According to CBS News, R. Kelly was sentenced to 30 years in prison in the New York case, where he was convicted of racketeering and s$x trafficking, and most of his 20-year sentence in the Chicago case is running concurrently to that prison term. All of his appeals have been denied so far.

He is currently serving his prison sentence at a medium-security federal correctional center in Butner, North Carolina, and is scheduled to be released on December 21, 2045 at nearly 79 years old.
