R. Kelly was sentenced to 30 years in prison on June 29, convicted of multiple sex trafficking charges. But apparently, one of his alleged sex crime victims doesn’t mind that he’ll potentially be behind bars for the rest of his life.
On Monday (July 11), TMZ obtained legal documents showing the embattled R&B singer is engaged to Joycelyn Savage, at least that’s how she introduced herself in a letter to Judge Ann Donnelly prior to sentencing.
“My name is Joycelyn Savage and I’m Robert Kelly’s fiancée,” the letter begins. “I’m not the victim that the government has portrayed me to be. My relationship with Robert is amazing. He’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me. We have a very special connection and are deeply in love. I still support Robert to this day because I love him and will always be here to support him.”

An attorney for Savage’s parents, Gerald Griggs, revealed their daughter never told them about the engagement and found the timing of her announcement strange. Consequently, they have “strong doubts” about the impending marriage.
In 2020, Savage and fellow alleged sex crime victim Azriel Clary angrily defended R. Kelly during an interview with CBS Mornings and were adamant there was nothing inappropriate with their relationships. Their families begged to differ, saying they were simply “brainwashed.”
R. Kelly’s attorney Jennifer Bonjean plans to appeal his sentence. During a post-sentencing press conference, Bonjean called the additional Racketeer Influenced & Corrupt Organization (RICO) act charge “inappropriate.”
“These were not a RICO act violation,” Bonjean said at the 2:36-minute mark. “These were isolated events that happened many years and the government simply tried to plead around the statute of limitations to bring in a RICO charge, which was inappropriate.
“All I can tell you is there was no enterprise. There was no enterprise. It was one man with allegations by a number of women, which doesn’t make it an enterprise, and that is why he’s not guilty of racketeering. Bonjean added she was “excited” about the appeal and “confident” their arguments will persuade the court of appeals.
What a sick sad girl she is. She need professional help seriously.
it is good to see some support. how do you ”brainwash” parents exactly. okay so he fucked a fifteen year old married a young alliyah and showed his kinky side by pissing on some bitch but he had consent throughout and that is what is absolute. 30 years in prison fuck that robert is just a big pussy cat any more music.
You can’t have consent from someone underage when you’re an adult. God damn you’re disgusting.
Don’t mind Evelyn. She’s a pedophile. That’s why she thinks like that.
you can and that can be testified in a court of law. i just think robert shouldn’t have the law being so hard on him for these things an enterprise where are the other suspects why don’t they get media coverage. it is called brown stoning brown stoning is when in most cases organised crime need something on you to blackmail and control you. i think what has happened here has been a lack in cooperation with organised criminals and his music. but then again, what about the girl how does she feel. we all know alliyah is dead but as for this idea of an enterprise or a cult of sorts with all these women coming forward to tell the world about how evil r. kelly is nah i don’t believe that shit.
this clown coulda of had emailmewhenuturn18 dot com and had a fresh 18 years old every day for the last 25 years so he definetly had a sickness he couldnt control i get it I was 17 when ayliah dropped n i wanted to hit so why wouldnt a 27 year old but wait moron it aint that serious, damm shame hope he can still release music though cuz his stuff bangs he is the r in r n b king of it no one even close
As disgusting as it is, he probably gave her a good chunk of money. To quote Dave Chappelle, for that kind of money, rkelly can fart in my dinner
why in the fuck would you have a movie of yourself fucking a 14 year old girl. he was getting brown stoned.
