- Singer R. Kelly, jailed in New York last month after he was charged in Brooklyn and Chicago with numerous sexual misconduct felonies, was charged on Monday in Minnesota with soliciting sex from a minor at a Minneapolis hotel room 18 years ago.

Kelly’s lawyer, Steve Greenberg, posted a message on Twitter saying, “Give me a break. This is beyond absurd.” Kelly was charged separately in Chicago with having sexual contact with five minors and recording sexually explicit videos of some of them. He is also accused of using threats and bribes to silence his alleged victims.

The performer, who has pleaded not guilty in the New York and Chicago cases, has denied abuse allegations for decades. In 2008, he was tried on child pornography charges and acquitted.

Too bad prosecutors cant be sued for defamation because thats exactly what all this. Prosecutors like immunity. It allows them to abuse their power for their own profit and get away with it.

Nice shades, wonder what is the brand

I guess sleazy music comes from sleazy people after all?

He’s doing it wrong 🤦🏼‍♀️

RockyMntnMike Quick to pick up an African American and charge him - I don't know the particulars and if he's guilty, I hope he rots in jail. BUT, there is a WHITE predator occupying the White House with nearly 2 dozen complaints - and NOTHING.

Rappers and clergymen have a common point: They love minors...

Is there a record for a single person being charged with same/similar offense in a number of states? If so, I think when all is said and done, R. Kelly may just break it.

Can’t wait to see this child predator die in prison!!!!
