Surprise witness, Lisa Van Allen, took the stand Monday at the criminal trial of R & B's sensation R. Kelly. His trial is being held at the Mammoth Cook County Criminal Courthouse, near downtown Chicago. R. Kelly is charged with 14 counts of child pornography due to contents from a 10 year old VHS tape. R. Kelly has pleaded not guilty. If convicted, he faces up to 15 years in prison.
The alleged victim, 13 at the time, now a woman ten years later, has consistently denied being on the tape. She says this is a criminal case without a victim. However, Lisa Van Allen, the now 27 year old woman, testified that she had several 3-way encounters with R. Kelly and the alleged "underage" victim in the R. Kelly child pornography trial.
Lisa Van Allen said that she met R. Kelly while they were taping a music video in Georgia 10 years ago. She appeared in several of his music videos, including one for the song I Wish in which she braids the singer's hair.
