Another Alleged R. Kelly Tape Has Been Found, This Time By A Couple Who Were Cleaning Out Their House (News Conference)

Following the second alleged R. Kelly tape found last month, a new tape has resurfaced by the help of a Pennsylvania couple.

Gary Dennis and his wife Sallie found a the new alleged tape after cleaning out old VHS tapes in their house. Garry turned the tape over to famed attorney Gloria Allred, who says the tape appears to show Kelly sexually abusing underage girls.

During a news conference Sunday in New York City, Allred said Gary contacted her after finding the VHS video, which she then helped him turn over the “potential evidence” to the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York. 

“Sallie and her husband (Gary) discovered, to their surprise, that they had a VHS tape that could be helpful in learning what had happened to these young girls who came into contact with R. Kelly,” Allred said. “Sallie and Gary felt that they had a moral duty to provide the tape to law enforcement.”

Dennis located the tape while cleaning out a box of VHS tapes that has been at his Pennsylvania home for years. He found a sports tape labeled “R. Kelly,” which he assumed was a recorded concert video.

“To my shock and surprise, R. Kelly appeared to be on the tape, but not in concert,” Dennis said. “Instead, he was sexually abusing underage African-American girls.”
