   An advisor close to convicted sex trafficker R. Kelly pleaded   
   guilty to harassing and intimidating one of the ex-R&B singer’s   
   victims, federal prosecutors announced Tuesday.   
      
   Chicago native Donnell Russell, the self-described manager for   
   Kelly, pleaded guilty to interstate stalking in Brooklyn federal   
   court after he was accused of threatening to reveal sexually   
   explicit photos of the victim, according to the US Attorney’s   
   Office for the Eastern District of New York.   
      
   Russell warned the victim he would publicly reveal her sexual   
   history if she did not withdraw a civil lawsuit she filed   
   against Kelly, prosecutors said. He demanded she “cease her   
   participation and association with organizers” of a “negative   
   campaign” against the “I Believe I Can Fly” singer.   
      
   Kelly, whose real name is Robert Sylvester Kelly, was convicted   
   in September 2021 for sexually abusing women and underage girls   
   and boys over the course of decades.   
      
   Russell’s guilty plea is only the latest legal trouble for the   
   Kelly loyalist.   
      
   On Friday, he was found guilty of threatening harm by interstate   
   communication after he called in an active-shooter threat to a   
   private Manhattan club showing a screening of the Lifetime   
   docuseries “Surviving R. Kelly” in 2018.   
      
   US Attorney Breon Peace slammed Russell in a statement Monday   
   for using “threats, harassment and intimidation in a deliberate   
   effort to silence one of R. Kelly’s victims and prevent her   
   voice from being heard.”   
      
   “When his initial effort failed, he continued his vile campaign   
   by sending threatening messages to Jane Doe and her mother, and   
   publishing explicit photos of the victim on the internet before   
   and after Kelly was indicted.   
      
   “As this prosecution makes clear, the defendant’s conduct was   
   not only reprehensible, but it was also criminal and will not be   
   tolerated.”   
      
   Federal prosecutors outline how Russell cruelly harassed the   
   victim and people close to her from November 2018 to February   
   2020.   
      
   In November 2018, Russell helped send a letter with attachments   
   purportedly written by Kelly to the victim’s Brooklyn lawyer   
   that included cropped nude photos of the victim, the feds said.   
   The text in the letter stated, “the next two pictures have been   
   cropped for the sake of not exposing her extremities to the   
   world, yet!!!”   
      
   The following month, Russell, using the alias, Colon Dunn, sent   
   a blitz of texts to the victim and her mother with the same nude   
   photos, stating “Just a sample.  We will seek criminal charges.   
   You’ve been warned,” and “Publishing soon.”   
      
   He also texted “[T]his is Colon.”   
      
   At the start of 2019, he again texted the victim and her mother,   
   “Pull the plug or you will be exposed.”   
      
   Also in January 2019, he began a Facebook page intended to   
   defend Kelly and posted text exchanges between Kelly and the   
   victim with the same sexually explicit pics, prosecutors said.   
   The Facebook page was “Surviving Lies,” which was a play on the   
   “Surviving R. Kelly” series.   
      
   And then in January 2020, he again showed the sexually explicit   
   photos during live interviews with vloggers over YouTube who   
   supported Kelly amid his mounting legal troubles.   
      
   He could face five years in prison.
