R. Kelly's Ex-Protégé Sparkle Reacts to Lifetime's Documentary 'Surviving R. Kelly'
R Kelly was considered one of the most influential names in music. However, things went downhill for him when several women accused him of rape and sexual assault. Reports indicate that Kelly had oral sex and intercourse with three of his victims, all of whom were too young to legally consent. Moreover, authorities charged him with several offenses such as sexual abuse and more.
Meanwhile, Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) arrested Kelly in 2019 on federal sex charges. After years of allegations, the court eventually found the singer guilty of several sex-related crimes and sent him to prison.
The 54-year-old musician is now a convicted sex offender serving his sentence at FCI Butner Medium I in North Carolina. His scheduled release date is December 21, 2045. While various media outlets have covered R Kelly’s case extensively, several documentaries are revealing previously unheard information about his horrific crimes. Here are some documentaries viewers can watch to learn more about the musician and his crimes.
