R. Kelly Slapped With 30-Year Prison Sentence Over Sex Trafficking, Racketeering Charges_我的网站

一 |     Disgraced singer-songwriter R. Kelly was sentenced to 30 years in federal prison on Wednesday, marking the end of a six-week trial in Brooklyn that included testimony from dozens of witnesses, including those who accused the 55-year-old of both sexual and physical abuse.,The US Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York was aiming for Kelly to be given at least 25 years behind bars, per a June 8 memo. The filing set forth that Kelly, now 55, should spend the rest of his life behind bars due to the fact he "avoided punishment for almost 30 years and must now be held to account.",Kelly's attorneys argued their client should only serve a decade behind bars because he "experienced a traumatic childhood involving severe, prolonged childhood sexual abuse, poverty, and violence.”,During sentencing Wednesday afternoon, US District Judge Ann M. Donnelly stated to the court that “the public has to be protected from behaviors like this.”,"These crimes were calculated and carefully planned and regularly executed for almost 25 years," Donnelly said, as reported by the New York Times.,The judge recounted a number of testimonies during sentencing, highlighting Kelly's pattern of sexual abuse and violence against women, girls, and boys.,Kelly's legal team plans to appeal the sentencing.,"We were prepared for it," said defense attorney Jennifer Bonjean, who represented disgraced comedian Bill Cosby in a civil case he lost earlier this month.

"He poses a serious danger to the public.",Lizzette Martinez, a woman featured in the documentary 'Surviving R. Kelly,' was accompanied by her attorney Gloria Allred when she took the stand to provide a witness statement.,"January 1995 eventually changed me forever," Martinez testified, detailing that she was a 17-year-old aspiring singer when she met Kelly in a mall.,Now 45, Martinez told the court that she was "left in shock, confused, and in tears" when Kelly, who promised to mentor her, began to abuse her.,“Robert, you destroyed so many people’s lives,” Martinez told Kelly, who did not make eye contact.,YouTube Deletes Two R. Kelly’s Channels Amid Sex-Trafficking Conviction6 October 2021, 09:18 GMT,“I do not know how to put a price on all I’ve gone through,” she said. “I am now 45, a mother and I struggle with mental health.”,Rumors and even footage of Kelly's misdeeds with minors and women have been circulating since the 90s, around the same time Kelly married teenage R&B artist Aaliyah. Despite dozens of alleged victims coming forward over the decades, accountability appeared to avoid Kelly until the 2019 documentary "Surviving R. Kelly" coincided with the #MeToo movement.,The intersection of the #MuteRKelly and #MeToo movements drummed up public support for victims seeking litigation against the Grammy-award-winning singer. Kelly is still facing a number of criminal charges in Chicago, Illinois, and Minnesota.,Kelly has remained behind bars since his initial arrest in July 2019. The singer-songwriter did not take the stand during trial.。    NBA最新消息，又是一条退役新闻。

二 |          根据名记Evan Sidery报道，2008年乐透秀埃里克·戈登即将退役，结束自己18年的职业生涯。         回看这18个年头，戈登先后效力快船、黄蜂/鹈鹕、火箭、太阳、76人，5支球队，个人薪资累计1.9亿。         仅仅看这几个数字，戈登这段职业生涯其实已经比大多数球员都成功了，只是从离开的节点来看，戈登的谢幕多少还是有些落寞。

三 |          这也是埃里克·戈登最扎心的地方，从今年2月被灰熊裁掉后，这位后卫一直没有找到下家；对于一位曾在NBA站稳轮换的球员，这种安静局面其实已经很说明问题了。         但其实往前一年，2024年休赛期的戈登还不至于如此。         当时的戈登和76人签下一份两年合同，第二年附带球员选项；而往前一年看，他在太阳依旧能贡献11分1.8篮板2助攻的出色数据。         特别是对比戈登而言，他的价值不仅仅在于基础数据，三分空间、比赛经验、关键时刻的硬解能力，这些标签加在一起，确实值得争冠球队一个位置。         但意外的是，在加盟76人后，戈登的下滑速度明显加快了。

四 |          2024-25赛季，场均出场时间下降到19.7分钟，基础数据6.8分1.2篮板1.7助攻0.7抢断，甚至出勤上也不占优势，仅仅只打了39场。         但即便如此，在40.9%的三分命中率下，当时的戈登其实还不能说完全没用。         随后来到去年夏天，戈登选择跳出原合同，和76人重签了一份一年363万的底薪合同；球队通过合同处理缓解薪资压力，而戈登则获得了一部分加薪，看似好消息，但这也成了他NBA生涯的倒计时。         2025-26赛季，格莱姆斯逐渐进入球队轮换，再加上76人选中埃奇库姆，球队后卫线也进一步压缩，戈登自然直接跌出轮换了。

五 |          整个赛季，戈登只为76人打了6场比赛，场均出场12.3分钟，仅能得到5.5分0.3篮板0.5助攻。         多项数据下跌到职业生涯最低之后，在交易截止日前，76人选择把他送往灰熊；而灰熊也没有把他当作球队未来计划，交易完成后便将其裁掉。         进入自由市场之后，半年时间没有任何签约消息，而再出现在媒体面前，就是他的退役消息了。         在这个节点，回头去看看戈登这18年生涯，其实已经相当精彩了。         2008年，戈登在首轮第7顺位进入联盟，快船时期一度被球队视作未来核心，而后转战黄蜂依然站稳球队首发，再到火箭更是打出了自己的第六人巅峰；离开火箭之后，也打出了不少老将高光。         理性来看，这段职业生涯确实有遗憾，没有全明星，也没有冠军；但换个角度看，一个08年首轮7号秀，能在NBA坚持18个赛季，赚到1.868亿，这已经是一种成功了。         所以，最后把这个问题留给球迷讨论：          对于埃里克·戈登，你对于他的这段职业生涯如何评价呢？。
