...With his own songs, like "Bump N' Grind," Kelly was hardly shy about his sexual proclivities. In 1994, Kelly married one of his earliest proteges, the singer Aaliyah. She was apparently just 15 years old, but said she was 18; the marriage was annulled. But as Kelly's fame grew, so, too, did word on the street that he liked to prowl suburban shopping malls and even a downtown Chicago McDonald's for young women.

It begins with silence in the face of outrage, then blooms into anger (usually at the media), followed by the defiant continuation of the very...
Past BSA presidents Brandon A. Gayle ’03, Charles M. Moore ’04 and Aaliyah N. Williams ’02 also weighed in on Lee’s accusations. In an e-mail to ABHW, they wrote that both Gayle and Moore have seen the questionable ballot that was discounted in the final 63-63 tally...
