Kelly- Suicide Watch
Following the September 27th guilty verdict, a lawyer who represents R Kelly revealed the singer was placed on suicide watch. According to FM Hip Hop, Kelly never expressed thoughts of self-harm and is no longer on watch. Court records show Kelly videotaped himself having sexual relations with three underage girls. He faces ten years minimum for the child pornography charge. R Kelly has pleaded not guilty to these charges. It seems that, considering both are looking at a long road ahead of them, this friendship Hunt and Kelly formed could be a good thing.
