Three men charged with threatening women in R Kelly abuse case

Federal prosecutors have announced charges against three men accused of threatening and intimidating women who have accused R&B singer R Kelly of abuse, including one man suspected of setting fire to a vehicle in Florida.
A long-time friend of the indicted singer offered to pay a victim $500,000 to keep her from co-operating in Kelly’s prosecution, authorities said, while a manager and adviser of Kelly threatened to release sexually explicit photographs of a woman who sued Kelly.
