The trouble continues for disgraced American singer R. Kelly as he bags another 20-year jail term, A day ago, a US judge handed the songster a fresh 20-year sentence for child pornography. He would, however, serve the sentence simultaneously with previous sentences.
The “Legs Shakin’” singer already has a 30-year conviction on sex trafficking and child racketeering charges. With the verdict on concurrently serving his prison term, it indirectly means that his 30-year sentence is what really counts.
Also, the verdict to have the singer serve his sentence concurrently was a big win for the defence, which insisted that it was only fair that the sentence should be concurrent.
Since his troubles with the law began, R. Kelly has been a subject of great interest, with social media users trying to piece together the great tale of how one of the most iconic RnB singers of all time lost his place at the zenith and plummeted in disgrace.
From being the darling of many around the world, the singer had found himself alone and unwanted by many, even his former close associates – a morbid testament to the reality that life can take violent, embarrassing turns in the twinkle of an eye.
