R. Kelly Sues Prison Bureau For Leaking Info To YouTube Host

R. Kelly alleges in a new lawsuit that the federal Bureau Of Prisons leaked his private information to Tasha K — the same YouTube personality that Cardi B sued for defamation last year. The complaint, filed Monday in Chicago federal court, claims an unnamed Bureau Of Prisons employee illegally accessed Kelly’s digital prison records — including recordings of private phone calls with his girlfriend and lawyers — and sold them to Tasha, who then broadcast them to her more than 1 million followers. Kelly was left “isolated and fearful to communicate with his attorneys or other third parties,” the lawsuit claims, because he knew anything he said could be “released to the general public for mass exploitation.” The BOP declined to comment.
