The hard evidence the prosecution was supposed to present had surfaced way back in 2002. Back then, people were still reeling of the second time Michael Jackson had child molestation charges being brought about and did not necessarily want to hear about yet another celebrity nor wanted to hear about yet another celebrity taking advantage of a child. It wasn't a good time for anyone to be caught in those cross hairs of the public's animosity, least of all R Kelly, who had built his career on songs glorifying amoral behavior. For most it seemed to be an open and shut case, and it was just a matter of the trial actually coming about and once the evidence was presented clearly, R Kelly was going to not only be convicted of the charges being brought against him, but he would serve the maximum sentence and his career would have been an interesting part of history.
But years passed by and the trial had never occurred. It almost seemed as if it never would. What's worse is that just now, when everyone had all but forgotten about it, is when things really started to get interesting. There were ideas floating around about the premise that perhaps the tape was part of a larger ring, that it was being passed around and shown for entertainment, not unlike the infamous tape of a convenience store being robbed in the movie Menace to Society. Surely, if this was part of something bigger than just R Kelly and his own issues there is little room for anything but for him to be found guilty.
