The judge that sentenced R. Kelly reportedly spoke to him directly at the trial today: “These crimes were calculated and carefully planned and regularly executed for almost 25 years. You taught them that love is enslavement and violence” 1 Like |

The singer R Kelly was sentenced to 30 years in prison on Wednesday for sexually abusing women, girls and boys, more than 20 years after first facing allegations. Jim DeRogatis: ‘Where was Rolling Stone? Where was the Chicago Tribune?’ ‘Everyone failed these young, Black girls’: journalist Jim DeRogatis on his decades-long battle to expose R Kelly Read more Kelly’s conviction has been seen as a victory for survivors of sexual violence, particularly those who may hesitate to speak out against abusers, for fear of retribution. Last September, a jury in New York City found Kelly guilty of sex trafficking and racketeering, on all nine counts against him. Prosecutors had sought a sentence of at least 25 years. At the trial, victims had described how Kelly subjected them to perverse and sadistic whims when they were underage. Several said he would demand that they strictly obey rules such as needing his permission to eat or go to the bathroom, and writing “apology letters” that purported to absolve him of wrongdoing. Ahead of sentencing on Wednesday, some of the victims made statements, including “Angela”, who said “with every addition of a new victim you grew in wickedness”. On this day of sentencing “we reclaim our names”, she said. “We are no longer the preyed-upon individuals we once were.” In her victim statement, Lizette Martinez said: “Robert, you destroyed so many people’s lives.” Kelly’s case attracted attention in light of the #MeToo movement, during which powerful men have been held to account for sexual misconduct and sexual assault. Kelly follows Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby and other prominent abusers in being sentenced to time behind bars, although Cosby was acquitted on appeal. The singer, whose hits include Ignition and I Believe I Can Fly, was represented by Jennifer Bonjean, a lawyer who represented Cosby. Kelly’s sentencing came years after sexual misconduct allegations were first made against him. Accusers included his former wife, Andrea Kelly, who said she feared Kelly might kill her. He was charged with 21 counts of making child sexual abuse videos involving various sexual acts in June 2002, but was acquitted on all counts following trial in 2008. In 2017, an article in Buzzfeed brought fresh allegations that Kelly had trapped six women in a sex “cult” having taken advantage of them after they approached him for help with their musical careers. Then in January 2019, a six-part documentary titled Surviving R Kelly, detailing the allegations of sexual abuse and misconduct against the singer, aired on US TV network Lifetime. In the film, accusers wondered if their stories were previously ignored because they were Black women. Asked about some allegations during a CBS interview in 2019, Kelly memorably shouted at his interviewer, Gayle King, and denied any wrongdoing. R Kelly denies sexual abuse in first interview since criminal charges – video 02:28 R Kelly denies sexual abuse in first interview since criminal charges – video He was later arrested in July 2019 and charged with sex trafficking offences including child abuse images and obstruction of justice. A sentencing memorandum filed by the federal prosecutors in the eastern district of New York, said, in part: “With the aid of his inner circle and over a period of decades, the defendant preyed upon children and young women for his own sexual gratification. “In order to carry out his many crimes, the defendant relied upon his fame, money and popularity as an R&B recording star and used the large network of people his status afforded him – including his business managers, security guards and bouncers, runners, lawyers, accountants, and assistants – to both carry out and conceal his crimes.” While prosecutors sought a minimum 25-year term, Kelly’s defence pushed for a sentence of 10 years or less. They argued in court papers he should get a break in part because he “experienced a traumatic childhood involving severe, prolonged childhood sexual abuse, poverty, and violence”. The singer, real name Robert Sylvester Kelly, has been detained at the Metropolitan detention center in Brooklyn since the verdict last September. Kelly faces further legal trouble. In federal court in Chicago, he is charged with enticement of a minor, possession of child abuse images and obstruction of justice. That trial is set to be held in August. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jun/29/r-kelly-sentenced-sexual-abuse

Childhood days. Days without okada Days without Keke maruwa Days you will play street soccer and only two vehicles will pass in one hour. Days where we trekked to school. Days we look forward to four o clock on nta stations for cartoon programs Days we compete in dressing during festival periods Days we go to fetch water with buckets on our heads. Days we don't have tarred street so playing was fun and less risky to injuries Days we can walk without fear of kidnapping Days we can fill our pockets with coins to buy candies and lollipops. Oh how much I miss those days 7 Likes |

There are hundreds of women who are your missing rib, but unfortunately you can only marry one. Even that one you will choose have her own wahala. Women will remain women. Take as much time to decide who to settle down with, even if you are 40+. 9 Likes 1 Share |
