Lawsuit Brewing: R. Kelly Sues Brooklyn Prison For Being “Violated”…Details

R. Kelly is in MDC Brooklyn Pr!s’on apparently goin’ off, after he says he was v!o’lated by the pr!s’on’s head hon’chos and/or rules. Just days after the “Step In The Name Of Love” crooner was sentenced to 30 years in pr!s’on for $e’x cr!’me char’ges, among other char’ges…he is now pretty much telling the pr!s’on they better get tuh steppin’ in the name of cutting him a check for the way he’s being treated. Okay, not exactly in those words, but check out the details of his lawsuit below…

Kelly just filed a lawsuit against MDC Brooklyn because he says he’s being severely mistreated by being placed on su!c’ide watch, even though he is adamant he’s not su!c!d’al. According to the court docs, Kelly says he is being subjected to “cr’u’el and unusual pun’ish’ment” as a result of the su!c!’de watch the pr!s’on has him under, due to the fact that he’s a celebrity.

But there’s more… Kelly claims he was put on su!c!de watch this week after he was sentenced to 30 years in pr!s’on, arguing his 8th Amendment rights are being v!ola’ted because “he is not su!c!’dal and expressly told MDC officials that he was not su!c!d’al and had no thoughts of ha’rm’ing himself or others.”

In the docs, he mentions Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell — who was also placed on su!c!de watch — saying the same thing has happened to him.

R. Kelly is also describing the ha’rsh hygienic conditions he’s reportedly suffering under while on su!c!de watch. He says he’s in a single-cell that has no bed rails, nor showers, no shaving utensils, nor toilet paper. He also claims he’s being ‘forced to eat meals with his hands, and being shut off from loved ones.’

Additionally, Kelly couldn’t help but notice that inmates on su!c!de watch actually do not receive psychiatric treatment inside the MDC Brooklyn facility, according to his observation.

Thus, Kelly is now suing for emotional dis’tress and da’ma’ges.

Here’s what the The Bureau of Pr!so’ns had to say about Kelly’s claims:

“The BOP is committed to ensuring the safety and security of all inmates in our population, our staff, and the public. Humane treatment of the men and women in our custody is a top priority.”

Not sure if the MDC Brooklyn Pr!s’on is going to win or lose this new legal battle vs. R. Kelly. But the facility has recently been thrusted into the national spotlight by media outlets that reported many other inmates’ complaints of inhumane conditions. So it should be pretty interesting to see how R. Kelly’s lawsuit plays out.
