On Monday, the R&B artist R. Kelly was found guilty on nine counts of sex trafficking and racketeering, with the latter charge including acts of bribery and sexual exploitation of a child. Kelly was also found to be in violation of the Mann Act, a sex-trafficking statute that—in Kelly’s case—related to the transportation and coercion of two women, including a minor. Kelly could face up to life in prison at his sentencing, which will take place on May 4. “Today’s guilty verdict forever brands R. Kelly as a predator, who used his fame and fortune to prey on the young, the vulnerable, and the voiceless for his own sexual gratification,” said Jacquelyn M. Kasulis, acting U.S. attorney from the Eastern District, outside the Brooklyn courthouse where Kelly’s verdict was read.
