Much to everyone's surprise, the defense rests

Posted by labelitlove 73 days ago
Much to the surprise of the courtroom gallery, R. Kelly's lawyers rested their case Monday morning after three days of testimony in defense of the R&B singer.

For about 15 minutes, attorneys for both sides handled a few housekeeping matters.

Then Cook County Circuit Judge Vincent Gaughan informed the jury that there would be no testimony today. He told them they were free to stay and have lunch on the county's dime or go home. He told jurors that, if the case stays on course, they should expect closing arguments on Thursday.

With the jury dismissed, the judge began hearings on various motions in the case.
