly held at the Davidson County jail after his ex-wife, Debra Winans, accused him of pushing her to the ground during a Feb. 13 "verbal altercation" over "custody issues dealing with their children."
The Winans were married for 16 years before divorcing in 2003 and have a 13-year-old daughter and a 10-year-old son.
