R. Kelly, the famous American R&B singer, was convicted by a Chicago jury on three counts of child harm

and acquitted by a fourth.

He is also guilty of three of the five counts of soliciting minors for sexual activity.

The star was instead acquitted of having conspired to obstruct justice in a 2008 trial. Kelly, 55,

had already been sentenced in 2021 to 30 years for organized crime and sex trafficking

: a sentence that now risks being extended further. .
