Federal prosecutors have urged a court to sentence R. Kelly to an additional 25 years in prison for his convictions for child pornography and enticement last year in Chicago.
Federal prosecutors requested a court on Thursday to
sentence singer R. Kelly to an additional 25 years in prison for his child
pornography and enticement convictions in Chicago last year, which would be in
addition to the 30 years he has already begun serving in a New York case.
If the judge agrees to both the 25-year sentence and another
government request that Kelly begin serving his Chicago term until after the
30-year New York sentence is completed, the 56-year-old would not be eligible
for parole until he was approximately 100.
In their sentencing recommendation filed before midnight
Thursday in U.S. District Court in Chicago, prosecutors described Kelly's
behavior as “sadistic,” calling him “a serial sexual predator” with no remorse
and who "poses a serious danger to society."
“The only way to ensure Kelly does not reoffend is to impose
a sentence that will keep him in prison for the rest of his life,” the 37-page
government filing says.
Kelly's sentencing in Chicago is set for Thursday next week.
