Gunna gets support from Kim Kardashian
Kim Kardashian recently took to Twitter to show her support for Gunna who was taken into custody on gang-related charges a couple of months back.
The aspiring lawyer wrote, “#FreeGunna” on her Twitter feed as well as shared it on her official Instagram story.
The social media star also posted emoji saying ‘Free’ as well as the letter ‘P’, most possibly referring to Gunna’s track titled ‘pushin P.’
Regardless, the business mogul’s support for Gunna caused an uproar on the internet with people divided over whether or not Kardashian should provide legal services to the rapper.
If you didn’t know, the 41-year-old actress is studying to become a lawyer and is supposedly an apprentice to a firm.
She revealed her plans to be a lawyer in 2019 and follow in her late father, Robert Kardashian’s footsteps.
The SKIMS founder further passed her baby bar exam in December 2021 after several failures.
She said at that time, ‘For anyone who doesn’t know my law school journey, know this wasn’t easy or handed to me.’
All about Gunna’s arrest
Gunna alongside fellow rapper Young Thug was detained by the cops earlier this year in May over gang-related charges and possession of drugs.
Furthermore, 28 other defendants affiliated with record label YSL were booked alongside Gunna and Young Thug.
According to the legal documents, the group’s charges list murder, drug and gun possession, witness intimidation, carjacking, robbery, and theft.
Gunna is currently being held at a jail in Georgia for violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO).
The pushing P broke h is silence over the situation by writing a letter claiming his innocence. Gunna, whose real name is Sergio Kitchens, also proclaimed that he is being ‘falsely accused.’
The 29-year-old musician wrote, ‘The picture that is being painted of me is ugly and untrue. My fans know I love to celebrate life. I love my family, I love to travel, I love music, I love my fans.’
In addition, he continued, ‘I have all faith that God will grant me justice for the purity in my heart and the innocence of my actions.’
Moreover, the artist’s lawyers Donald F. Samuel, John A. Garland, and Kristen W. Novay shared a statement to address Gunna’s arrest.
They said, ‘Mr. Sergio Kitchens, known as Gunna, is innocent. The indictment falsely portrays his music as part of criminal conspiracy.’
