This is the year all crimes are being tried, from Leaving Neverland to surviving R.Kelly. Speaking about the latter, there is a new sex tape that has emergered, this is according to one of the lawyers representing women who claim they were abused by R&B star R.
Kelly said a new video tape had emerged which showed the singer “sexually abusing children.” now this development could send the R&B singer back behind bars.
Kelly is currently on bail after being accused of sexually abusing four women, including three teenagers, between May 1998 and January 2010.
The latest discovery was announced by lawyer Gloria Allred at a press conference where she told journalists it was found by couple Gary and Sallie Dennis in a box of old VHS cassettes at their home.
Neither Allred nor Dennis elaborated on how the tape came to be in the couple’s possession.
“Prior to learning that such a tape was in their possession, Sallie had viewed the Lifetime documentary called Surviving R. Kelly,” said Allred.
“She was emotionally very disturbed by what the women in the documentary alleged had happened.
“Sometime after that, Sallie and her husband discovered to their surprise that they had a VHS tape that could be helpful in learning what had happened to these young girls who had come into contact with R. Kelly.”
Allred said that while she had not viewed a previous tape that had been widely reported in the media, she did not believe it was of the same act.
She said it showed “what appeared to be R. Kelly sexually abusing children” but declined to go into further detail.
