When singer R. Kelly was arrested earlier this year on sex abuse charges, south suburban restaurateur Valencia Love paid his $100,000 bail to get him out of the Cook County jail.


Then, a few months later, Kelly was arrested on federal charges out of New York and Chicago, and ordered held in federal detention where he remains awaiting his trials in those courts.


It led an attorney for Love to ask a Cook County judge on Tuesday to give her back her money.


"There's been a substantial change in circumstances," attorney John Collins told Cook County Judge Lawrence Flood. "She didn't know that New York was gonna indict, she didn't know that Minnesota was gonna indict. She didn't know that Northern District of Illinois was gonna indict."

She shouldn't have paid his bail.

 

[Kaiken]

She want's it back to pay for Kelly's attorneys.

 

[Frankie Williamson]

WOOPS.

 

[TaySan]

That's on her for being a dumbass and bailing him out.

 

[Heromanz]

They should probably give it back

I learned the other day that if you post someone's Bail you are actually responsible for making sure they show up to court and that if they don't you can be held liable for there inability to show up to court. I wouldn't post bail for anyone but the closet family.

 

[I Don't Like]

I don't think that's how it works.

 

[LewieP]

Zero sympathy.

 

[Dennis8K]

[Cation]

[BlackFyre]

Can someone explain how bail works?

How can she get that 100k back?

what's the refund policy on bail money

 

[Professor Beef]

Why can't she get it back?

Under normal circumstances, if someone pays cash then they can only get it back if the defendant makes all required court appearances (which Kelly has not iirc). You don't get to get your money back like you bought a lemon.

She wouldn't have gotten that money back anyway since the bond agency charges a 10% fee on the million dollar bail. But now she's worried that Kelly won't be able to pay it back.

 

[Squarehard]

They should make her pay another $100k, just because she's an idiot supporting a pedophile rapist in the first place.

 

[Strike]

Buyer's remorse. No take-backs!

 

[I am a Bird]

Who the hell thinks its a good idea to pay R Kelly's bail?

 

[SolidChamp]

Did they tell her that her money is trapped in the closet? That might help to clear everything up.

 

[greektony]

Lmao
