We ploughed through the R Kelly documentary (it's called "Surviving R Kelly") yesterday, it's pretty long (about 5 and a half hours) but honestly, in some ways it's an even wilder ride than this one.
Plus like I said a couple of pages back, it illustrates a lot about the power of stardom. He went to trial on child porn charges and was found guilty. THERE WAS A VIDEO! The jury saw it! The press and even the lawyers were considering the trial to be practically a formality, everyone saw the tape and knew it was real, and yet the jury was like "nah"
. His own lawyer from the trial admits that he was definitely guilty and yet
.
Was also interesting to note that he was an acquaintance of MJ at one point.
