Five jurors who met with the press after the R. Kelly trial admitted that they “absolutely believed” that it was the famed R&B artist on the tape that allegedly showed an adult male having sex with an underage girl, according to a story posted on TMZ.com. However, the jurors felt as though they could not reach a guilty verdict because they believed there was “not enough evidence to prosecute.”

The version of the tape that was played in court was a lot clearer than the somewhat distorted version that was making the rounds on the internet, thus making it easier to tell if it was actually R. Kelly engaging in the sex acts on the tape. The jurors said they were “absolutely disgusted” by what they saw on tape, but stated that the fact that the alleged victim did not cooperate with the prosecution and did not testify at the trial played a big part in their reaching the not guilty verdict.
