Singer R. Kelly Acquitted of All Charges

The singer R. Kelly has been acquitted by the jury of all 14 charges against him after less than a day of deliberations in his child pornography case. The prosecutors against him tried to say that a video tape that was mailed to the Chicago Sun-Times in 2002 was of him having sex with a girl that was as young as 13 years old at the time that the tape was made. R. Kelly and the girl, who is now 23, both denied in court that it was either of them on the tape. Most of the evidence against him was questionable in court so there was not enough evidence for him to be sentenced.
