R. Kelly, currently serving a 30-year sentence, has filed for an emergency release, claiming allegations of a murder plot against him by prison officials. His legal team cites a declaration from a terminally ill leader of the Aryan Brotherhood, alleging officials offered early release in exchange for Kelly's murder. Although moved to solitary confinement for safety, prosecutors characterize these claims as 'fanciful' and 'deeply unserious.' A hearing regarding his plea is scheduled for June 20, reflecting a highly contested legal scenario around the singer's prison conditions.
