UPDATE
3:36 PM PT — U.S. Attorney John Lausch says sentencing for Kelly will range from 10-90 years.
R. Kelly is guilty of 6 of the 13 charges he faced in his Illinois federal case … the jury just came back with its verdict.
The jury convicted him Wednesday on the child pornography counts he faced, but acquitted him on 7 others — including charges of conspiracy and enticement.
Remember, Kelly was facing child pornography charges and prosecutors also accused him of concealing video evidence from his infamous 2008 case and threatening witnesses.
