R. Kelly Facing Jail Time Over Failing to Pay Child Support

R Kelly Facing Jail Time

R. Kelly is legal jeopardy after falling behind on child support payments. The singer’s lawyer fears the R&B star, who has gone underground, could face jail time.

The child sex predator is accused in court papers filed Thursday by his ex-wife Andrea Kelly of failing to pay $20,833 a month in child support he owes. The claim comes after he reportedly fell behind more than $100,000 in payments last year, but then paid the debt off.

Meanwhile, one of Kelly’s lawyers has told his team that if the singer doesn’t appear at a March 27 hearing in his child- custody battle in Chicago, a judge could give him 30 days to six months behind bars because Kelly didn’t show up at a November hearing.

“The judge was clear in November that he wasn’t happy R. Kelly didn’t show up, his lawyer is worried the judge could lock Kelly up if he doesn’t show this time, but he can’t reach his client.”

  1. She did lie then because she was bragging about how he pays child support on the TV show…

  2. She did but his team responded back that he was current on payments and she then retracted her story.

  3. He’s not going to jail for missed child support, dumb f*ck. His lawyer said that he could for missing a hearing on child CUSTODY. Can you Negros read? damn.
