An unidentified woman testified in court Thursday that R&b singer R. Kelly had sexually abused her “hundreds” of times before she turned 18, and confirmed that she’s the underage girl in the video that was at the centre of his 2008 child pornography trial.
The woman — now 37 and identified only by the pseudonym “Jane” — testified under oath in Kelly’s trial, reported The Hollywood Reporter, stating for the first time that she does appear with Kelly in the infamous tape. When the prosecutor asked how old she was at the time the video was filmed, she responded, “Fourteen.”
Kelly is on trial in Chicago on charges of child pornography and enticement of minors, in addition to charges that he rigged his 2008 trial by intimidating and paying off “Jane” to ensure she didn’t testify at that time.
