Latin King Gang Member Claims He Beat Up R Kelly In Prison For Attention

Latin King Gang Member Says He Beat Up R Kelly In Prison To Get Spotlight Attention

It was reported last week that a frustrated inmate went on the attack and jumped Kelly in his cell. Just in time, a Latin King street gang member who was convicted of a racketeering conspiracy involving two 1999 northwest Indiana murders has claimed to be the man who attacked Kelly.

At the time, sources claim R Kelly was examined by a doctor, who assured that the singer was okay, no broken bones or serious injuries.

The violent inmate reportedly has “F–k the Feds” tattooed to his face and has once again tried to stab the disgraced R&B artist with a pen, court records showed Monday. He crept in and started “stomping on Kelly’s head, repeatedly. It’s unclear why he chose a pen…but it definitely wasn’t the key to an “ignition.”

The prison employee was then forced to use pepper spray to end the assault before Farmer was placed in the MCC’s solitary housing unit following the attack.

Jeremiah Shane Farmer, wrote that “the government made me attack” R. Kelly. He says that he carried out the attack “in hopes of getting spotlight attention and world news notice to shed light on” alleged government corruption, per The Sun-Times.

Farmer says a mental health professional at the MCC told him, “You don’t want to assault Kelly, if you did, you would have done it.” Farmer wrote that he “said some disrespect back” and was told “go do it then.”
