Robert Sylvester Kelly, also known as R. Kelly, is 55 years old and on self-destruct. He was recently sentenced to 30 years in prison for government racketeering and sex trafficking charges. Jennifer Bonjean, Kelly’s legal counsel, told PEOPLE in an explanation delivered on July 1 that Kelly being on self-destruction watch was “just a reformist mindset” as he is a “high-profile inmate” and disregards his Eighth Amendment privileges.
Bonjean finds it terrifying to put Kelly on self-destruct. Bonjean told CNN that putting someone on self-destruct if they’re not self-destructive really hurts them more. Still, the shamed R&B singer is suing the incarceration community where he’s being held, MDC Brooklyn, saying he’s not self-destructive and that this is “cruel and unusual discipline,” as detailed by PEOPLE in court files. “MDC has a strategy of putting high-profile individuals on self-destruct, whether or not they’re self-destructive,” Bonjean said. “This was done with Ghislaine Maxwell lately.”
Bonjean also needs a short-term restraining order to get Kelly out of restraint, as self-destruct guard is so brutal it “can and immediately cause serious mental harm” to a non-self-destructive inmate, Bonjean said in court records. “Detainees are stripped of their clothes and clothes and placed in coveralls made of a material that movers use to pack furniture,” the grumbled said. It also states that inmates are “usually placed in a solitary cell with no side rails and given no comfort”.
“They can’t shower or shave, and sometimes they don’t get toilet paper. Parties do not belong to utensils, so prisoners have to eat with their hands. They can’t talk to their family or others who can help them,” the grumbled said. “Of course they are watched non-stop by prison staff, but individuals who are on ‘self-destruct surveillance’ are not given any mental attention.
A person from the Bureau of Prisons informed PEOPLE that they couldn’t say a word about Kelly’s jail time. The claim read: “For health and safety reasons, the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) does not provide data on an inmate’s state of restraint or internal security rehearsals.”

“The BOP is focused on ensuring that our detainees as a whole, our staff and the general population are free from even the slightest hint of harm. Treating the people in our consideration in a sympathetic way is a primary concern. The BOP is not commenting on an upcoming lawsuit or matters pending in court.”
Bonjean said she asked Kelly to email her after he was returned to government office on Wednesday after being convicted, but she never heard from him. She didn’t hear from the detention community about his status until the researchers asked for data, Bonjean said.
CNN said that after a six-week preliminary round involving 45 observers in which Kelly was charged with nine offenses, including one count of racketeering and eight counts of violating the Mann Act, a sex trafficking ordinance, a jury found him liable last September.
Kelly was sentenced to 30 years in prison on June 29 after a lengthy period of sexual assault. During the five-week government rundown in Brooklyn, individuals who say Kelly physically or actually hurt them confirmed. Individuals who knew the shamed R&B artist when he married the late singer Aaliyah in 1994 when she was 15 and he was an adult in light of her presuming she was pregnant were also facing charges. Kelly’s legal counsel has requested that he be sentenced to 10 years or less in prison.
