RnB superstar, Robert Sylvester Kelly, better known as R. Kelly, has reacted after a jury found him guilty of sex trafficking.

The singer was found guilty of exploiting his superstar status to run a scheme to sexually abuse women and children over two decades.

Eleven accusers, consisting of nine women and two men, took the stand over the six-week trial to describe sexual humiliation and violence at his hands.

After two days of deliberation, the jury found Kelly guilty on all the charges he was facing.

Sentencing is due on 4 May and he could spend the rest of his life behind bars.
