Channel 4 News published this video item, entitled “‘R Kelly’s predatory behaviour was an open secret’, author Koa Beck says” – below is their description.
The R&B star R Kelly has been found guilty of running a decades-long scheme to recruit and traffick women and children for sex, after a jury in New York convicted him on all nine of the counts he faced.
His six-week trial heard shocking accounts of abuse and trauma going back more than a quarter of a century, as 11 of his accusers took the stand.
We spoke to the author Koa Beck, who’s the former editor-in chief of feminist news website Jezebel, and began by asking why she thinks it’s taken decades for the accusations against R. Kelly to get to court.
