Kelly avoids lengthy add-on to 30-year prison sentence"},"content":{"rendered":"
R. Kelly, the American R&B singer and songwriter, has avoided a lengthy add-on to his 30-year prison sentence after a plea deal was reached.<\/p>\n
The plea deal was reached in a Chicago court on Wednesday, where Kelly was facing a total of 18 counts of sexual abuse and other related charges. The plea deal allowed Kelly to avoid the possibility of a lengthy add-on to his already 30-year sentence.<\/p>\n
The plea deal was reached after a lengthy negotiation between prosecutors and Kelly’s legal team. The details of the plea deal were not immediately made public, but it is believed that Kelly agreed to a lesser sentence in exchange for his cooperation in the case.<\/p>\n
Kelly has been in prison since 2019, when he was found guilty of a series of sexual abuse related charges. He was sentenced to 30 years in prison, but the plea deal allowed him to avoid a longer sentence.<\/p>\n
The plea deal came as a surprise to many, as Kelly had previously rejected a plea deal that would have seen him serve only seven years in prison. It is believed that Kelly’s legal team was able to negotiate a more favorable deal due to the amount of evidence against him.<\/p>\n
The plea deal will likely bring some relief to Kelly’s family and fans, who have been following the case closely. Kelly has maintained his innocence throughout the trial and has denied all of the charges against him.<\/p>\n
The plea deal also allows Kelly to avoid a lengthy trial, which could have taken years to complete. It remains to be seen if Kelly will be able to serve the full 30-year sentence, or if he will be eligible for early release.<\/p>\n
Regardless of the outcome, the plea deal will likely bring some closure to the case and allow Kelly to move on with his life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
