Per Wikipedia:

Quote:

Since the 1990s, Kelly has been accused of sexual abuse and misconduct, often with underage girls, all charges he denies.[14] In 2002, he was indicted on 13 counts of child pornography but was acquitted of all charges in 2008. In January 2019, a widely viewed Lifetime docuseries titled Surviving R. Kelly detailed allegations of sexual abuse by multiple women, allegations Kelly denies. Facing pressure from the public using the Mute R. Kelly hashtag, RCA Records dropped Kelly.

On February 22, 2019, Kelly was indicted on 10 counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse. On July 11, 2019, he was arrested on federal charges alleging sex crimes, human trafficking, child pornography, racketeering, and obstruction of justice. Kelly faced a total of 22 federal counts, including child pornography, kidnapping and forced labor, as of January 29, 2021. The federal judge ordered R. Kelly jailed pending trial on the charges. On September 27, 2021, a federal court jury found R. Kelly guilty on nine counts including racketeering, sexual exploitation of a child, kidnapping, bribery, sex trafficking, and a violation of the Mann Act. The judge ordered that Kelly remain in custody pending sentencing, which was set for May 4, 2022.

Seems like a great guy.

Aged like milk.

This is like Dr. Larry Nassar and Bill Cosby. R. Kelly got away with his rape and abuse for many years before he saw justice. Not soon enough for this POS. From 2009- this gets good around 5:00 and 6:15:

Poor ole R Kelly. changing times caught up with him.

A decade or two ago for famous musicians/actors, girls were just part of the package, an available commodity to be enjoyed then discarded. But welcome to the real world Mr Kelly. And I hope you enjoy the company of your cellmate.

Actually, sex scandals have always happened. The 60's actresses thread brought up Joey Heatherton...one VERY hot number of the 60's. She married pro football player Lance Rentzel...divorced him after he plead guilty to exposing himself to a 10 year old girl.

Never could figure that one out...married to one of the hottest babes in the country, and does this?

A special kind of sickness is all I can figure out..

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lance_Rentzel

In April 1969, Rentzel married Joey Heatherton, an actress, dancer, and singer, in New York City.[23] In November 1970, Rentzel was arrested for exposing himself to a 10-year-old girl.[24] He pled guilty to the charge and promised to undergo psychiatric treatment and was given a suspended sentence. Heatherton filed for divorce on September 18, 1971, and it became final in 1972.[25][23] Rentzel later wrote a book, When All the Laughter Died in Sorrow, reflecting upon those events.[26]

If it wasn't evident from my previous post, Pop Culture is the least of my concerns. I barely watch new TV shows, or movies, so why should I care about celebrities ?

Because they (and their opinions) are important!
