Prosecutors Claim R.Kelly Is Breaking Rules In Jail And Reveal He Only Married Aaliyah To Protect Himself In Court

Prosecutors are accusing infamous singer R. Kelly of violating the rules while locked up and attempting to secretly communicate with people without it being monitored by officials.

According to court documents obtained by @Blast, prosecutors are firing back at Kelly’s legal team for a motion they recently filed in his criminal case.

In the initial docs, Kelly’s team demanded to know the identities of the two “Jane Does” listed in his criminal indictment. They argued that without the names, they can’t build his defense. In the motion, the team also argued he is no danger and has no resources to harass or intimidate the alleged victims.

“At the time of his arrest, Mr. Kelly was living in a small condominium, working with his longtime producer, without other employees of note, and effectively without any income,” his lawyers wrote. “He had no “enterprise” as the government likes to call his career and his business, RSK Enterprises.”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Further, his lawyers argued, “As noted above, Mr. Kelly remains in custody at the federal jail in Chicago. All of his phone calls are monitored. All of his mail is monitored. Other than legal counsel, his only visitor is his girlfriend, Joycelyn. He simply has no means or method by which to engage in any obstructive conduct.”

However, Prosecutors trashed Kelly’s motion, claiming he has a history of intimidating and threatening alleged victims. Prosecutors pointed out as an example, a written note to one of his alleged victims threatening to release nude photos of her.

Prosecutors said while Kelly argues he can’t read or write, that doesn’t stop him from having others write it for him. “His literacy difficulties, of course, do not mean that the defendant is incapable of directing others to draft a threatening letter on his behalf or of being informed of and approving its specific contents.”

The prosecutors also revealed that Kelly, who was 27 at the time, married 15-year-old singer Aaliyah as a way to keep her from testifying against him in court.

Prosecutors recently added a charge of bribery to Kelly’s indictment over the Aaliyah marriage. They accused him of bribing a state official to obtain a fake ID for 15-year-old Aaliyah. The alleged child sex predator has pleaded not guilty to that charge.
