Nearly 10 months after a jury found R. Kelly guilty on one charge of racketeering and eight counts of violations of the Mann Act (a sex trafficking law), the embattled R&B legend has learned he’ll have to face 30 years behind bars for the crimes.
More inside:
While Kelly’s defense attorneys pleaded with the judge for the disgraced star to serve 10 or fewer years after the conviction, prosecutors – who asked for the equivalent of a life sentence – prevailed according to news from the US Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York revealed Wednesday (June 29).
During the sentencing, the court heard impact statements from seven of Kelly’s victims.
“It’s been 23 years since we knew each other, and you’ve victimized a lot of girls since then,” said one of the speakers identified as “Jane Doe.” “Now it’s your turn to have your freedom taken from you.”
The 55-year-old did have supporters remarks lending remarks as well. Among them was Joycelyn Savage, who was formerly known as one of the young girls he abused.
“Robert and I are deeply in love and it breaks my heart that the government has created a narrative that I’m a victim,” Savage wrote in a letter. “I’m a grown woman, and can speak for myself which is why I wanted to provide this letter to the court.”
Although Kelly is being held at a federal detention facility in Brooklyn he is expected to be moved back to Chicago where he faces another federal trial in August on charges of child pornography and obstruction.
Chile! So Steven Tyler gets off free for attempted murder to that underage girl right? The same girl he was r a/p:ing and impregnating a 15 yr old then forced into an abortion. Smh Hollywood is satans playground.
Boo hoo, deal with it. He should have gotten off scot-free as it was only black children that he was doing this to.
This isn’t about race you sick disturbed p edo go back to hell demon!

@Jax you’re a pathetic waste of life. Stop füçking your dad and get a job.
Sorry again. I’m off my meds today. I hate most lazy black people, apart from the great Anthony Johnson (colonist). The Darkies must be so dumb that they allowed themselves to be freeloading slaves for 400 years, and it took another great white man, President Abraham Lincoln, to free the idiots. I admire BLM because all they did for the black community was take their money and never give it back, and they burned down black-owned businesses, leaving them with nothing.
Plz forgive fancy! Agian off my meds! Remember l have a l ds and do crack herion and meth on a daily basis and come online to thatghettojuice to argue with myself! smh this is why us whites get assaulted when we r young!

Awww bless, the FAKE Ashy CLOWN is using my profile picture under a different name to try and make out I’m the troll when we all know the truth, and that is that the other Fancy BISH is really a CLOWN troll having to make up fake accounts under different names to have someone agree with it.
You don’t need to steal my profile picture to make a point now looool 🤣🤣I love blacks! I just state the truth about those bird s h I t colored dying breed of toliet colored honkey apés and yes I’m white myself but facts are facts. Honkey apès are weaker than the superior B** race. I just get triggered anytime I finish shooting up 💅🏻
First you say your Italian, then say your black and white mix, then your an Arab and now your white. You are a mess. White people hold the power all around the world. Deal with it!
Exactly!!!
MJ got off Scott Free for m*****ìng all those poor sick little Boys and forcing them to sleep in his bed with him. But because MJ could afford to pay his accusers he never faces jail time but KING RKELLY whom is completely broke is in prison serving a life sentence for doing what????
NOTHING!!!!! #Free Rkelly.
@Diabetes STFU MJ is without a doubt innocent. If you had any sense at all and read the Court Transcripts and not Fake News articles that were heavily bias towards him, you’ll realize MJ was basically being extorted for his wealth and fame. There were no f****** payouts dummy, the insurance company during the Dangerous Tour did that against his protest to fight for his innocence whereas they wanted him to continue the tour. Why??? $$$$$— that’s all been proven countless times.
If MJ is guilty of anything it is trusting the wrong muthfuckas and not having sensible people around to check him when needed to avoid the bs.
Now Kells on the other hand I’ma hold my tongue, as there is definitely more to this case then meets the eye but only time will tell considering he has two more trails. Nevertheless, such a waste of great talent and importantly legacy smh.
Choke to death.

The suffering continues for Joycelyn’s family, because her parents can’t convince her that anything is wrong. The story they shared is very sad.
May his victims finally find peace and may any idiot or loon supporting this predator find their meds. 🙏🏻
