BREAKING: R. Kelly has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for sexual exploitation of a child, racketeering, bribery and sex trafficking.
Updated June 29, 2022 at 4:27 PM ETHe was sentenced in New York by federal Judge Ann Donnelly, who spoke at length before issuing the sentence. At one point, she quoted a victim impact statement from a woman known in court as Stephanie, who told Kelly,"No price was too high for someone else to pay for your happiness."Donnelly acknowledged points made by defense, including that Kelly endured a very difficult childhood, with sexual abuse at the hands of his sister and a landlord.
During the weekslong trial, multiple victims established a pattern where they would see Kelly at a show or out in public, and an associate of Kelly would hand them a phone number to call. From there they would be ensnared in a system of sexual and psychological abuse. Kelly forced his victims to perform sexual acts for his gratification . He set up strict rules dictating where his victims were allowed to go and who they were allowed to speak to.
Another woman, known in court as Jane Doe 2, described enduring depression and stress related to Kelly's abuse. She paused in her comments to demand his attention when Kelly whispered to his attorney."I'm sorry," she said."I don't want to interrupt his conversation."
