Kodak Black previously spoke out from prison about the poor treatment he has been receiving at the Kentucky facility, claiming he was tortured and humiliated. Now, he has decided to take legal action to put a stop to the madness.

According to TMZ, the Florida rapper is suing the Federal Bureau of prisons along with its director and the warden of the Big Sandy maximum-security prison, saying he had his rights violated ever since he was transferred there in October 2019.
Kodak claims Big Sandy guards put a “gang beating” on him shortly after he arrived, allegedly as retaliation for the injured Miami prison guard, TMZ reports. He claims the guards even embarrassed him after they “flicked” his testicles during the big beatdown. The rapper says he has been routinely punished and mistreated for absolutely no reason, revealing he has been being placed by guards in a backless paper gown on a 4-point restraint for more than 6 hours … with no access to a bathroom. In documents obtained by the news site, this has forced Kodak to urinate and defecate on himself while the guards make jokes. He also claims medical records even show that this treatment resulted in his mouth bleeding, lacerations, and vomiting.
As TMZ notes, the rapper is now suing to be moved to a lower-security prison. On top of that, he wants damages and his legal fees covered.
