THERE'S the age remark haha, knew it was only a matter of time. When you're done pushing conversations off track with fallacious arguments maybe we can talk, but you seem like an absolute headache so probably not.

Reply to comment by Mitch1musPrime in Chicago prosecutor dropping R. Kelly sex-abuse charges by roundposter

Right, that was all done BEFORE the Feds convicted him, and they’d started this case and begged those victims to come forward because they wanted to ensure he’d be put away. But now that he’s indeed been put away, there is no need to drag this prosecution out further. While that might cause emotional pain to the victims, it wouldn’t be a sound reasonable or financial decision to still move ahead.

Also, if on some crazy twist R Kelly got out of the federal penitentiary, there is no statute of limitations on sex crimes and Chicago could bring this up again in the future at their own behest. This Chicago case and what they’ve gathered thus far will always be available to go after him again if need be. The need it just not there at this time. It’d be unreasonable to spend the kind of money this will cost to move ahead knowing he won’t likely leave prison alive already. Like it or not emotionally, that’s the most logical conclusion at this time.
