R. Kelly's Own Handwritten Letters

Meanwhile, it seems R. Kelly has been writing letters of his own, as it's been revealed that he was allegedly sending threatening blackmail letters to his victims from inside the jail.

After requesting prosecutors to let him out of jail as he won't be a flight risk, prosecutors are wary of letting him go, as he has a history of trying to silence alleged victims.

Threatening His Alleged Victims

Now, it turns out he's been giving out typewritten letters, threatening to release compromising and potentially embarrassing photographs of the victim if she pursued her civil lawsuit against him.

“The letter sent, which was provided to the defense as part of the government’s discovery includes certain photographs and screen shots of text message exchanges between the defendant and Jane Doe #5 taken from the defendant’s phone.”

Awaiting Trial in Jail

Throughout the investigation, prosecutors spoke to multiple women about his history of coercing women to write letters that contained false allegations, so that the defendant could use them as blackmail.

With all these allegations thrown against him, R. Kelly will have to await trial in jail despite his pleas of getting out early.
