You Say TomayTOE, I Say TomAHto

Filed under: Legal Matters > R. Kelly

The court drama continues in R. Kelly's child pornography case.

It turns out the defense is trying to use R. Kelly's mole like they did with O.J. Simpson's glove.

If the mole isn't on film is fake, it ain't him!

Now, a new forensic video analyst has just testified that the blemish on R. Kelley's back is not identical to the "dark mark" seen on the man in the video.

Apparently, Kelly's mole looks like a caterpillar-shaped mark along his spine.

Sexy!

So what exactly are they watching on the tape? ???

Well, turns out you can only see R. Kelly's back in the video for less than a second! Analysts have had to freeze-frame the image to point out the mole they can see to the left of the spine.

However, yesterday Kelly's team brought in their own expert who claimed the markings were "artifacts" which were only created due to the tapes poor quality and multiple copies.

Of course his expert is gonna say that!

The analyst, Charles Palm, cropped the almost half-second footage into about 23 individual frames.

And the mark along the spine?

It can only be seen in two of the frames. The rest of the frames show no marking.

Interesting.

Palm says, "There were marks on the [man's back] that came and went. Basically, they are artifacts that bled into the image."

To reinforce the idea, defense attorney Marc Martin showed each frame and asked Palm whether he saw a mole.

And to counter the remark made by the prosecution that it would take about 44 years to create such a perfectly, doctored video, Palm stated that a professional could have easily added in the mole.

And to help prove his point, he showed a video he made in which the two people on tape just disappear from the room in which it was recorded. And then showed another clip where he removed their heads. He said both editings took him just two afternoons.

But one thing Palm couldn't do was confirm the video had been doctored.

To that he said, "With this quality of video, you really can't tell one way or the other."

Kelly should just try and work out a plea deal, says we. That'd be the safe bet!

    No he should not pay off the victim. He needs to go to jail. He fucked a 13 year old. What's the difference between Warren Jeffs fucking a 13 year old kid and R Kelly fucking a 13 year old kid. they both need to pay. It's sick and R Kelly and his lame ass gang sign he flashes for every photo needs to go to jail where they can rape his sorry ass every day.

    If you're moving, in a low quality vid, the mark on his back could EASILY blur to "nothing". If it was still, you may see it for just a fraction of a second. I can not believe the prosecution's expert would not testify to this.

  23. Viri says – reply to this


    23

    He's guilty but all they have to do is show reasonable doubt and he's off.

    You say he should make a deal because you're a stupid, self-righteous SOB who AUTOMATICALLY assumes that whenever the fascist police and prosecutors in this country accuse someone of a crime, then that person is AUTOMATICALLY guilty. If you ran a country the rule would be guilty until proven innocent. The most recent example of that is when you slandered the California schoolteacher who had been set up by his crazy ex-wife. Before that was when Vanilla Ice's crazy ass wife lied to the cops about him beating her up. You're not a lawyer Perez and you're obviously completely ignorant of both the Constitution and the judicial system. You're a MORON if you think he should make a deal. Not that someone at your level of ignorance would ever know this, but, in a CRIMINAL trial the state has to prove it's case BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT. It is very unlikely that the state will meet that burden in this case. So why don't you keep your uninformed opinions to yourself? I am quite certain that R. Kelly's very highly paid lawyers have a much better grasp of the case against him and a significantly more informed legal strategy than a vapid, gossip columnist who is clearly illiterate on the topic of basic U.S. civics.

    Well shit, if they can argue things added in vids… What will this world come to? we won't be able to prove anyone guilty!

    Perez You are disgusting to think "caterpillar-shaped mark along his spine.Sexy!" Turned on By a child Rapist very DISGUSTING!!

  30. kellik says – reply to this

    I do not think the prosecution has proved he is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Its America, people, innocent until proven guilty. Follow the case, read the facts of the trial.

    The mere fact that the "victim" claims she is not on the tape means there is reasonable doubt.

  31. Rossa says – reply to this

    Hmm, the "dark mark"? I think we all know who it really was in the tape… VOLDEMORT.

    Re: Tina L – People should never settle out of court on charge of criminal molestation money is not going to fix the damage that this has caused the victim.No child molester should be free to hurt aqgain because he has money,a very sick injustice!!!!!!You are absolutely right,this goes for Jeffs,Jacko and anyone else

  38. jeff says – reply to this


    38

    Sounds like reasonable doubt to me! This Douche bag child molester will get off. What a great judicial system the US has????? Does anyone remember Micheal Jackson? Celebrity superseeds justice i guess!!!!!

  39. M says – reply to this


    39

    Oh yeah, because whoever doctored the video knew exactly what his freakish mole looked like right?

  40. BB says – reply to this


    40

    GUILTY. We ALL know he's a pervert. He's settled two cases before on child molestation, stating that he did it to protect his emerging career…sure. He married Aaliyah when she was 15 and he knew damn well how old she was. I'm betting he goes to jail, hopefully justice will be served!

    People in the world are so damn hipocritical. Everyone is so quick to hang this man out to dry, but when those pictures of Miley Cyrus came out, all of yall wanted to see her little young ass on the cover of a magazine. I was watching an episode of NEXt on MTV and a dude on there had comments on his profile saying that he is turned on by the teenieBOPPER and he was well over 18.

    I am not agreeing that sex with minors is acceptable by any means, but the public needs to make these little girls accountable too. This world is a cold place and they need to be taught to stop giving their goodies away like lollipops.

    I am still a huge fan of R. Kelly's music and if he did do the things on the video, I hope he gets rehabilitated.



  46. 46

    Are you fucking joking? A plea deal? He had sex and pissed on a minor..She didnt know any better other than it was R. Kelly..Are you fucking insane PEEREZ???? YOU are slipping..Your 15 minutes of fame are up!! Your show is no longer on tv, you make fun of Ed McMahon and his woes..You call children sluts…you make fun of dead babies…Why so angry?
