Bell, 34, of West Hollywood, California, agreed to a plea deal via Zoom to the charges, The New York Times reported.
“If you plead guilty, that is an admission that you did commit these crimes,” Judge Timothy McCormick told Bell, according to WJW.

That was the day Bell was scheduled to perform at The Odeon in Cleveland, Variety reported.
