R. Kelly’s legal battles have continued with a Chicago court rejecting his statute of limitations defense and sentencing him to serve an additional concurrent sentence, potentially totaling 31 years in jail. The convictions in both New York and Chicago mark significant milestones in the #MeToo movement, as they represent the first major sex abuse trial where the majority of accusers were Black women. Despite the sentencing, Kelly’s lawyer plans to appeal the decision, indicating that the legal saga is far from over for the disgraced singer.
