So we've all seen cosby, kelly, the living and posthumous MJ, but I gotta ask, where all the white entertainers at? I mean surely at this point we'd have convicted dozens and dozens of high profile white singers, comedians, athletes and it'd be a household story everywhere but off the top of my head I can only really think of louis ck and the house of cards guy, neither of which faced anything criminal.

R Kelly loving married Aaliyah when she was 15 years old, no, none of the poo poo you're describing ever happened

the crazy thing to me is how that's even a thing, like child brides are totally legal in america if the parents are on board, so that basically means rich dudes + lovely parents = completely legal pedophilia.

At some point you kind of wonder why they bother going through other routes, they can just do it in the open if they feel like it.

So it looks like in 2004, right as it was all coming to a head, some brain genius judge not only dropped all charges against Kelly but even denied the request for a search warrant due to lack of sufficient evidence, despite literal photographic evidence of an underage rape taking place provided by one of the victims

Very cool

I wonder if anything such as, and I’m just taking a wild guess here, his financial situation, has changed between then and now that might help explain this discrepancy?
