Griggs says several of Kelly’s enablers from over the years turned on the plat- inum-selling artist and handed over the tapes to in-
vestigators. Those videos led to indictments for multiple sex crimes, including child pornography.
Last month, it was re- vealed an ex-employee testi- fied Kelly “regularly recorded” his sexual encoun- ters with underage girls.
Kelly was arrested while walking his dog in Chicago on Thursday (July 11).
He’s also facing a separate five-count federal indictment from the Eastern District of New York, which includes racketeering and four viola- tions of the Mann Act. Brook- lyn prosecutors hope to keep Kelly behind bars until his trial.

In this bonus clip from the episode, Snoop breaks down his relationship with his for- mer boss, and shares a snip- pet of a new song that he says puts it all in perspective.

shit and being able to do [their] thing,” Snoop said, acknowledging that most people choose to dwell on the negative when it comes to Knight.
“He showed niggas a dif- ferent mentality, that you can be the owner — you could be a boss. You got to highlight that ... they ain’t never going to highlight it. They’ll take credit for that too,” he ex- plains.
Snoop — reiterating that he understood the situation at the time —insists it’s “big love,” and says that they’re tighter than ever.
