Gunna might be pushing pleas at this rate because the rapper could be behind bars for quite some time.
Gunna, born Sergio Kitchens, has already pleaded not guilty to conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, the rapper’s lawyer Steven H. Sadow confirmed to Pitchfork. The news comes on the heels of “Pushin P” crafter being denied bond and might have to stay behind bars until Monday, January 9, 2023, when his trial is scheduled to begin.
In a statement sent to Pitchfork, Sadow wrote:
Gunna was rounded up as part of the massive sting that also saw Young Thug and other members of YSL hit with RICO charges. Billboard reports that prosecutors allege that Gunna serves in a “command” role and would “direct their troops” to commit violent acts.
Culture reporter Jewel Wicker also stated in her reporting the judge is worried about “witness tampering.”
Gunna’s mentor, Young Thug, is also going through it. Per his attorney, Thugger is currently being held in “dungeonlike” conditions.
While the news is not sounding good for Gunna and Young Thug right now, they should know they are getting plenty of support from producer Metro Boomin on social media.
