Trevian Kutti, a former publicist for Ye, the musician formerly known at Kanye West, was among the last of Donald Trump's co-defendants to surrender Friday at the Fulton County Jail on racketeering charges for allegedly trying to steal the 2020 election.
Kutti reached an agreement for a $75,000 bond, of which she had to post 10% to remain free pending trial. Charges include alleged violation of Georgia's Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, conspiracy to commit solicitation of false statements and writings and influencing witnesses.
Kutti is best known as a publicist for Ye and disgraced singer R. Kelly, who is serving 30 years for racketeering and sex trafficking convictions in New York.
Darryl Cohen is representing Kutti in the case, according to court records. He did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Kutti also did not immediately responded to a request for comment.
Her charges come as Trump surrendered himself to authorities Thursday.
What is Trevian Kutti accused of?
An indictment accuses Kutti of contacting Fulton County Election Worker Rudy Freeman. Among other things, Kutti is accused of urging Freeman to falsely alter her testimony about what happened during the night of the election at the State Farm Arena ballot processing site.
Who are the rest of the co-defendants in the case?
The Fulton County District Attorney's office accused Kutti, Trump and 17 others of around 41 counts for their attempts in trying to overturn the 2020 Presidential Election in favor of Trump. President Joe Biden won in Georgia.
Those accused include former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Mark Meadows, Kenneth Chesebro, Jeffrey Clark, Jenna Ellis, Ray Smith III, Robert Cheeley, Michael Roman, David Shafer, Shawn Micach Tresher Still, Stephen Lee, Harrison William Prescott Floyd, Sidney Powell, Cathleen Latham, Scott Hall and Misty Hampton.
