Gunna Denied Bond, Has RICO Trial Date Set for 2023

Gunna has pleaded not responsible to conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, his lawyer Steven H. Sadow tells Pitchfork. The rapper, whose actual title is Sergio Giavanni Kitchens, has additionally been denied bond. His trial is scheduled to start on Monday, January 9, 2023. Sadow wrote in an e-mail to Pitchfork:

The Courtroom was clearly involved about threats and intimidation of witnesses. We consider when the Courtroom hears proof, not simply the phrases of the prosecutor, it can discover that Sergio’s launch on bond won’t, instantly or not directly, pose a big threat to witnesses. We sit up for having an evidentiary listening to on this as quickly because the Courtroom permits.

Gunna was named in a grand jury indictment that alleged that YSL (aka Younger Thug’s Younger Stoner Life Data) is a legal road gang.  Younger Thug was additionally charged with conspiracy to violate the RICO Act, and can have a listening to on his bond request on June 2, in line with Fox 5 Atlanta.
