Ex-employee Suzette Mayweather testifies that R. Kelly once forced his girlfriends to fight each other after “twerking for cake” at his birthday party in 2016.
Despite the media not having direct access to R. Kelly’s ongoing sex trafficking trial in New York, reporters from several outlets have still been able to provide updates by watching the trial in overflow rooms. As the trial continues, those updates have grown increasingly heinous, as witnesses and alleged victims have claimed that the disgraced singer has done everything from entrapping teenagers to forcing his sexual partners to write fake blackmail letters.
One of the most recent witnesses to take the stand was Suzette Mayweather, an ex-employee of R. Kelly’s who used to work for him alongside her twin sister for more than a year. According to Complex, Mayweather was subpoenaed to testify against her former boss, and when on the stand, she claimed that R. Kelly once punished some of his girlfriends who were “twerking for cake” at his birthday party in 2016 by making them fight each other.
According to Complex, Suzette Mayweather is now the fourth former employee of R. Kelly’s to testify against the disgraced singer, and thus far, her testimony aligns with that of his other ex-employees, especially in regards to the singer’s allegedly strict rules about interacting with his girlfriends.
R. Kelly pleaded not guilty to all of the charges brought against him. However, troubling testimonies from witnesses and former employees continue to surface, so stay tuned for more updates in his New York sex trafficking trial.
