Kodak Black says he was viciously attacked by seven prison guards on Friday, May 1, at the United States Penitentiary, Big Sandy in Kentucky.
A post on the 22-year old rapper's Instagram page today detailed this weekend's alleged incident.
"Friday night he was badly beaten while in cuffs, by 7 guards at Big Sandy KY.," the post reads. "They struck him in the head repeatedly with a metal object, Then after one of the guards flicked his genitals and said "you're not so gangster now, you're gonna need bigger balls to survive". We have notified his counsel @lawronin and he advised he will be asking for a full investigation by @thejusticedept and the FBI."
Black's lawyer, Bradford Cohen, says he has requested an investigation by the Department of Justice.
"I have requested that Big Sandy preserve all video and conduct a full investigation. I have also reached out to DOJ, as I feel that a 3rd party investigation needs to take place immediately," Cohen wrote on an Instagram post. "There are recordings of the witnesses that called and stated what happened to Bill. A 22 year old man serving approx 2 years more for a non violent crim is in a max pen. 1100 miles from his family and lawyers. This is true injustice. Not to mention when he was under the influence of an unknown substance during the incident in Miami 2 weeks before his sentencing on the paperwork case."
Black, real name Bill Kapri, has been held at Big Sandy since January, 23, when he was moved from the Federal Detention Center in Miami.
He is serving 46 months on weapons charges and is scheduled to be released on Aug. 14, 2022.
