Criminal sexual abuse is a class 2 felony in Illinois. Each of the 10 charges carries a max sentence of three to seven years in prison.
Lawyer Michael Avenatti handed over to authorities a second tape of whom he believes is Kelly having sex with a minor. He also confirmed that a third tape exists. The testimony of two new accusers likely attributed to the charges being filed.
Kelly was found not guilty of child pornography in 2008, when the initial tape was shown as evidence.
