R. Kelly Trial: Ex-Assistant Identifies Kelly, Girl on Video

5/28/08, 9:13 am EST

The R. Kelly child pornography trial resumed yesterday after the long Memorial Day weekend with several more witnesses taking the stand to identify the singer and the young girl in the sex tape. Most notable of the witnesses was Kelly’s former assistant Lindsay Perryman, who spent seven years working for the star. Perryman testified that Kelly was a great boss, that she thought “highly” of him and that she’d never seen him act inappropriately with females. That being said, she was “110 percent sure” that the couple in the video was Kelly and the girl at the heart of the trial. Perryman knew the girl well — she testified that she would often see her show up to Kelly’s studio carrying a pillow and an overnight bag, and as her job functions expanded she often facilitated liaisons between the two. Despite the fact that the girl was often coming from school to meet with Kelly, Perryman never suspected any inappropriate behavior. Perryman also acknowledged seeing Lisa Van Allen, the supposed third partner in the alleged threesome on the video, who is expected to take the stand today.

I wonder if R.Kelly will stop paying off the girl and her family since he has been found not guilty?

kickback | 6/13/2008, 4:23 pm EST

it’s obvious r kelly is guilty! This is just another case of a rich bastard winning because of a) crooked lawyers (ex: cochran in the oj case)who withold/ alter evidence
b) and judges and witnesses getting kickbacks in exchange for exoneration of the charges
If R kelly wasn’t a “celebrity”, he’d already be in the slammer. It’s a damn shame!!!

Wait a second, this doesn’t make sense. First the testimony indicates “she would often see her show up to Kelly’s studio carrying a pillow and an overnight bag, and as her job functions expanded she often facilitated liaisons between the two.” Then the witness testified that she “never suspected any inappropriate behavior.” HUH?!?!?!!? WHA?!?!?

stupid R. Kelly | 5/28/2008, 10:54 am EST

seems that what was wrong for M. Jackson is right for R. Kelly. This really stinks.

TEAM R KELLY | 5/28/2008, 10:15 am EST
