A new report from Buzzfeed details an alleged illegal relationship between Jerhonda Pace (then Jerhonda Johnson) and singer R. Kelly. Pace says that she had sex multiple times with Kelly before she was 17 (the age of consent in Illinois), that the singer filmed their encounters without permission and that he was abusive towards her on several occasions. Pace’s story follows a July report from Buzzfeed which cited multiple sources accusing Kelly of leading a “cult” that brainwashed young women and kept them confined on two of his properties.
