- π₯ R. Kelly was hospitalized on Friday after reportedly being administered double the prescribed dosage of his anxiety and sleeping medication while in solitary confinement.
- π¨ He experienced symptoms of an overdose, including feeling faint and seeing black spots, before collapsing and losing consciousness.
- π₯ Prison officials initially intended to treat him at an on-site medical center, but he was transferred to Duke University Hospital due to the facility's inability to provide the necessary care.
Blood Clots and Forced Removal from Hospital
- π©Έ While at Duke University Hospital, R. Kelly reported concerns about blood clots in his legs.
- π©Ί A scan confirmed blood clots in both his legs and lungs, and a procedure was recommended, with a seven-day hospital stay planned.
- βοΈ Within an hour, officers reportedly removed Mr. Kelly from the hospital at gunpoint, without the recommended procedure or surgical intervention, and returned him to solitary confinement.
Lawyer's Claims and Evidence
- βοΈ R. Kelly's attorney, Beau Brindley, asserts that this incident, along with previous claims of a murder plot, supports his argument that prison officials are attempting to harm his client.
- π° Sources at Duke University Hospital have confirmed Mr. Kelly's presence, his forced removal, treatment for an overdose, and the need for blood clot treatment.
- π The legal team is working to obtain medical records, which require R. Kelly's signed waivers, to corroborate these events.
Alleged Motivation and Legal Strategy
- π΅οΈββοΈ Attorney Brindley believes the Bureau of Prisons officials are trying to prevent the exposure of criminal conduct by US attorneys and BOP officers related to R. Kelly's federal cases.
- π The defense intends to file a motion this week to vacate R. Kelly's conviction, citing newly discovered evidence that they believe will lead to this outcome.
- β οΈ The lawyer emphasizes that the current situation is a direct threat to R. Kelly's life and that they are fighting to get him back into the hospital for necessary treatment.
