R. Kelly sentenced to 30 years for racketeering, sex trafficking | New York Post

R. Kelly has been sentenced to 30 years following his conviction in federal court on racketeering and sex-trafficking charges last September.

Born Robert Sylvester Kelly, the singer-songwriter, 55, was found guilty on one charge of racketeering and eight counts of violating the Mann Act, which prohibits the transport of “any woman or girl” across state lines for any “immoral purpose,” in September 2021.

It took about nine hours across two days for the jury of seven men and five women to deliberate and eventually convict the “I Wish” singer.
