So does that JUSTIFY the situation? The ACT itself, still occurred. They both still attempted to get married, misrepresentation or not. She was still under 18, NOT an adult.

Why I think Aaliyah is relevant
IMO the marriage to Aaliyah is relevant. Part of people's feeling about Rra in this whole thing is that he has a pattern of being involved with underaged girls. If there is a long standing, allegedly substantiated rumor about a marriage to Aaliyah who was a minor at the time, that simply bolsters the appearance of a pattern. If he never was married to her, what honors her memory and image more that a bold and clear, NO I WAS NEVER EVER, EVER MARRIED TO HER! STOP TRYING TO DRAG HER NAME THROUGH THE MUD. There has never been a clear and unequivocal statement made by either side on this issue which has persisted for going on ten years. To me, that seems to indicate an inability to make a clear statement about it.
Documents can be forged- this is true. The mere fact that a reporter only had a copy of a marriage licensee- what else would they have? If you go to obtain an official record, you are going to be given a copy, albeit certified by the clerk of the court. Considering he had no standing to request the record, the best a reporter is likely to get is a copy a courthouse employee made for him on the DL. As the rumor goes, she misrepresented her age in order to get the marriage license. Again, for her to do that lends itself to the image of him as a manipulator of young girls. How are you, as the ADULT going to have her lying and committing a fraud on the state to marry you? If they were married, legally with her parents consent, it would have had to be in writing and therefore there would not have been grounds to have it annulled (annulment requires fraud of some kind, if everything is done properly, there is no fraud.) Further, I have no doubt that one of their camps would have taken action a long time ago to stop the media’s reporting of the marriage if they could have. Both have avoided the question for years. After a while, no comment starts to sound like "yeah, that's true but I can't talk about it." If it did happen, I am sure there was a legal agreement between the two parties preventing them from talking about it anyway. |

Ok, was I hearing things or did that fool begin the interview last night by saying that he was "biting his teeth" :eek: so that he wouldn't say anything he wasn't supposed to? Maybe I'm not up on the latest lingo, but I think the correct term is "biting his TOUNGUE". After that, I knew I couldn't take anything else he said seriously and changed the channel.

The Tape: Why He Won't Admit
R. probably isn't saying anything about the tape because he doesn't want to be caught in a lie. Let us not forget what Bill Clinton's adamant statement (you remember it: "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky") did to him: he was brought up on perjury charges and impeached! That may explain why R. is playing it cool, and avoiding responsibility for his alleged presence on the tape.

Where are the parents?
Rra definitely got issues and need alotta help. I don't care how old these girls BODIES appear to be, the words that come out of their mouth will tell a more eloquent story.
As a mother of two girls myself, I'm wondering where are their parents? Why don't you have close enough tabs on your children to know where and who they are hanging with? Not only that, why weren't certain values instilled in them. When I was coming up I DID NOT have 'lottabody' but OLDER MEN would try to kick it to me all the time. My parents raised me to make them feel like chit for even tryin to holla at me. My immediate response was always: Do you know how old I am? IMHO, the parents share just as much of the burden as Rra! |
4th woman sues Kelly over sex tape
May 31, 2002
BY ABDON M. PALLASCH AND JIM DEROGATIS Chicago Sun-Times STAFF REPORTERS Another woman has filed suit against R&B superstar R. Kelly. Montina "Tina" Woods, 33, a Chicago dancer who tours with the Isley brothers, said she never knew Kelly was secretly taping her sexual encounter with him at his recording studio, Chicago Trax. The tape has made its way into a collage of three Kelly sexual encounters, bootleg versions of which are available on street corners across America. Woods "had a right to privacy to prevent her personal image from being recorded for the purpose of his personal gratification and possible dissemination to the public," the suit filed in Cook County Circuit Court states. "R. Kelly should have known this was likely to cause severe emotional harm and economic harm to [Woods]," the suit states. This brings to four the number of women who have sued Kelly in Cook County for inappropriate sexual behavior; two of them were under age. Kelly settled with two of the women. A fifth woman settled with Kelly out of court before filing suit, attorney Susan Loggans said. Those five do not include the then-14-year-old girl who appears on a 26-minute videotape engaging in sex acts with a man who appears to be Kelly. That tape was sent anonymously to the Sun-Times and turned over to Chicago police. Police investigated the tape and turned over evidence to the Cook County state's attorney, which empaneled a grand jury. Bringing the total number of women to at least seven is Aaliyah, the young singer and actress killed in a plane crash last year. Kelly married her when she was 15 and he was 27 in 1994. Her family annulled the marriage when they found out. They said Kelly encouraged Aaliyah to falsify her age. "R. Kelly has been aware of his acts for over 10 years that constitute violations of criminal statutes and flagrantly displays disregard of the law by way of his negligence from causing further harm to females," Woods' lawsuit states. Kelly's attorney said he had not seen the lawsuit and so could not comment. The suit states, "Kelly set up a hidden camera, prepared his office and background for the exclusive purpose of secretly recording Miss Woods." The tape includes nude dancing and sex acts. Patrice Jones, whose lawsuit against Kelly is pending, said the singer had sex with her, too, at his Chicago Trax recording studio. Jones said Kelly coerced her into a sexual relationship after meeting her at the Rock and Roll McDonald's on her senior prom night. They had sex 20 to 30 times before her 17th birthday and she got pregnant, she said. Kelly forced her to get an abortion, her suit states. Copyright: The Chicago Sun-Times |
Rra is going straight to JAIL..
not to put my bidness out there.. but i'm gonna (*smackin' like Key-lo-lo*). Back in the day.. way way back when i had "oops my panties" moments(only 1 or 2) ;)... I never danced and put on a show before/after the act. wtf is that all about? again i'm not saying that Rra wasn't wrong for videotaping... but don't play total victim when you was up in there doing the running man necked! okay.. that's all i got to say about that. |
Okay, now, is there anybody else who wants to jump into the suit? Does anyone know where this case is in the courts? I'm sure that it will be a minute before it comes to trial.
As far as the dancer is concerned...now I certainly am not advocating her sexual exploits, but, if she really didn't know that he was taping...then that's still illegal as it is a private act (legal experts can feel free to chime in if I'm wrong). |
R. Kelly to be indicted in child pornography case
June 5, 2002
BY JIM DEROGATIS AND ABDON M. PALLASCH CHICAGO SUN-TIMES STAFF REPORTERS A grand jury indictment will be announced today against R. Kelly, accusing the chart-topping R&B superstar of violating child pornography laws, sources told the Sun-Times on Tuesday. Prosecutors have a videotape sent anonymously to the Sun-Times appearing to show R. Kelly committing various sex acts with a 14-year-old girl. State law prohibits producing or disseminating child pornography or soliciting a minor to participate in sex acts on tape or film. The Class 1 felony charge carries a prison term of up to 15 years, and a fine of up to $100,000. For more than three years Chicago police investigated charges that Kelly was having a sexual relationship with the then-14-year-old daughter of an associate. But the girl and her parents denied the allegations. The Sun-Times reported the investigation in a December 2000 story about Kelly's pattern of pursuing underage girls for sex. The big break in the case came in February when a videotape was sent anonymously to the Sun-Times. Kelly apparently made the tape of himself engaging in various sex acts--including acts involving urination with the underage girl. The tape was turned over to the sex crimes unit of the Chicago Police. Kelly has denied having sex with underage girls and maintained in a recent TV interview that he's not the man on the tape. Cook County State's Attorney Richard Devine impaneled a grand jury that heard dozens of witnesses identify Kelly and the teen on the tape and confirm that they had a sexual relationship. The tape was authenticated by the FBI, which determined it could not have been a forgery. Bootleg copies of the video are available for sale on street corners across the country--$10 for VHS, $15 for DVD. In recent years, Kelly has paid settlements to three young women who filed lawsuits or threatened to sue him over underage or coerced sexual relationships. A fourth woman has filed suit claiming Kelly coerced her into a sexual relationship when she was a minor, and he coaxed her to have an abortion. That case is pending. Yet another lawsuit was filed by a 33-year-old dancer who charges that she was unknowingly videotaped by Kelly during sexual relations. That case also is pending. Kelly has responded to the lawsuits by trying to tarnish the women's reputations. Before Tiffany Hawkins filed a suit she ultimately settled against Kelly, charging that he coaxed her to participate in group sex with him when she was 15, Kelly filed a preemptive suit against her for blackmail. That suit was dismissed. This week, copies of rap sheets for minor misdemeanors that Kelly's other accusers purportedly have been charged with have been sent anonymously to local news outlets. Kelly is hardly the first celebrity to be accused of taking advantage of young girls. Gary Glitter, Rob Lowe, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Roman Polanski, Rolling Stone Bill Wyman and even the legendary Errol Flynn all have been the subject of news reports for allegedly having trysts with minors. Chicago police interviewed dozens of people who knew Kelly, the girl in the tape or both. Because the girl and her parents denied it was her, police and prosecutors reportedly had to build the case against Kelly around them. While police and other family members who were cooperating with the investigation grew impatient for prosecutors to charge Kelly, the Cook County state's attorney's office took months, it said, trying to make sure it had an ironclad case. Prosecutors were haunted by a case 14 years ago, when they had a similarly uncooperative witness who had been taped having sex with a man when she was underage. Prosecutors charged him anyway, and he was acquitted. Since then, the state's attorney's office has adopted a more aggressive stand. In 1995, Beverly Heard refused to testify that she and U.S. Rep. Mel Reynolds had sex when she was 16. They put her in jail for 13 days, until she agreed to testify. Reynolds was convicted. In recent TV interviews, Kelly insisted that, despite the controversy over the video purporting to show him having sex with a minor, he never felt compelled to seek out or watch one of the many bootleg copies of the tape. "If people out there have a tape of me and they're saying it's me and a young girl, a minor . . . then they're sadly mistaken or they're lying," Kelly said on BET. "I can say it with all confidence right here that it isn't me because I didn't do it. Nowadays, you can make a tape, you can make a song; it can sound like a person or look like a person . . . but that's not me." He did not explain how a 26-minute tape in which the protagonist is seen staring into the camera and adjusting it could be faked, a feat video experts have told the Sun-Times would be difficult even for a major movie studio to pull off. As the accusations against Kelly have mounted and the videotape of him has circulated across the country, his fellow hip-hop artists have distanced themselves from him. "Thong Song" singer Sisqo's new track, "This Is the Heart," offers the lyric, "The World's Greatest? Whatever! Ain't nothing but a child molester." Kelly's album with rapper Jay-Z, "The Best of Both Worlds," sold far less than expected when it was released in April. Industry executives blamed the scandal. Jay-Z refused to tour, make videos or even be photographed with Kelly after the police probe was disclosed. Rapper Nas recently told an L.A. audience, "We're not up here molesting children. We're not 'The Best of Both Worlds.' " Multiplatinum producer Dr. Dre has decided not to release a track with Kelly. Dr. Dre was quoted in the British newspaper New Nation as saying, "I haven't seen the video, nor do I want to see it because there's a kid involved. That's where I draw the line. You can do almost anything except touch kids or something like that. That's a no-no. You know what I'm saying? If he's guilty, he's over. I'm just waiting for the results." Ministers and community activists in Chicago, Philadelphia, New York, Atlanta and Los Angeles have decried Kelly's behavior and urged boycotts of stores that sell his albums and radio stations that play his music. R. Kelly's ups, downs January 1992 Kelly releases his debut album, "Born Into the '90s." It sells more than 1 million copies. November 1993 Kelly releases "12 Play." It sells 5 million copies. June 1994 Aaliyah releases her Kelly-produced debut, "Age Ain't Nothing But A Number." It sells 1 million copies. Aug. 31, 1994 Kelly and Aaliyah are married in Rosemont. Feb. 7, 1995 A Michigan judge dissolves the marriage. September 1995 Michael Jackson's Kelly-produced single "You Are Not Alone" becomes his first No.1 hit since his sex scandal. July 1996 Kelly is booked on battery charges in Lafayette, La., after a fight on the basketball court at a health club. Sources say Kelly desperately fears doing time in jail. November 1996 Kelly releases his third album, titled "R. Kelly." December 1996 The single "I Believe I Can Fly," from the "Space Jam" soundtrack, peaks at No. 2. Also, Tiffany Hawkins files a lawsuit against Kelly, charging that he encouraged her to have sex with him when she was underage. January 1998 Kelly pays Hawkins $250,000 to drop her suit shortly after she gives a 7-1/2-hour deposition about their sexual activities. April 1998 Kelly is arrested in Chicago for disorderly conduct after allegedly becoming verbally abusive when asked to turn down the stereo in his 1998 Lincoln. May 1998 The disorderly conduct charges are dropped. November 1998 Kelly releases his fourth album, "R." It sells 6 million copies. April 2000 Aspiring rapper Tracy Sampson, 17, begins having sex with Kelly, according to her lawsuit. November 2000 Kelly releases his fifth album, "TP2.com." It debuts at No. 1. December 2000 A Chicago Sun-Times report details Kelly's alleged trysts with underage girls. February 2002 A videotape anonymously sent to the Sun-Times appears to show Kelly engaging in sex acts with a 14-year-old girl. The Sun-Times turns the tape over to police. March 2002 Bootleg copies of the tape begin showing up for sale across America. April 2002 Kelly settles Sampson's lawsuit, even as another woman, Patrice Jones, files a new suit accusing Kelly of coercing her into a sexual relationship when she was 16. May 2002 A fourth woman settles with Kelly before filing a lawsuit, and a fifth, Montina Woods, 33, sues Kelly for invasion of privacy, saying she thought her sex act with him was private, then found out he secretly videotaped it. Kelly does TV interviews to deny the accusations in the lawsuits and say he's not the man in the videotape. June 2002 Kelly to be indicted for violating state child pornography laws. |
