For the past few weeks, R. Kelly has been at the center of controversy over “sex cult” claims at his Atalanta and Chicago homes. Eventually, the claims appeared to be bogus, given that the women are all said to be of legal age and stated that they want to live there. Well, now there are two Georgia officials who seem to think that Kellz’s living arrangements need to be further investigated.
Why Official Is Calling For Criminal Investigation
The Atlanta Journal Constitution reported that Fulton County Chairman, John Eaves, held a press conference today (8-11-17), calling for a criminal investigation into the ‘cult’ claims. Eaves says that although he is NOT accusing Kellz of being guilty, nor innocent, at this time, he believes there is new info, about allegations against Kelly, that is sufficient enough to at least warrant an investigation:
“A detailed local investigation by the John Creek Police Department has provided key information that we believe is enough evidence that gives the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office all it needs to advance a criminal investigation of the well-known allegations,” Eaves stated just before the press conference.

As we previously reported, Kelly has repeatedly denied the ‘sex slave’ allegations. He and his rep also threatened to take legal action against the two parents ,and the three former female acquaintances of his, who made the claims that he’s holding women hostage inside his Atlanta and Chicago homes and using them as sex slaves.
Prior to now, it was reported that police checked into the situation at Kelly’s home and found no evidence of wrongdoing. Also, Jocelyn Savage, the 21 year old daughter of the two parents who made the claims, stated, in video interviews, that she is not a hostage and wants to remain where she is. She also revealed that her father was the one who sent her to live with Kelly a few years ago.
In addition to Jocelyn, the family of another unnamed woman, who reportedly refers to Kelly as ‘her man,’ said that Kelly isn’t doing anything legally wrong to the young ladies at the home. But the family instead claimed that Kellz showers his women with so many expensive gifts, trips, and lavish lifestyles, that they become “dependent” on him and ultimately and don’t want to leave him, nor the lifestyle behind.
As far as this new possible criminal investigation, we’ll have to sit back and wait to see what the actual charges are and what the officials can legally prove within them.
