Kelly attorney Sam Adam Jr. has publicly apologized to Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana for dragging her name into the Gary Coleman and X-rated-snowman-filled closing arguments of his client’s trial last week. “This wasn’t a gardener or the man down the street or a janitor,” Adam’s argument went.

R. Kelly Jury Just Glad To Never See The Tape Again
While post-trial commentary has sweated R. Kelly’s fame, the Little Man defense, and other colorful parts of the recently concluded circus, jurors in the six-years-in-the-running child pornography trial claim that the reasonable doubt (or “grayness,” as one juror described it) that resulted in their “not guilty” verdict revolved around the identity of the girl in the video, not as to whether Chuck and Keith had grafted Kelly’s head onto another fellow’s watersports so Stephanie “Sparkle” Edwards and her minions could tarnish Kells’ good name.

Closing Arguments Begin In R. Kelly Trial: A Look Back
Despite the CGI shenanigans and shady witnesses, there really isn’t much for R. Kelly’s jury to deliberate. “It’s not a complicated case,” law professor Leonard Cavise told the Chicago Sun-Times. “You either think it’s her and it’s him [on the tape], or you’re done.” The prosecution, which opened its closing arguments this morning, must convince members of the jury that they are indeed watching R. Kelly get wet and wild with an underage girl. The defense, on the other hand, has to make the jury believe that nobody knows what the hell is on the tape, or how it got there. So how do their cases stack up? MORE »
