BREAKING NEWS. After less than an hour or deliberations, a jury has found singer R. Kelly not guilty of child pornography. Kelly cried softly as the verdict was read on Friday afternoon. The R&B singer hugged each of his four attorneys after he was acquitted on all 14 counts at the trial. The verdict came six years after the Kelly was first charged with appearing on a graphic videotape with a girl prosecutors contended was as young as 13 at the time. Both Kelly and the now 23-year-old woman denied they were on the tape. Neither testified during the trial. The Grammy winning singer had faced 15 years in prison.
