R Kelly To Face Porn Trial
R Kelly will appear in court next month on child pornography charges after five years of accusations. The 40-year-old r'n'b performer, whose full name is Robert Kelly, will be due in court to face the charges on September 17 in Chicago, according to a Cook County judge.
The American singer has pleaded not guilty to the charges, although he faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted. Kelly has been charged with multiple counts of child pornography after he allegedly videotaped himself having sex with a girl that prosecutors claim was aged 14.
Assistant State Attorney Shauna Boliker said that jurors would be expected to answer the 136 questions so that lawyers on both sides can select the final 12 jury members.
