CHICAGO - R&B singer R. Kelly was denied bail on Tuesday after federal prosecutors charged him last week with running an interstate racketeering scheme that trafficked women and girls for sex. U.S. District Judge Harry Leinenweber cited obstruction of justice charges, among 18 federal counts filed against the Grammy-winning singer, as the main reason for his decision not to grant bail during the hearing at a federal courthouse in downtown Chicago.
