R. Kelly has been accused of multiple crimes against women over the past 20 years and this arrest is not even his first this year. In February, he was booked on charges of aggravated sexual abuse of four women. He plead not guilty and posted bail, prompting his release from Cook County Jail in Chicago. He was arrested in March for failure to pay $161,000 in child support. In May, a grand jury indicted him on 11 more counts of sexual abuse including aggravated sexual assault and criminal sexual assault. Up until Thursday’s arrest, he was free on $1 million bond set in February.
