Derrel McDavid already has spent two days on the witness stand, fielding questions from his lawyer about the more than two decades he spent as one of the singer’s most trusted associates, and, prosecutors say, played a key role in funneling money to women who said they had been sexually abused by the singer, and rounding up alleged sex tapes as the singer faced a 2008 trial in state court.

McDavid said that even as Kelly faced a wave of lawsuits and extortion attempts ahead of that trial, he believed in both the singer and the insight of Kelly’s top-notch team of lawyers and private investigators. Kelly was charged with filming a sex tape with a 14-year-old girl, but Kelly’s legal team assured McDavid the tape was fake, he testified Thursday.

McDavid said he believed them — and didn’t have reason to doubt the alleged victim when she and her parents also denied the allegations to child welfare investigators, police, prosecutors and a grand jury. Kelly was ultimately found not guilty.
