R. Kelly and his legal team are doing everything they can to get him out but it looks like not even the crisis can help him.
According to a report, an inmate at the prison R. Kelly is at, on the same floor, has tested positive for COVID-19.
The disgraced singer’s legal team requested for their client to be released early but was denied because the judge didn’t think he was a high risk to catch coronavirus. His team filed for a new motion, saying the conditions were getting worse and he’s at a higher risk of contracting the virus.
Bossip reports that the singer has more than $220 k he made this year, so he could be considered a flight risk. However, he owes $1.88 million to the IRS and he denies that he’s a flight risk.
A judge hasn’t ruled on the second motion as of yet, what do you think the judgment will be?
