R. Kelly is getting more evidence stacked against him, as prosecutors in the case revealed some of the evidence they have to prove that the singer took underage girls across state lines for sex.
According to new legal documents, federal prosecutors in New York have more than a dozen flight records, hotel receipts, bank records, medical records, birth certificates for a handful of women, and various other business documents. Additionally, they have texts and photos, as well as Uber records.
Some of the hotel receipts included stays at the Planet Hollywood resort in Las Vegas, the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel, and the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut, according to TMZ.
Prosecutors’ main goal is seemingly to prove that Kelly violated the Mann Act, which states that it is a crime for people to transport people across state lines for illicit sexual purposes.
Kelly is already facing criminal charges in multiple jurisdictions which include New York federal court, Illinois federal court, Illinois state court, and Minnesota state court. Kelly recently attempted to bring lawyer Tom Mesereau onto the case to represent him. Mesereau is most known for getting Michael Jackson acquitted of child molestation in 2005, and getting Robert Blake acquitted of murdering his wife, also in that same year.
The singer is currently sitting in an Illinois jail, as he awaits for his fate to unfold.
