R. Kelly's ex-manager jailed for stalking singer's victims

Russell had earlier pleaded guilty to threatening, harassing, and intimidating Kelly’s victims during the singer’s trial.

The statement read in part, “Between November 2018 and February 2020, Russell, a self-described manager, advisor and friend of Kelly, used the mail, phones and the internet to harass and intimidate Jane Doe, a victim in the Kelly case, and her mother after Jane Doe filed a civil lawsuit against R. Kelly.

On Thursday, a federal judge in Brooklyn sentenced Russell to 20 months in prison following his guilty plea. “The punishment meted out to the defendant today is a victory for crime victims, particularly those of sexual assault and abuse, who are often reluctant to come forward to law enforcement or pursue legal recourse, given the trauma and fear of retaliation associated with publicly discussing their experiences,” Peace said in the statement.
