R. Kelly Accused of Retaliation, Threats Against Alleged Victim Following STD Lawsuit

R. Kelly Accused of Retaliation, Threats Against Alleged Victim Following STD Lawsuit
The NYPD will meet with a woman who has accused R. Kelly of sexual assault and infecting her with genital herpes - and who now says the singer is trying to intimidate her into silence, attorney Gloria Allred said Monday. (The Facebook page was taken down after less than a day, for violating the social network's Community Standards.) Rodgers' mother also said in the press conference that she had received threats from Kelly.
After the documentary aired, singer Lady Gaga vowed to remove a duet she recorded with Kelly from streaming services and never collaborate with him again.
One of the most hard aspects of the docu-series to watch is the bits that have a closer look at Kelly's relationship and marriage with the singer Aaliyah.
(ThyBlackMan.com) I'm not writing this article to defend sexual predators like R. Kelly because I have a deep seated hatred for sexual predators especially those in our community like R. Kelly. "Counter actions are in the developmental stages and due to be released soon".
His 2017 Buzzfeed story, detailing how parents claimed their daughter was being held against her will by the singer, sparked a new wave of attention and more women coming forward about Kelly's alleged "cult" and his "brainwashing" of young women.

"We have an appointment today with the New York City Police Department who has asked to meet with Faith in furtherance of their investigation into potential victims of R. Kelly", said Allred.
"No woman should be victim-shamed, harassed or retaliated against because she asserted her rights and spoke her truth", Rodgers added. Allred also announced plans to cooperate with Atlanta and Chicago prosecutors looking to speak with the 52-year-old singer's alleged victims.
"We are here today to let Mr. Kelly know in no uncertain terms that he can not and will not intimidate his alleged victims into keeping silent about their allegations", Allred told reporters.
