Under neo-Colonialist, Bill Clinton it became a federal crime to avoid making child support payments. Without thinking, such a law seems like a good idea. Incarcerating men (well over 90% are men) for failure to pay child support is counter-productive. No need for me to explain why it is counter-productive. The reason anyone is incarcerated is to protect society from dangerous individuals.

Just look at him, look at his face, he is one guilty man.
Look out!

11:52 AM PT -- R. Kelly just showed up to court in a black sprinter van accompanied by his legal team. We're told the child support hearing is set to begin any minute now.
1:35 PM PT -- Deputies just escorted R. Kelly out of the courtroom, and he's been arrested. No official word from court, but it would appear he didn't cough up the $161k.
2:03 PM PT -- The Cook County Sheriff's Office tells TMZ ... R. Kelly's headed to jail for failure to pay child support. He'll need to cough up the full amount of dough to be released.
2:19 PM PT -- R. Kelly has just been led away in handcuffs.

7:27 PM PT -- It's turning out to be a long day for Kelly. Chief James Craig of the Detroit PD just confirmed to TMZ that roughly a month ago they got information from Chicago PD about an alleged victim, "who made allegations of a criminal sexual conduct incident against R. Kelly."
He states the incident potentially occurred in Detroit back in 2001 -- when the alleged victim was 13. They are currently working on following up with her and her attorney.
This guy would be barely believable but hilarious parody if he wasn't such a scumbag.

Due to R. Kelly's lack of money, he can no longer afford top level legal representation. If he had OJ's original Dream Team, Kelly would not have done interview. Did Kelly's current attorney tell him: I don't have a case, go win the case on a morning interview show.

Cosby would have made some calls. Cosby would have called fifteen or so other wealthy friends. Cosby, under different circumstances would have quietly caught up R Kelly's back child support. It would have been a win win for a lot of people.
My God this is a home run of a comment. I am a landlord in a predominately black neighborhood and what you said was spot on.

Because you are a landlord, that also makes you an expert on faux problem of blacks on juries? We never read comments, even off the record from prosecutors complaining.
The racist attacks continue in the media.

The dude was guilty 10 years ago. The dude is guilty today. He won’t last in prison. Child rapists usually don’t.

Rapists/assaulters of women/assaulters of kids go to prison on a daily basis. Yes, Jeffrey Dahmer was killed in prison. Anyone else you care to list?
