A police officer stands guard in front of R. Kelly's recording studio in the West Loop as city inspectors go through the property on January 16th, 2019, in Chicago, Illinois. A judge granted the city permission to inspect the property last week because the city suspected people may be living in the studio, which was not zoned for residential use. Kelly has faced increased scrutiny lately after allegations of sexual abuse against young girls were raised on the Lifetime docuseries Surviving R. Kelly.
