R.Kelly Arrested for Sex Trafficking

The famous R&B singer is facing legal troubles again after he was arrested in Chicago on Thursday for federal sex crime charges. This morning his attorney, Steve Greenberg,  tweeted out a lengthy tweet stating that Kelly was arrested by federal agents while walking his dog. In Greenberg’s tweet he stated that the charges arose from alleged conduct that appears to be largely related to the same conduct previously alleged against Mr. Kelly. Greenberg also stated that Kelly was well aware of the investigations and charges and that the arrest was not a surprise for him. He stated that a bail hearing for Kelly will be taking place early next week; Kelly’s arrest came months after he was charged with 11 additional counts of sexual abuse in May. Kelly has denied all allegations against him.
