R. Kelly Trial Date Not Set 5 Years Later
R. Kelly was charged five years ago for child porn — but still hasn’t gone to trial.
Since being charged with child pornography five years ago for allegedly videotaping sex acts with a young teenager, R. Kelly has had six best-selling albums, three nationwide tours, a multitude of hits and awards — but no trial.
A series of sometimes bizarre events, including a judge’s tumble from a ladder and a case of appendicitis, have delayed the 40-year-old R&B superstar’s trial far longer than the norm. Kelly is due in a Chicago courtroom Friday for yet another status hearing, but there’s still no trial date in sight as he prepares to release a new album on May 29.
Other celebrity trials, including Michael Jackson’s, have long since begun and ended since Kelly’s indictment. And judging by how long it usually takes such cases to run their course, Kelly’s trial should have finished years ago, legal observers say.
Quite bizarre.
