Singer R Kelly has been sentenced in the US to 20 years in prison for child abuse material and enticement of minors for sex, but will serve all but one of those simultaneously with a 30-year sentence on racketeering and sex trafficking convictions.US District Judge Harry Leinenweber ordered that Kelly serve one year in prison following the racketeering sentence, imposed last year in New York.The central question going into the sentencing in Kelly's hometown of Chicago was whether Leinenweber would order the 56-year-old Grammy Award winner to serve the sentence simultaneously with or only after he completes the New York term. The latter would have been tantamount to a life sentence.
