NEW YORK (AP) – The management team of R. Kelly has declined comment on a lawsuit filed by a woman accusing the singer of sexual battery, knowingly infecting her with herpes and locking her in rooms for punishment.
Faith Rodgers says in the suit filed Monday in New York that she met Kelly about a year ago after a concert in San Antonio, Texas.
The 20-year-old says that during their relationship Kelly “mentally, sexually and verbally” abused her.
R. Kelly is one of pop music’s best-selling artists, with hits including “Ignition,” ”I Believe I Can Fly,” and “Bump N’ Grind.”
