R&B superstar R. Kelly has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for using his fame to sexually abuse young fans.
R&B superstar R. Kelly was sentenced Wednesday to 30 years in prison for using his fame to sexually abuse young fans, including some who were just children, in a systematic scheme that went on for decades.
A third woman, sobbing and sniffling as she spoke, said Kelly’s conviction renewed her confidence in the legal system.The woman said Kelly victimized her after she went to a concert when she was 17. Kelly’s lawyers had argued he should get no more than 10 years in prison because he had a traumatic childhood “involving severe, prolonged childhood sexual abuse, poverty, and violence.”
The Brooklyn federal court jury convicted him after hearing that he used his entourage of managers and aides to meet girls and keep them obedient, an operation that prosecutors said amounted to a criminal enterprise. Some said they believed the videotapes he shot of them having sex would be used against them if they exposed what was happening.
