R. Kelly's first attempt to get out of jai l due to coronavirus fears didn't work, but he's going back to the well, claiming his medical crisis is even worse now, and insisting he won't skip town. The disgraced singer filed a renewed emergency motion asking to get released from lockup based on changed circumstances. The judge denied his first release request earlier this month, saying the singer failed to explain how he wasn't still a flight risk. Kelly claims if he tried to run he would be "the most obvious and recognizable person on the streets of Chicago, or anywhere else in the country, in light of the severe stay-at-home restrictions." According to the docs ... he'd also agree to 24/7 surveillance and GPS monitoring to make sure he doesn't go anywhere other than home or meet with anyone other than his lawyers. The judge is yet to make a decision.
