Rapper R Kelly has reportedly been accused of 11 new accounts of sexual assault and if proven guilty, can be sentenced to 30 years of imprisonment.
According to eonline.com, a spokesperson for the Illinois Cook County Criminal Court said in a statement, “11 new charges related [to] sexual assault and sex abuse were filed against R. Kelly.”
Prosecutors have filed new accounts related to criminal sex assault, aggravated criminal sex assault and aggravated criminal sex abuse. Of the aggravated criminal sex abuse charges, three of the alleged victims are between the ages of 13 and 16.
