Robert Kelly, also known as R. Kelly, has made it known he is not guilty after he was found guilty in a recent sex trafficking trial.
The famous singer was found guilty of leveraging on his superstar status to operate a scheme that sexually abuses women and children for more than two decades.
Eleven accusers, comprising nine women and two men, took the stand during the six-week trial to talk about sexual humiliation and violence he perpetrated.
After two days of proceedings, the jury found him guilty on every charge he was facing.
Kelly will be sentenced on May 4, 2022, and he may bag a life sentence.
After he was found guilty, he took to Facebook to release a statement.
The statement read: “To all my fans and supporters I love you all and thank you for all the support. Today’s verdict was disappointing and I will continue to prove my innocence and fight for my freedom. #notguilty.”
