The inmate who attacked R. Kelly last week reportedly tried to stab him with a pen during the altercation.
More details about the attack have emerged as his attorney Steven Greenberg is using the attack to try and spring him from jail.
Greenberg writes in court docs that the attacker was “stomping on [Kelly’s] head, repeatedly,” and even alleged the inmate also had “an ink pen with him that he was going to use to stab Mr. Kelly” but fortunately, it was snatched away from him before he could do the deed.
“This is an inmate that never should have been anywhere near Mr. Kelly, an individual who is charged with the most violent of crimes, and one who plainly has no respect for the rules, he has the phrase ‘Fu** The Feds’ tattooed on his face,” Greenberg’s motion continued.
Kelly’s team is working tirelessly to have him released on bail until his trial begins. The court has denied all attempts.
