Contributing sentiments towards policy:

47% : In the early 2000s, Chicago police attempted to locate Minor 1 for questioning but Kelly's team had her flown to the Bahamas and Mexico for weeks to get away from law enforcement, according to prosecutors.
42% : But potentially far more damaging to Kelly is that the girl depicted on the tapes, who refused to testify in 2008, is now cooperating with law enforcement, as is her mother.
42% : The obstruction charges allege that, when he got wind that authorities were investigating, he bought back incriminating tapes and paid off witnesses so they wouldn't cooperate with law enforcement.
