In a new interview with Good Morning Britain, R. Kelly’s sisters claimed his 30-year sex abuse sentence is racist.
Cassandra Kelly told the news outlet that “African Americans have always been treated unfairly. And so I think that has a lot to do with [R. Kelly’s sentence], as well as other factors.”
The hosts then asked whether their brother had been intimate with any underage girls.
“I can say he may have been with younger women, but as far as underage girls, no—and I stress underage girls. Who has seen that? I believe a lot of the alleged victims are bitter,” Lisa Kelly said.
She refused to acknowledge Kelly’s victims.
“I’m not going to acknowledge something I don’t have proof of,” Lisa added.
“He is not a monster, he is not a pedophile,” Lisa Kelly said of her brother, whose full name is Robert Sylvester Kelly. “The only victim I’ve seen that’s been stolen from, lied on, is Robert.”
