"My client has been experiencing pain since last spring and has been seen both by the jail physician, urologist and urologist at [an] Illinois Urological Center," said Jed Stone, Gilbert's attorney.

Judge Bakalis has signed an order allowing Gilbert to receive any medications he needs while continuing to be held in DuPage County Jail.
