Child porn problems continue to dog singer R Kelly

Now R Kelly’s been accused of stiffing the private detective he hired to recover incriminating evidence that could have could have been used to convict the R&B singer during his infamous 2008 child porn case.

Private eye Charles Freeman is asking $300,000 for services rendered during that trial. Kelly was eventually found not guilty of 14 charges including having sex with a minor and taping himself having sex with a girl barely in her teens.

Freeman says he was hired to “obtain and/or recover certain tapes that were said to incriminate” the singer.

In a surprising turn of legal events, Kelly was found innocent despite the fact that the jury viewed a tape that many observers said clearly showed Kelly and the girl engaged in sexual intercourse.

Kelly’s defense was the classic “Who you gonna believe, me or your lyin’ eyes?”
