Singer R. Kelly’s Trial Finally Ready to Begin

After six years of delays, the jury selection is set to begin in the singer R. Kelly’s trail on child pornography charges. The charges are based on a videotape showing him supposedly having sex with a 13 year old girl. The girl, who is now 23 years old, says that it wasn’t her on the tape and R. Kelly also claims that it wasn’t him on the tape either. He could face up to 15 years in prison if he is convicted. The trial may last several weeks and in previous years Kelly has already settled three lawsuits that accused him of having sex with underage girls.
