The final verdict was passed by US District Judge Ann Donnelly on Wednesday after hearing the testimonies of several victims who attested to how Kelly’s exploitation reverberated across their lives.

“You made me do things that broke my spirit. I literally wished I would die because of how low you made me feel,” said one unnamed survivor, directly addressing Kelly, who kept his hands folded and his eyes downcast. “Do you remember that?”

R Kelly did not talk to the court after the pronouncement of his sentence.
