2 potential R. Kelly jurors tell judge they can't be fair

Two potential jurors questioned in R. Kelly's child pornography trial have told the judge they've already decided the R&B singer is guilty and don't think they can be impartial.

A man told Judge Vincent Gaughan (GAWN) in Chicago Wednesday that from everything he's "seen, heard, read," Kelly is guilty of videotaping himself having sex with a girl as young as 13.

And a woman told the judge she didn't think she could be fair, in part because she has two children and finds pornography "revolting."

Jury selection is in its third day. Eight of sixteen needed panel members already have been chosen.

The 41-year-old Kelly has pleaded not guilty. The Grammy-winning artist faces up to 15 years in prison if convicted.

Three jurors were chosen on Tuesday with 16 to be picked overall.

If jurors find the Grammy-winning artist guilty, he could go to prison for up to 15 years. Kelly has pleaded not guilty.
