Prosecutors here dropped all child pornography charges against R. Kelly after a judge ruled that photos allegedly showing the singer having sex with an underage girl were illegally seized.
The decision, announced on Wednesday, doesn't mean that hitmaker is out of trouble. The R&B singer still faces 14 counts of child pornography in his homestate of Illinois stemming from a videotape allegedly showing him having sex with an underage girl.
But last week, Circuit Judge Dennis Maloney agreed with Kelly's attorneys that the Polk County sheriff's detectives did not have enough evidence to justify a search of Kelly's Davenport home when the deputies asked a judge for a warrant in June 2002.
The photographs were on a digital camera that was wrapped in a towel inside a duffel bag.
Prosecutors decided not to appeal Maloney's decision and instead dropped the 12 charges against Kelly, Assistant State Attorney Chip Thulberry said.
Kelly's Chicago-based attorney, Ed Genson, did not immediately return a phone message.
Kelly, whose first name is Robert, is a best-selling singer, songwriter and producer who has worked with artists ranging from Britney Spears to Michael Jackson . His hits include "Ignition," "Step in the Name of Love," and "I Believe I Can Fly."

yeah i read that, shit pisses me off... a rich pedophile and nothing happens to the man, radio stations still bump his shit.
-
Weren't other some charges dropped too because the crime wasn't illegal yet at that time? (Heard it on the radio, I don't know what crime it was)

i know its fucked up, i blame his record company's ethics for putting all that promotion behind when they should have made him step back until he has either been aquitted without any doubt of wrong doing or locked up. i also blame the radio station n mtv etc. for playing his shit when they should have boycotted it in this period. Plus i blame r kelly! it just makes me more suspicious hes guilty because if he gets convicted thats his career over, seems like hes just doing as much as he can whilst he can to me.
