R. Kelly reportedly sat eerily still as he learned his fate in New York federal court on Monday (September 27). According to NPR, the embattled R&B singer was found guilty on all charges, including sexual exploitation of a child, bribery, racketeering and sex trafficking involving five victims.
Fourteen underlying acts associated with the racketeering charge padded the case, and the jury found the government had proven 12 of those acts involving the late Aaliyah, a woman who went by Stephanie, Jerhonda Pace, Jane and Stephanie.
Three acts connected to an alleged victim named Sonja couldn’t be proven, but the government only needed proof of two of the racketeering acts for a guilty charge.
Kelly had been on trial in Brooklyn federal court for over a month on one count of racketeering and eight counts of violating the Mann Act, a federal law addressing sex trafficking.
Federal prosecutors in the Eastern District of New York successfully proved R. Kelly had been the head of a criminal enterprise, whose “purpose was to lure girls, boys and women to the R&B singer for his sexual gratification.”
Pace was among the many who testified during the trial. She told the jury Kelly sexually assaulted her when she was 16.
“I went to Rob’s house and he called me a bitch,” Pace said as reported by CNN. “He said I was a silly bitch. He slapped me three times and said if I lied to him again it’s not going to be an open hand next time. He spit in my face and mouth. He choked me during an argument. I had sex with him. I had oral sex with him. I went home and confessed.”
But this is only the beginning for Kelly. Not only does he have to await his sentencing in New York, Kelly will also face a second federal trial on charges of child pornography and obstruction of justice in Illinois.
Kelly is juggling outstanding criminal charges in both Cook County, Illinois and Minnesota as well. In Illinois, he was indicted by the state attorney in February 2019 for aggravated criminal sexual abuse involving four victims (three of them minors) and in Minnesota, he charged with engaging in prostitution with a minor in August in 2019.
R. Kelly faces a possible sentence of 10 years to life in prison. Sentencing in New York is scheduled for May 4.
FREE R KELLY
Free a child rapist am a sick human being are you that stupid or are u a pedophiler too?
You know he’s sitting there in court like,”Damn I should’ve learned how to read so I could’ve made those girls and their parents sign a Non Disclosure Agreement.”
He did make the girls sign NDA’s but a judge tossed them out paving the way for them to testify against him. Try learning the facts first so I don’t have to correct your amateur posts.
The judge toss them out because he didn’t know how to properly write it out and incorporate the necessary portions for a proper defense because when they were offering it to the girls they were offering to little of money for them to take the offer. Try act reading it yourself,dumbass
Wrong again, the girls were underage when they signed the NDA’s so they did not hold up in court. That’s about all I could make out of that terrible sentence structure and grammar. I’d challenge you to a battle of whits but I see you are unarmed.
Both y’all need to STFU. Nobody cares. R Kelly is done. You two bitches arguing about it ain’t going to change a damn thing. Move on to another story and have a nice day.
One letter off and you call that bad sentence and grammar structure. Go eat a bag full of dicks. That’s all you can say in your argument. Seriously, before you try to claim to be an erudite person please when you can’t even fathom the basic concept of Waiver Liability Agreement (means, since the girls were underage the parents would be able to sign and be responsible for those decisions) but the flaw in trying to initiate this is that each state has their own individual laws in regards to WLGs and The other factor to add in was that R. Kelly’s Legal representation didn’t make a solid enough deal for any of them to want to take in the long run that would not be traceable and or create a snowball (a smaller issue in itself that will eventually grow into a larger one down the road i.e His Current Charges). If you were able to somehow remove your head that buried deep inside your own anus, then maybe one day you could possibly grasp the concept of not trying to sound like a presumptuous jackass
Oh and to answer your other issue about my typing it’s called “voice-to-text” meaning it types what I say so it’s going to not catch everything,f***nut…it’s a iphone not a God…. it’s not perfect. Nobody is and I’m pretty sure you’re not either so stop trying to critique someone else’s grammar and etiquette when anyone can pretty do the same thing to you about any and everything if they wanted to. If you’re going to Troll then at least be good at it, I see better trolls on Walmart Toy Shelves.

“English, muthafuka. Do you speak it!?!??”
criminal enterprise? by just him? alone? i know this topic will probably be fire i just think that this isn’t all that bad. i won’t carry on just think he should be free. now to take a computer break.
Waterhead.
Why does this community love to have obvious scumbags go free? As soon as the #Free shit went prevalent, all hope was lost for us.
Should’ve listened to your mind, bro. Your body led you astray…
I’m still gone listen to his music though. ✌️
Good for you weirdo
I hope ur moms, sis, daughters get the same treatment buddy. Bc it runs in ur disgusting peso cycles. At the end of the day, ur “god” is done. Keep playin those old school joints. In a decade ain’t nobody be thinking about him or his music. Like now. Perish with ur savior. I can’t wait until they catch on to you to pedo.
The Bullies hate Child Sex Abuser so I can already imagine them waiting outside Robert’s Jail Cell after he gets back from court and hits the showers, “It’s unbelievable how your body’s calling for me,I can just hear it calling, calling, calling for you, My body’s calling for you”. You reap what you sow…and unfortunately since he doesn’t have any money, I don’t care if are R.Kelly unless you have something else of value that’s what’s going to happen to him.
Be real. These women saw dollars and an idol they worshipped.
Lmaoooo
Bye buddy. You had a good run. Dude lived a life of excess. The finest of everything. Except for all the underaged and forced shit… what an idiot. How did he not know this day would come? Oh well. It’s over now. He’ll get triple digit time. He’s be better off paying someone to kill him quickly inside.
They’re totally gonna use his gross asshole like a vagina #ew
Im sure all the negative comment people loved Kelly’s music. A bunch of flip flopping bandwagon riders
Nope, never did cuz he was an Aaron Hall rip-off.
Justice would be all involved including parents that took money. They traffic their children as well. Either hold all accountable or none. Everybody turning on one for their own benefit don’t sit right. Charge all or none
it’s just these high profile USA black people they love to bring down with such flamboyance. Nothing like having a “whte ally” in your corner huh? Kobe gone Cosby disgraced OJ a psycho killer lol now R Kelly convicted of child slavery and not being publicly thug enough to reach the youth. It’s a set up and the more white allies you have the less black people doing anything but ball wash and cheer lead
Cosby wasn’t ever found not guilty dummy. R. Kelly been found with child porn and got off on a technicality in the past and was fucking Aaliyah when she was 14 and married her at 15, not to mention all the other fucked up shit he did with kids. With all the great and amazing black role models out there, you think these the types of people the black community should support??? You need to pray to God and ask for forgiveness you weirdo.
God doesn’t exist. Not sure what you’re blabbing about. I just watch TV like everyone else. You want to think R Kelly is some sex monster go ahead. I don’t see it.
Nice try on Cosby. He was tried illegally and his constitutional rights were violated.
Wtf is with all the pedo sympathizers in the comments?? Yall need your electronic devices checked by the feds, no real man defends a pedophile
yeah right. enough with the pedo talk. when i hear he’s grabbing up young boys like a priest then you can spread that around. You see a bit eager to use a word we know doesn’t fit. I personally don’t go for the sweet little 16 type but those who do aren’t pedos.
Ok we know now why you defending a child molestor……you’re one too. Karma is gonna catch up with you sicko
You sound like a deranged alphabet person. Sexual maturity is a fact of life. It’s only been in the last 50 years that young women from 16-18 haven’t been considered fair game. Highly doubt anyone forced these girls to do anything against their or their family will.
He was fucking girls under 16 too, 12,13,14 year olds. I bet you think that’s ok too? Groupie weirdo, I bet you like pissing on your sheets too?
yeah right we all know it’s a set up. like to see what’s on your phone. probably a lot of catholic priest kiddie porn the way you are so mad R Kells got some trim from Aaliyah. You boy loving simps are a disgrace

In prison he’ll be more like “AAAAAAAARRRRGGH!” Kelly am I right!!?!
what do you think they call them “proud boys” for – all these online obsessed dudes got grabbed up as kids and now they hate black men in particular. hate our confidence in ourselves. go hate the priest who molested you proud boy creeps.
He said he was broke which means he can’t pay for protection which means he will get his dirty ass buggered in jail. He should call Lord Jamar because that guy likes defending rapists.
more love from your white allies people. did you like that song? beautiful huh? He’s a rapist. LOL
