Katt Williams Sent 2 Mental Hospital

According to my people over at BET.com it seems that Katt Williams was sent to a mental hospital this weekend. Apparently, Katt was visiting family members in South Carolina and ended up in the Tuomey Regional Medical Center. It started on a Friday when employees at a motel called police because Katt Williams was roaming around with his bathrobe on and a towel wrapped around his head. When police arrived they figured no laws were broken so they left. Here's the rest of the story according to BET.com:

Williams next stop was at the office of attorney Garryl Deas where he spoke to the attorney because he felt the police were “attempting to violate his rights.” Williams even spoke to Deas about the rumors that he had died in a plane crash earlier this month.

After Deas left and returned an hour later, Williams was waiting for the attorney and his demeanor had changed and Deas felt Williams seemed “disoriented.”

At this time, Williams family arrived and tried to take the comedian to the hospital for a mental evaluation.

“He just said that he doesn’t trust anyone anymore,” Deas said. He said he thought “everyone has turned against him. He wasn’t really coherent.”

By that point, the actor was “speaking gibberish,” Deas said, though he declined to guess whether the actor was intoxicated.

An order was issued by a probate judge in order to have Williams transported to the mental hospital and Katt was not physically aggressive when officers arrived.

A legal commitment spans 72 hours and after that time a patient must go before a judge to determine whether to be hospitalized or not.

Williams has a show scheduled at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas on Nov. 20 and a gig with Steve Harvey on Dec. 31 in Detroit — his last stand-up show according to Katt.

His last stand up show!!! I hope that part of the story isn't true!
