R. Kelly Court Gives Victim Priority Access To His Record Royalties

R. Kelly lost $4 million in a civil suit filed by a woman claiming that he lured her to his Chicago recording studio with promises of a job, if she had sex with him, when she was 16-years-old. The plaintiff, Heather Williams, says she met Kelly on a Chicago street in 1998 when she was just 16 and started a sexual relationship with him after being lured to his music studio with promises of an appearance in one of the singer’s videos. The Illinois Supreme Court ruled that the victim in the R. Kelly harassment case would be given first dibs at the singer’s royalties to help pay off the massive $4 million judgement against him. Heather Williams filed a civil lawsuit against Kelly in 2019 alleging that when she was just 16 years old the platinum selling artist lured her into his studio and promised her a job if she had sex with him. She ultimately won the case against the singer and was awarded $4 million, a payment Kelly has yet to pay up. After assessing the singer’s assets, the court decided on March 23 that Williams would be allowed to tap into the royalties Kelly earned through his music distributed at Sony Studios.
