R. Kelly Bond Money Won’t Be Returned, Judge Says

CHICAGO (CelebrityAccess) – A judge in R. Kelly’s Illinois sexual assault case has refused to return the $100,000 in bail money Kelly’s friend paid back in February to secure the singer’s release from county jail, reports The Associated Press.

The judge reportedly ruled that papers signed by restauranteur Valencia Love clearly indicated she could lose the money.

Meanwhile, Love’s lawyer is reportedly claiming that his client, who paid 10% of the $1 million bond, didn’t know that Kelly would be charged federally and is now concerned she’ll loose all of the money as the charges against him continue to grow, reports the AP.
