R. Kelly No Longer in Solitary Confinement Following Internal Review

Summary: R. Kelly, the disgraced R&B singer, has been let out of solitary confinement. He was put in isolation for two weeks at his North Carolina prison after guards found a retired warden's phone number in his notebook. His lawyer claimed the former warden was just a "mentor," and an internal prison review cleared Kelly of breaking any rules.

Kelly is currently serving a 30-year sentence for sex crimes and racketeering, and his time behind bars has been full of drama—including a major medical scare. In January, he was taken to the hospital for dangerous blood clots. However, he completely refused to have a medical procedure to fix them. Why? Kelly and his lawyers accused a prison worker of trying to kill him by giving him a deadly dose of medicine! Meanwhile, as Kelly deals with his prison paranoia and untreated health issues, one of his victims from the 2000s just released a memoir about her experience.
