After testimony from 45 witnesses over 20 days, federal prosecutors in Brooklyn are resting their case against R. Kelly. Jurors have heard from witnesses ranging from former live-in girlfriends of the singer to his former employees, many of whom were subpoenaed to testify against the singer. Kelly faces racketeering and sex trafficking charges, which he has pleaded not guilty to.
