A Chicago prosecutor is dropping sexual abuse and assault charges against singer R Kelly, who is already facing decades in prison after being convicted of federal charges.

Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx has said her office " will no longer be pursuing these indictments" and will ask a judge to dismiss those charges.

" Sometimes justice is served even when there is no conviction, " She Said .

The charges date back to As Far as 1998.

Kelly, 56, was convicted in 2021 on racketeering and Sex Trafficking charges, and sentenced to 30 years in prison.

" Due to the extensive sentences that these convictions hold, our office has decided not to continue to expend our limited resources and court time with the indictments that we previously charged Mr. Kelly, " Ms Foxx said.

She Said resources will be put to better use to prosecute other sexual offenders.

In 2019, Ms Foxx had urged victims to come forward in order to bring charges against Kelly.

" I have spent nearly twenty years hoping that my abuser would be brought to justice for what he did to me, " She Said , " With today's announcement, all hope of justice for My Case is gone. "

Kelly also faces a sexual misconduct case in Hennepin County Minnesota, but that case has been paused during the ongoing federal cases as Well .
