Police Show Up To R. Kelly’s Chicago Recording Studio The Night Of His Birthday To Investigate

According to CBS Chicago a law enforcement source confirms police are investigating R. Kelly’s studio following reports of a party being held there for his birthday Tuesday night.

According to the Chicago Police, this was a “business check.”

This comes a day after Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx made an urgent plea for R. Kelly sexual abuse victims to come forward.

Officials confirm they have received calls after Foxx’s plea.

“Please come forward,” Foxx said in a press conference. “There is nothing that can be done to investigate these allegations without the cooperation of both victims and witnesses.”

A Cook County State’s Attorney representative said officials are “in the process of reviewing and following up on these calls.”

This plea is the result of a documentary about the Kelly, the Chicago born singer and his alleged treatment of women and girls over the last 30 years. The docuseries “Surviving R. Kelly” has sparked a criminal investigation in Georgia.

It’s put the spotlight back on the embattled singer’s alleged troubles, but his lawyer is dismissing the allegations.

Kelly’s attorney Stephen Greenberg is calling Foxx’s request for victims to come forward “absurd.”

Greenberg says the state’s attorney shouldn’t be soliciting cases, adding there are no current complaints and no evidence because “it didn’t happen.”

Chicago cops reportedly came knocking on R. Kelly’s recording studio doors on Tuesday evening (Jan. 8).

TMZ reports that law enforcement made a visit to the R&B singer’s westside studio, the same place where parents of alleged R. Kelly victim Azriel Clary tried to see their daughter at in episode six of the Surviving R. Kelly docuseries. The place is one TMZ calls a “sex den.”

Local authorities told the outlet that the studio was vacant at the time. They also added that police went to the facility because it gotten so much publicity from the Lifetime docuseries. Officers plan to do a routine check on the studio from time to time. Interestingly, Kelly’s recording studio is currently up for sale in the real estate market.

The Fulton County, Georgia, district attorney would not comment on the reports of an investigation into Kelly.
