R. Kelly Labelled A Predator By Prosecutor As Sex Abuse Trial Begins
The trial of embattled American Singer R. Kelly has begun at a court in Brooklyn, New York.
According to the Assistant U.S. Attorney Maria Cruz Melendez in her opening statement, she said “This case is about a predator, this case is not about a celebrity who likes to party a lot”
She also told the jury of seven men and five women in the Brooklyn federal court that R. Kelly used lies, manipulation, threats and physical abuse to dominate his victims, and often filmed their sexual encounters, which also includes the late singer Aaliyah, who was fifteen when she married him. #ESplashOnTVC
