will remain in jail ahead of his January trial on gang-related charges after a judge denied his release due to fears it might lead to witness intimidation.BillboardGunna, whose real name is Sergio Kitchens, has already been denied pre-trial release twice due to Fulton County prosecutors’ fears that it might lead to witness intimidation. Gunna’s attorneys argue that there is not a “shred of evidence” to justify keeping him behind bars before he has been proven guilty.
Gunna’s lawyer Steven Sadow fought back against prosecutors and the supposed offer to “whack someone” on Gunna’s behalf, arguing that unverified “proffers” have repeatedly been disproven, and the court should be “skeptical” about believing them. Gunna and fellow Atlanta rapper Young Thug were charged in May and named as part of a sprawling indictment alleging criminal activities relating to their association with the group YSL, which prosecutors claim is not only a record label called “Young Stoner Life” but also a “violent street gang” known as “Young Slime Life.” The indictment includes 28 total defendants affiliated with YSL, and charges them with 56 counts related to gang activity and racketeering.
