 A jury Friday found R&B not guilty in his child pornography trial.
The verdict came six years after the R&B superstar was first charged with videotaping himself having sex with a young girl. Prosecutors had said she was as young as 13 at the time. Kelly had faced a maximum 15 years in prison. Both Kelly and the now 23-year-old alleged victim had denied they were the ones appearing on the tape, which was played for the jury at the beginning and end of the trial. The prosecution’s star witness was a woman who said she engaged in three-way sex with Kelly and the girl from the video. Defense attorneys argued the man on the tape didn’t have a large mole on his back, as Kelly does.  Be first to comment this article |  Add as favourites (47) | Views: 119

Manila: The Philippine Medical Association (PMA) is amending its code of ethics after a rectal surgery scandal in a central Philippines hospital was posted on YouTube. Rey Santos, incoming PMA president, said the amended code of ethics is expected to be approved when physicians come for their general assembly next month. Admitting that doctors' image have been "tainted" lately because of the "unfortunate event" in Cebu City where a rectal surgery of a male patient was posted on YouTube, Santos noted the importance of strengthening the ethical guidelines for physicians. Unethical behaviour Santos said the behaviour of the medical team who operated on a 39-year-old patient with a body spray canister stuck in his rectum was "highly unethical".

 Two people are under investigation for alleged fraud after attempting to launch a fashion line using George Clooney’s name, police in Milan said Thursday.
Authorities said they seized garments and watches Wednesday, as well as fake documentation for the line, which was to be launched in Milan next week, according to the ANSA news agency. Police said the investigation stemmed from a complaint filed by the actor. “If someone tries to sell you clothes or watches that are based on me, don’t buy them,” Clooney, 46, told reporters Wednesday in Rome, where he was promoting his new film, Leatherheads.” After reports surfaced that Clooney was developing a new fashion line, he issued a statement, saying: “This is a hoax. I have no connection whatsoever with any clothing line bearing my name, and more specifically GC EXCLUSIVE by George Clooney.” Be first to comment this article | Add as favourites (62) | Views: 210 |
