R&B singer R. Kelly’s one-time girlfriend, Azriel Clary, claims he has hundreds of victims across America. He is also accused of filming them engaging in acts of child pornography and proceeded to blackmail them so they remained silent.
What We Know:
- In an exclusive interview with The U.S. Sun, Clary explaining how Kelly filmed various women sexually molesting children or performing other sexual acts and held it over their heads as his assurance that they would not speak. His deceitful logic with the victims was if they implicate him, they’d also implicate themselves.
- Clary stated “For the most part, he blackmails everyone. He makes everyone do very degrading stuff, whether on film or writing it down, he makes them sign it. And I think a lot of women are ashamed or embarrassed to come out because of stuff like that because it’ll be incriminating them.”
- Steve Greenberg, R. Kelly’s attorney, denies all allegations saying, “It is clear that she now seeks to personally capitalize from their relationship, and the only way to do so is to parrot the false narrative.”
- Kelly has been in prison since last year. He faces numerous sexual assault charges as well as federal child pornography and racketeering charges.
Clary was recently in the news for engaging one of Kelly’s ex-girlfriends, Joycelyn Savage. Savage was released from custody after receiving a misdemeanor battery charge; a court date has been set for January 23.
