R. Kelly Held Without Bond


R. Kelly held without bail after pleading not guilty to federal child pornography charges...
 
From CBS Local
Federal prosecutors told the judge they have 12 victims and possess three videos showing R. Kelly sexually abusing a 14-year-old girl.
It’s the same minor at the center of his case more than a decade ago.
But now prosecutors said they have five witnesses who will corroborate what’s depicted that video. And they said the other two videos are new.
Prosecutors told the judge that if Kelly got out again, he would have to opportunity to pay off or intimidate victims, their families and other people with knowledge of his actions.
The judge agreed, declining bond before Kelly pleaded not guilty on all counts.
