Lindsey Perryman, who worked for R. Kelly as an assistant on and off from 1999 to 2006, identified both R. Kelly and the alleged victim in her testimony yesterday (May 27).

"I didn't want to think it was them," said Perryman, according to the Chicago Tribune. "I mean, I think so highly of Mr. Kelly and his family. They've been very, very good to me."

Perryman was descriptive, noting the facial features of the alleged victim. "She has distinct cheekbones, the way she moves her mouth and talks and smiles," she said. "It's very distinctive to her."

After being contacted in December by Cook County prosecutor Shauna Boliker, Perryman was shown the infamous sex tape a month later - and did not identify the alleged victim or Kelly.

"I was in shock and I wanted to be 110 percent sure," she said of her first viewing of the tape.

However, after seeing the tape again, she was "110 percent sure."

"The image I saw looked exactly like Mr. Kelly."

Perryman explained her relationship with R. Kelly, which was entirely professional. She believes she first observed the alleged victim in August 1999, entering Tracks Studio in Chicago carrying "a pillow and an overnight bag."

As a personal assistant for Kelly, Perryman would drive the alleged victim from school to the studio, where she did her homework. Perryman also drove the alleged victim to her mother's office.

According to Perryman, the alleged victim was introduced to her as R. Kelly's goddaughter, which is why, she testified, she never felt anything irregular was going on between them.
