R. Kelly's Attorneys Ask Trump To Set Him Free From Prison, Accuse Feds Of Plotting To Kill Him

  • On June 10, 2025, R. Kelly's attorney Beau Brindley held a press conference alleging a murder plot against Kelly in a North Carolina federal prison.
  • The allegations stem from claims that Bureau of Prisons officials solicited Aryan Brotherhood inmates to kill Kelly to suppress evidence of constitutional violations.
  • Brindley detailed that one inmate, Mikeal Glenn Stine, a terminally ill gang leader, backed out and reported a promise of freedom in exchange for murder; officials warned Kelly to avoid poison at the mess hall.
  • Kelly's legal team filed a 20-page emergency motion seeking his immediate release to home detention, citing violations of his constitutional rights and imminent danger, asking for presidential intervention because "R. Kelly does not have the time" to follow normal channels.
  • The case highlights ongoing claims of corrupt federal prosecution and grave risks to Kelly's safety, with his attorneys planning to request a pardon following recent high-profile presidential clemencies.
