Prosecutors in Bartow, Fla., dropped all child pornography charges against R. Kelly after a judge ruled that photos allegedly showing the singer having sex with an underage girl were illegally seized.

The decision, announced Wednesday, doesn't mean that hitmaker is out of trouble. The R&B singer still faces 14 counts of child pornography in his home state of Illinois stemming from a videotape allegedly showing him having sex with an underage girl.

But last week, Circuit Judge Dennis Maloney agreed with Kelly's attorneys that the Polk County sheriff's detectives did not have enough evidence to justify a search of Kelly's home.
