R&B singer R. Kelly has requested house arrest, citing fears for his safety amid allegations of a murder plot orchestrated by several fellow inmates.

The “I Believe I Can Fly” hitmaker, who is serving a 31-year sentence for child sexual abuse crimes, is seeking a release from federal custody after alleging that his life is in danger.

On Tuesday, the musician’s legal team submitted an emergency motion for temporary furlough in federal court, claiming that three Bureau of Prisons (BOP) officials conspired to arrange for Kelly to be killed by a fellow inmate.

The filing, obtained by People, contained a declaration from inmate Mikeal Glenn Stine, who claimed that three high-ranking inmates ordered him to execute a murder plot during his sentence at the United States Penitentiary Tucson in Arizona.

Stine said his role as a member of the neo-Nazi prison gang Aryan Brotherhood gave him the “power to order beatings, stabbings, and executions that were carried out by other members of the A.B.,” the outlet adds.

He alleged a BOP official had previously “directed [Stine] to order assaults, beatings, and killings of inmates.”

Stine claimed he had been approached about killing the three-time Grammy winner, 58, before ultimately being placed in the same prison unit as him.

After being placed within earshot of the musician, Stine claimed that an official told him, “You need to do what you came here for.”

The inmate alleged that he would be given the go-ahead to escape from custody if he had carried out the murder plot — and live out his final days as a “free man.”

He said the offer appealed to him at the time, given his terminal cancer diagnosis.

Stine said he ultimately decided not to go ahead with the plan, and instead told Kelly — born Robert Sylvester Kelly — about the supposed murder plot.

“R. Kelly finds himself the victim of the very same illegal and corrupt prosecutorial overreach that was used to pursue President Trump and others,” the singer’s attorney, Beau Brindley, told The Post.

“His situation is emblematic of the weaponization of the DOJ to go after public features.  The difference is the weapon in his case is actually a white supremacist with instructions to kill him.”

“We are fighting to keep Mr. Kelly alive and expose the corruption,” Brindley went on. “We call upon President Trump to help us in this endeavor as he is the only person who has shown the courage and willingness to stand up to these people and actually stop the corruption in its tracks.”

To further prove his side of the story, Stine said he would be willing to undergo a lie detector test and reveal the names of inmates whose beatings he’s been involved with during his time behind bars.

“We are seeking the immediate release of R. Kelly, based on the solicitation of his murder by high-ranking BOP officers and officials,” the singer’s attorney, Beau Brindley, told reporters during a press conference Tuesday.

“These are people who seek to kill Mr. Kelly, rather than allow the corrupt criminal conduct of those who manufactured his convictions be exposed.”

“We recognize the stunning quality of these allegations, but in the end, these are not allegations made by R. Kelly, these are not allegations made by my office, these are allegations made by men who were solicited by government prosecutors and BOP officials,” he added.

Brindley added that his team will be reaching out to President Trump for help.

In 2008, R. Kelly was acquitted in a child pornography case; however, the singer was arrested by federal authorities in 2019.

Prosecutors alleged that the singer and his entourage “traveled throughout the United States and abroad to perform at concert venues … and to recruit women and girls to engage in illegal sexual activity with Kelly.” 

In 2021, the “Ignition” musician was convicted of racketeering and sex-trafficking charges by a federal jury. He was sentenced to 30 years in prison. 

The following year, Kelly was also convicted on six of the 13 counts he faced, including three child porn charges, during a separate Chicago trial. A judge later sentenced him to 20 years, with 19 to run concurrently with his previous 30-year sentence.
