Jailed Singer, R.Kelly, Reportedly Hospitalized After Medication Overdose, Attorneys Blame Prison Staff (DETAILS)

Jailed U.S singer, R. Kelly’s attorneys are calling for his immediate release after an incident they say could’ve ended in tragedy.

According to an exclusive from @allhiphopcom, the singer was rushed to Duke University Hospital after allegedly being administered a dangerously high dose of medication while in solitary confinement at the North Carolina prison. His legal team claims it was so severe, he fainted on June 13 and had to be hospitalized for two days.

The 58-year-old who’s been held in isolation, was reportedly given more medication than usual by prison staff… a dosage that doctors later determined could have killed him. After observation at the hospital, Kelly was sent back to prison. But his lawyers aren’t letting it slide.
