Friend recognises tape girl - court
12:53pm Thursday 22nd May 2008
A childhood friend of the alleged victim in the R Kelly child pornography case has said she recognised her long-time friend in the explicit video at the centre of the case.
Twenty-four-year-old Simha Jamison testified that she and the alleged victim were best friends for about ten years.
Jamison says she and her friend visited the R&B star at his recording studio and at a Chicago basketball court dozens of times starting when they were around 12.
And she says they visited the home where authorities say the sex tape was filmed.
Defence attorneys plan to cross-examine Jamison.
Kelly has pleaded not guilty to charges that accuse him of videotaping himself having sex with an under-aged girl.
