Tameka Raymond Asks For Emergency Hearing To Have Usher’s Custody Stripped, Says Their Children Are In Danger

Reports surfaced yesterday that Usher’s five-year old son was rushed to the intensive care unit of an Atlanta hospital after a horrific swimming pool accident. Usher Raymond V nearly drowned after getting his arm wedged into drain of the family swimming pool 6 pm, Monday evening. The child was playing in the pool with his aunt and saw a toy in the drain. He dove down to get the toy and his arm got stuck in the drain. Now Tameka has filed a paper work on Tuesday at the Fulton County Courthouse requesting custody of their two boys – Usher Raymond V and Naviyd Ely.

via TMZ:
Usher’s ex-wife has just filed legal docs asking for an emergency hearing later this week to wrestle child custody away from him, on grounds he’s creating a dangerous environment.

Tameka Raymond filed the docs in Fulton County, Georgia, claiming Usher is abdicating his parental responsibilities by letting other people care for their 2 kids people who she claims are not on the ball.

We know Tameka has specific beef with the Usher’s aunt who was watching 5-year-old Usher Raymond V when his arm got stuck in the pool drain on Monday. Tameka has complained about the aunt in the past alleging she once let a stalker in the house where Usher and the kids were staying. Tameka also says the aunt is too physical in disciplining the kids.

Currently Usher has primary custody of both kids and Tameka has limited custodial rights. She now seeks to reverse that.

This is any parent’s nightmare but even more devastating to this family as they have previously lost a child in a water related accident. I don’t even the judge ruling on this matter. Both sides have valid points to argue. We wish Usher Raymond V a speedy recovery. Will this unfortunate accident work in Tameka’s favor? Should Usher lose primary custody? More details to come…
