Trial witness says R. Kelly demanded she 'dress like a Girl Scout” during sexual encounters.
returned to the witness stand on Thursday, weeping when a prosecutor asked her to read out loud from a journal entry describing how he allegedly beat and choked her the last time they were together in 2010.
Pace resumed her testimony in Brooklyn federal court a day after telling jurors she was a 16-year-old virgin and a member of R. Kelly’s fan club when he invited her to his mansion in 2010. While there, she said, she was told to follow “Rob’s rules” — edicts restricting how she could dress, who she could speak with and when she could use the bathroom.She said R.
The questioning fit a theme that defense lawyers have repeatedly pushed early in the trial: R. Kelly was victimized by groupies who hounded him at shows and afterward, only to turn against him years later when public sentiment shifted against him, they allege. The Associated Press doesn’t name alleged victims of sexual abuse without their consent unless they have shared their identities publicly. Pace has appeared in a documentary and participated in media interviews.
