R. Kelly Sentenced To 20 Years For Chicago Federal Sex Crimes Case

R. Kelly has actually simply been sentenced in Chicago to 20 years for his federal sex crimes case.

The disgraced vocalist remained in federal court in Illinois Thursday … 19 of the years will be served concurrent with the sentence he’s performing now, while the last year will be successive.

Prosecutors advised a 25-year sentence and asked that it be served on top of the time he’s currently serving behind bars.

As we reported, Kelly was accused of abusing 4 individuals, 3 being minors, in this case and dealt with kid porn charges. He was found guilty on 6 of 13 charges, with the jury convicting him on the kid porn counts, however acquitting him on charges of conspiracy and temptation.

U.S. Attorney Jon Lausch at the time stated his sentencing might vary anywhere from 10-90 years … however Kelly appeared to capture a little break previously this year — even if it will not make a huge result on his time in jail.

Charges versus Kelly from Cook County State Attorney Kim Foxx were dropped in January, with Kelly’s lawyer Jennifer Bonjean informing us Foxx chose to not pursue the case due to the fact that he’s been founded guilty two times of comparable crimes and is currently taking a look at the possibility of a life time lockup.
