McGee said she used to live with Robert Sylvester Kelly, better known as R&B artist R. Kelly, at his mansion in Johns Creek about six years ago. She is one of many women accusing him of physically, emotionally and sexually abusing them at his homes in Chicago and North Fulton County.

“To know that we finally got an indictment after two decades, after him getting away with the allegations, it was a joyous moment for me,” she told Channel 2. “Just knowing the things that he was doing to those young girls was really sickening.”

Following the documentary's premiere, TMZ reported the Fulton County District Attorney's Office was investigating the allegations made against Kelly that involve his mansion in Johns Creek. DA spokesman Chris Hopper told AJC.com on Friday the office still has no comment.

However, a no-bail arrest warrant was issued Friday afternoon by Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx in Chicago. She unveiled a grand jury indictment against Kelly that involves four victims, three of them minors at the time of the alleged crimes.
