CHICAGO (AP) — A woman who snapped photos of R. Kelly in a courtroom with her cell phone has pleaded guilty to contempt of court after spending the weekend in jail.
Jean Johnson, 49, was sentenced to five days in jail after entering the plea Monday, but she was released after Judge Vincent Gaughan gave her credit for the days she had already spent in custody. He also ordered her cell phone destroyed.
Describing herself as Kelly's "biggest fan," Johnson said she couldn't resist snapping four grainy pictures of the R&B superstar as he sat across from her last Thursday.
She said she didn't realize cameras weren't allowed in courtrooms.
"I feel stupid," Johnson said. "I just got carried away. I'm a big fan of R. Kelly. I wanted it so that every time my phone rang, I could open it up and he'd be right there."
Johnson had been in court to resolve a probation violation charge. Kelly faces child pornography charges.
Now how nutty can one actually be? Lawd, she didn't know that cameras weren't allowed in court rooms? Yeah.....okay. Whatever you say. LOL, her silly ass is in jail for taking a picture of R. Kelly in court. What type of shyt is that? SMDH.
HER LYING ASS! SHE KNOW DAMN WELL NO CAMERAS ARE ALLOWED IN THE COURTROOM. HELL CAMERA PHONES AREN'T EVEN ALLOWED, SOME COURTHOUSES JUST DON'T CHECK FOR THEM ALL THE TIME. SHE WAS GOING TO TRY AND GET SOME CASH FOR THOSE PHOTOS. 49y/o AND DOESN'T KNOW THAT CAMERAS AREN'T ALLOWED IN A COURTROOM. HELL I KNEW THAT AT THE AGE OF 12 WHEN OUR CLASS TOOK A TRIP TO THE LOCAL COURTHOUSE.
