Kelly, who is being held at the federal detention facility in Chicago, was scheduled to appear in court for the Wednesday hearing but did not, according to video footage shared to Facebook by Fox 32 Chicago. Tandra Simonton, spokeswoman for Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx, also confirmed to USA TODAY.
Kelly's lead lawyer Steve Greenberg told the judge, “I don’t know if (Kelly) was supposed to be here today, but he had a medical procedure."
