It's not clear as to who arranged the release for Mr. Kelly’s, however, his lawyer, Steven Greenberg, reported that an unidentified person posted the bond and wished to remain in the dark.

Last month, Kelly got into custody with 10 counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse. He stayed a weekend with a woman in jail who claims herself to be the friend posting a $100,000 bond. 

However, the chief policy officer for the Cook County, Cara Smith, who runs the jail, wished to remain anonymous about who handed the check to the county clerk’s office.

Greenberg also noted that he won't discuss the child support payment because of a judge’s order in that case.

While marching home from the Cook County Jail in Chicago, Mr. Kelly said to the press waiting outside for him;

“I promise you, we’re going to straighten all this stuff out,” 

Apart from the untold truth, Kelly talked about the allegation proclaiming that he'd done nothing wrong. During an interview with Gayle King of CBS This Morning on Wednesday, last week, Mr. Kelly screamingly jumps out from his chair fighting for the crime he didn't commit.

Assuming he didn't commit anything hazardous, Mr. Kelly ranted about being assassinated by the false allegations of sexual abuse leading him to face the criminal charges last month.

Meanwhile, Ed Genson, the former criminal defense lawyer of Mr. Kelly, admits that Kelly is 'guilty as hell.' He said that he doesn't think R. Kelly did anything inappropriate for years. He kept Kelly from going to prison after suggesting him to take libido-killing shots.
