Even though prison officials say it ain’t personal with .R. Kelly he now feels like a man who is truly trapped with the outbreak of the coronavirus, lock downs are in full swing! He can’t even get to his lawyers.
His legal team tried going to see him last Thursday at MCC Chicago but were blocked from entering by corrections personnel due to the COVID-19 outbreak.R. Kelly’s lawyers not only wanted to check on his well-being but also to talk legal strategy which is something they get together to discuss frequently.The last time R. Kelly had a face-to-face with his attorneys was sometime last week. It was right around then that everything started getting canceled.A rep for the Bureau of Prisons in Illinois says jail staff is suspending visits for the next 30 days — but it sounds like they’ll allow certain legal meet-ups on a case-by-case basis.The rep says they’re making their determinations with an eye toward avoiding unnecessarily exposing inmates and others. They say they recognize the importance of allowing the inmates access to lawyers and will try to accommodate that to the greatest extent possible.But when it comes to R. Kelly, his team is trying to work out a schedule to see the singer more often than what’s being outlined here. Nothing’s set in stone yet though.However, R. Kelly can still call his lawyers from inside the jail but, that’s not nearly as effective as an in-person sit-down.
