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."

That must have been scary as h*ll. Maybe a mini-stroke? She needs to take it a bit easier. Get well!

Sounds like Judge Judy suffered TIA's - transient ischemic attacks. These are warning signs of an
stroke. Fortunately they got her to a hospital quickly.

It is NOT a coincidence that this is the third time this has happened to a celebrity in the past month. It's space aliens for sure. First they inflicted blunt trauma deaths on cows and schools of fish.
