UPDATE: Commenter Claims To Work On Show, Gives Report: Judge Judy Has Apparent Stroke

Radar Online:

An incoherent Judge Judy told shocked audience members she “needed to stop” one of her made-for-TV cases because she was “not feeling well,” RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

Judge Sheindlin was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital Wednesday morning after she suddenly started saying things that didn’t make sense, a studio insider revealed.

“She was just sitting on the stand during her show taping and she started saying things that didn’t make any sense,” a source close to the situation told RadarOnline.com, exclusively.

“She said, ‘I need to stop, I’m not feeling well.’”

The source told RadarOnline.com that the 68-year-old judge was only two cases deep into her taping when her bizarre behavior prompted her to stop and have a crew member call 911.

“She said couple of sentences that didn’t have anything to do with the case and then she stopped speaking and said she wasn’t feeling well,” the source said.

“The stage manager called the paramedics and they came and took her away.”

The Los Angeles City Fire Department confirmed to RadarOnline.com that a paramedic ambulance was dispatched to the KTLA Studios in Hollywood, where Judge Judy tapes her show, at 9:12 a.m. today.

Sheindlin’s rep, Gary Rosen, confirmed to RadarOnline.com that the judge is in the hospital and will be staying overnight for observation.

“The judge was feeling nauseous and had some intestinal discomfort and decided to go to the hospital to get it checked out,” Rosen said.

“They are keeping her overnight for tests.”

    I was there and that is inaccurate reporting. The fact is she was completely coherent for the duration of the first case of the day. We only taped one case. She did state at the beginning of the case that she was “feeling a little off today.” To say she was incoherent is inaccurate reporting. She gave an exceptionally wise and compassionate ruling for the one case brought before her court today.

    I hope she will recover quickly.. she’s tough as nails but I have loved her no nonsense rulings since I first saw her on 20/20 tell a punk to get a hair cut so he could find a better group of friends. :beer:
