R Kelly in the dock

If R Kelly had waited as long for making his video as he had for going on trial for it, he'd never have gotten in this mess. At long last, it seems, Kelly is going to appear next month to answer child porn video charges. Kelly's apparently thrilled at the prospect:

"He is looking forward to finally having his day in court. He's confident that when all the facts come out, it will be clear he's not guilty of any crime."

Oddly, we don't recall Kelly having been pushing very much for a court date. He pleads not guilty to charges relating to the alleged filming of a sexual encounter.
