R Kelly has found himself in some legal troubles:
R.Kelly has been sued by a Kansas City private investigator who claimed he was not paid for his services during the singer’s child pornography case.
The lawsuit was filed last Friday (February 27) in federal court.
Kelly is being sued by a private investigator who claims the singer stiffed him on a $300,000 bill. According to a lawsuit filed last week in Missouri federal court, Charles Freeman claims he was hired during Kelly’s trial to “obtain and/or recover certain tapes that were said to incriminate” R. Kelly. Freeman said he did the job, but never got paid. He’s suing for damages plus interests and costs. (TMZ)
Freeman claims an agreement was drawn together at the start of the investigation.In the suit, Freeman claims that he entered into an agreement in 2001 with R. Kelly and manager Daryl McDavid to “act as a private investigator” and retrieve “tapes” relevant to R. Kelly’s then-upcoming child-pornography trial. R. Kelly was accused of 21 counts of child pornography. The trial, which was delayed until 2008, centered on a tape that allegedly showed R. Kelly having sex with a 14-year-old girl. (Kansas City Pitch)
Freeman was an active figure in Kelly’s case and was also accused of creating a staged sex tape against Kelly.
The first thing to come to mind was this is what this guy gets for helping a child molester. I have also read that the wealthy sometimes wait to get sued because they wind up paying less than if they paid people right out. This guy basically raped a 14 year old, I would not be surprised if he cheated somebody out of their money…
