Written by SOURCE on September 14, 2022
A federal jury has convicted R. Kelly of additional sex crimes, according to CBS News.
The verdict was announced Wednesday in Chicago, less than three months after the disgraced singer received a 30-year prison sentence for sex trafficking and racketeering in New York. The latest trial stemmed from videotapes in which Kelly is allegedly seen sexually abusing a 14-year-old girl.
After 11 hours of deliberation, the jury convicted Kelly on three counts of child pornography and three counts of child enticement. However, he was acquitted on seven other charges: six for obstruction of justice, and one for conspiracy to receive child pornography.
