📅 R. Kelly Scheduled Release: December 21, 2045
R&B singer R. Kelly (Robert Sylvester Kelly) is currently serving long federal prison sentences for racketeering, sex trafficking, and child pornography convictions. According to Bureau of Prisons projections and legal reporting, his release date is scheduled for December 21, 2045. By that time, he would be about 78–79 years old.
🧑⚖️ Why This Release Date?
Kelly was sentenced to:
-
30 years in prison for racketeering and sex trafficking in New York, and
-
20 years for child pornography and related offenses in Chicago, with most of that running concurrently with the New York sentence.
Because the sentences largely overlap and good-time credits are applied, the federal Bureau of Prisons lists Dec. 21, 2045 as his projected release date — barring changes from successful appeals, legal motions, or other judicial actions.
📌 Age at Release
Born in 1967, Kelly would be around 78–79 years old by December 2045, assuming the release schedule holds.
