Who couldn't see that coming? I'm interested in seeing her parent's next press conference.
facts on facts on stack of facts lol
Better late than never but gawd damn where were these people years ago and just curious how many of these staffers were female? They must have had q change of heart when reminded they could be hit as accomplices
Naw. Not true. Many people told him to cut that shit out. He got rid of them. Nigga had enough money make his own world and anybody who did not follow his rules was fired.
1. This is the most important thing of all, he committed illegal acts of sexual exploitation of minors and stupidly recorded himself doing these activities. He used his wealth with the help of his very complicit inner circle to help recruit girls for him. He prowled for underage girls for years around the Hyde Park area of Chicago as well as other high shools around the metro area. He paid off families of the girls with money and gifts with fame for their daughters. Most families had to know the deal. A few had to be naive thinking their daughter was going to get tutored and set up for success in the record industry. Instead they become a part of his sex harem.
2. He went to trial before and was found not guilty. Since he did not, could not, or probably did not even want to change his behavior he should have bounced to another country. He was either too arrogant or too slow maybe both to even make a smart decision to get lost and fall off the grid. He continued his risky illegal behavior and he is where he is now. His lifestyle caught up with him and like a caught perp he is crying out that people are out to kill him. Nah the man made deliberate bad choices.

I’m not mad at how you feel, you can feel however you want, i’m just telling you your “he can’t have conversations with GROWN WOMEN and he isn’t intelligent” reasoning behind him liking young girls is bullshit and I pointed at examples of why it is. He’s a grown man that went through this samething years ago and somehow got a second chance to clean up his act and go on with his life, he CHOSE to continue doing the same shit so now he is dealing with the consequences
Let me state this again.
I hated R Kelly for 20 years behind this shit. I threw endless stones at R Kelly.
Once I looked into his personal history, I saw WHY he was so fucked up. Yes, he molested little girls. BUT his family molested him when he was a little boy.
It's even possible that the molestation in his lineage started with a slave owner on a plantation raping one of his ancestors, and the cycle kept going right down to him.
I'm not arguing that he should be exonerated or given a pass. I'm saying I feel bad for the dude because although he's musically talented, his growth was stunted in a lot of other areas, including sex. Dude got his first bank account at 52. I got my first account when I was in high school and my folks didn't molest me. He was enabled because of the fame and money and the opportunists around him who didn't really give a fuck about him. Nobody trained that dude on how to be a responsible, adult man. He went from being a high school dropout (because he couldn't read or pass classes) to being rich and enabled to live out his wildest sexual fantasies as a teenager, AFTER being introduced to sex through a form of rape BY his family members . He never grew out of being a teenager mentally. All of this was a recipe for disaster, hence, his current state now.
AGAIN, I'm not saying he should be let off the hook. He had a chance, a BIG chance to change his life after the first trial, and that dumb ass fool STILL continued to do the same shit. There are 13 year olds that know better than that. So that goes to show just how fucked up he is in the head.
Yep.
A few chicks I know from Chi told me he’d post up at the Rock N Roll McDonald’s on weekend nights spittin at the young girls; mind you this was mid-90s when he was a superstar and wag adult enough to know the shit was wrong and illegal. Sick.

R. Kelly pleads not guilty, denied bail in sweeping sex-crime prosecution
Two women who say they’re living with Kelly attended his arraignment on Tuesday and sat in the front row.

CHICAGO — R. Kelly pleaded not guilty on Tuesday to a slew of federal sex-assault charges he faces in Illinois as a judge ordered him held without bond.
The R&B star was arrested last week in Chicago and hit with 18 charges in two cities, a 13-count indictment in Chicago and a five-count indictment New York. Kelly has not yet faced a judge on the New York charges.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Angel Krull said Kelly is a flight risk who could tamper with witnesses.
"The risk for obstruction is real and ongoing,” Krull told U.S. District Court Judge Harry Leinenweber, arguing that “no release conditions can mitigate these dangers.”
Leinenweber said charges against Kelly are so serious, they require a presumption of detention.
After the hearing, defense lawyer Steven Greenberg insisted his client is not a flight risk, saying he's never missed a court date and doesn't even hold a passport.
"Obviously we’re disappointed the judge wouldn’t let him out today," Greenberg told reporters. "We thought we'd get him out but the judge saw it otherwise and we respect his ruling."
The singer is being kept apart from the rest of the jail population.
“He’s in 24-a-day solidarity confinement essentially, it’s the hole," Greenberg said. "Because that's the safest place for them to house him, it’s not his fault, no TV, no anything, no contact with other people. It’s largely inhumane. "
Kelly, already facing state sexual abuse charges in Illinois, allegedly took underage girls across state lines for sex, according to the federal indictments unsealed in New York and Chicago on Friday.
Two women who have said they are living with Kelly attended his arraignment on Tuesday and sat in the front row. Azriel Clary and Joycelyn Savage have defended Kelly in the past from accusations that they have been brainwashed.
Savage and Clary sat in the front row, along with some of Kelly’s friends and family. They left the courthouse arm-in-arm and declined to answer questions from reporters.
“These young women have been traumatized and brainwashed for years. It is going to take them a while to realize how they have been victimized and what the truth really is," said Michael Avenatti, a lawyer representing Clary's parents.
Azriel Clary and Joycelyn Savage, supporters of R. Kelly, leave after his arraignment at the Dirksen Federal Building in Chicago on July 16, 2019.
The women appeared together on CBS in March and both said they're in a relationship with the singer. "We live with him, and we're in a relationship with him, we just said it," Clary said.
Kelly said in the fiery interview with Gayle King that "it's almost — it's like they're my girlfriends."
The 52-year-old R&B star, whose real name is Robert Kelly, and two of his employees are accused of recruiting women and girls to engage in illegal sexual activity with the performer and paid victims and witnesses to cover up his crimes.
An indictment unsealed Friday in the Eastern District of New York includes five criminal counts, including for racketeering, transporting underage girls for sex, and sexual exploitation of a child. The accusations go back as far as the late 1990s.
Once Kelly had convinced victims to be with him, they "were not permitted to leave their room without receiving permission from Kelly, including to eat or go to the bathroom," according to court papers.
Victims were also told to keep their heads down, to avoid eye contact with other men among other rules according to the New York indictment, which involves five unidentified victims.
Two of those victims in the New York case were 16 and another one was under 18, authorities said.
The illicit acts happened in New York, Illinois, Connecticut and California, according to federal prosecutors in New York.
"Kelly and the other members of the enterprise traveled throughout the United States and abroad to perform at concert venues, to promote the R. Kelly brand and to recruit women and girls to engage in illegal sexual activity," the New York indictment says.
It also alleges he engaged in "sexual activity with girls under 18 years old, engaging in and facilitating sexual activity without disclosing a sexually transmitted disease Kelly had contracted and producing child pornography."
He has not yet faced a judge on the New York charges.
In Chicago, he was hit with 13 federal charges, including for sexual exploitation of children and possession of child pornography.
Authorities in Chicago accused Kelly of engaging in sex acts with five minors who he met between 1996 and 1999, according to an unsealed indictment.
Kelly gave $30,000 to the father of one of the victims and transferred title of a GMC Yukon Denali to that child, according to the Chicago indictment.

Probably on suicide watch as we speak..tying the bed sheet around his neck like "My mind's telling me noooooo..."
Kellz is outta here for reals.
He better make another trapped in the closet skit
Last line of the last verse:"..And the verdict was GUILTY..GUILTY..GUILTY..."
I'm guessing the hush money was running out. I can't believe all these people are suddenly feeling guilty about what's been going for the last 20+ years. A lot of these people had copies of those tapes, but didn't feel the need to turn them over, until now (gee I wonder why?).
I know there's been a few reports about motherfuckers co-signing his bullshit, until they found out that he was fucking their nieces, daughters, etc., but as we saw they still didn't call the cops on his ass.
