From AllHipHop
R. Kelly collapsed in his North Carolina prison cell after being given what his lawyer says was a dangerous overdose of medication while in solitary confinement.
The incident allegedly took place just days after Kelly’s legal team accused prison officials of plotting to harm him.
According to court filings viewed by AllHipHop, the 58-year-old singer was placed in isolation on Tuesday (June 10) and given additional medication by staff on Thursday (June 12).
The next morning, he reportedly fainted, experienced dizziness and vision loss and was rushed to Duke University Hospital.
Doctors determined he had received a life-threatening dose of medication and kept him under observation for two days. His attorney now alleges the overdose was not accidental.
“That means that, within two days of the filing of his motion, Bureau of Prisons officials administered an amount of medication that significantly exceeded a safe dose and caused Mr. Kelly to overdose, putting his life in jeopardy,” R. Kelly’s lawyer Beau B. Brindley said. “They gave him an amount of medicine that could have killed him.”
The emergency motion, filed in Illinois on Monday (June 16), is the third request for a temporary release to home confinement. Kelly’s legal team argues that his life is in danger behind bars, citing not only the overdose but also a recent declaration from another inmate, Mikeal Glenn Stine, who claimed prison staff and white supremacist groups were conspiring to kill the singer to cover up misconduct during his prosecution.

He's not getting an Oscar for his dramas. They will move him to another prison. He really thinks this will get him out. LOLO
He is very crafty but this ain’t gone work and he gone cost someone their job behind his foolishness! Here’s what happened he has been keeping what ever pull it was instead of taking it he let then pile up then he took them all at once to orchestrate this event. I know I work at a jail as a nurse we had one prisoner that when they did a shake down of his cell they found over 30 pills they were all his they will pretend to take their medication spit it out when you leave and save it it some will give them to other prisoners and lie like it’s oxy or some other drug that we don’t even give out in there! Common sense tells anyone that if you are used to getting 5 pills a day and someone hands you 10 you know dang well you been ain’t taking 10 this is how I know he a dam lie and doing all he can to get out just like the Tory lames! Also they keep a count on all pills inmates have their out prescription
10:36 Preach! Let his nasty azz die. nasty SOB
That mf saved them pills for this sympathy moment...FOH Robert
"Jail is uncomfortable, so I should be let out." FOH

@ 11:11
My thoughts exactly. He took just enough to get out of jail for a bit but not enough to go bye bye permanently
@1:11 thought the same thing.
Why don’t he just calm down any ask Trump for a pardon. He likes getting criminals off, since he’s one too.
JUST BECAUSE HE ALLEGEDLY DID WHAT HE WAS ACCUSED OF-I DON'T KNOW CUZ I WASN'T THERE- DON'T MEAN THE GUARDS/OTHER PRISONERS, ETC. CAN ATTEMPT TO HARM OR UNALIVE HIM.
HE WON'T BE FREED THOUGH; THEY'LL PROBABLY SEND HIM TO A DIFFERENT PRISON TO FINISH SERVING HIS TIME.
