The charges against R. Kelly

Tribune staff report
12:35 PM EDT, May 9, 2008

The R&B superstar faces a 14-count indictment.

Count 1: Child pornography – intercourse

Counts 2 and 3: Child pornography – sexual contact

Count 4: Child pornography – masturbation

Count 5:Child pornography – lewd fondling

Count 6: Child pornography – excretion/urination

Count 7: Child pornography – pose/exhibition

Counts 8-14: Child pornography – produces or performs

Each charge is a Class 1 felony. If found guilty, the sentence would be non-consecutive, meaning he would get the same time – 4 to 15 years – whether he is convicted of one or all the charges. The charges are also non-probationable, which means, if convicted, he will have to serve time.
