Popular American singer, R. Kelly has been moved to a prison in North Carolina where he will serve his prison sentence.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons confirmed Kelly, whose full name is Robert Sylvester Kelly – was moved on Wednesday of last week from the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Chicago to the Federal Correctional Institution in Butner, North Carolina.
The Chicago native was sentenced in February to one additional year in prison for his Chicago conviction federal child pornography and child enticement charges, on top of the 30 years he’s already serving for a separate conviction out of New York.
In September 2022, a federal jury in Chicago convicted Kelly of six counts accusing him of sexually abusing three women – who testified under the pseudonyms Jane, Pauline, and Nia – on video, while acquitting him of enticement charges involving two other accusers, Tracy and Brittany.
The 56-year-old R&B artist, whose real name is Robert Sylvester Kelly, was transferred from the Metropolitan Correctional Center Chicago to Butner Federal Correctional Complex on April 19.
FMC Butner has housed some of America’s most notorious criminals, including Bernie Madoff, the “Unabomber” Ted Kaczynski, John Hinckley Jr. and Joe Exotic.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons does not disclose reasons for inmate transfers, but a statement from Kelly’s lawyer, Jennifer Bonjean, indicated that Kelly was in need of medical treatment.
“He continues to suffer from health issues caused by medical negligence at the MCC Chicago. We are hopeful that Butner will ensure that his medical needs are met,” Bonjean said.
In February, Kelly was sentenced to 20 years in prison for child pornography and enticement of minors for sex. He will serve 19 of those years concurrently with his existing 30-year sentence for sexually abusing women and underage girls and boys.
