Atlanta rapper Ca$h Out has been accused of multiple crimes in a
new indictment.
According to news station WRDW-TV/WAGT-TV, the “She Twerkin'”
artist—legal name John Michael Hakeem Gibson—is facing multiple
charges of rape, sex trafficking, and luring women into
prostitution. According to the indictment, Gibson and four
others formed Pyrez Music Group LLC to promote Ca$h Out but used
the brand to coerce, entice, and recruit women for their crimes.
The report names Linda Smith aka Morenika Vinie and “Mama Cash
Out,” Kierra Danieele Adams aka “Boots,” Tyrone Orlando Taylor
aka “Rooskie,” and Demetrius Lamont Edwards aka “Drama” as the
other defendants.
Atlanta news station WBS-TV 2 reports that the district
attorney’s office said Gibson used his celebrity status to push
women into sex work. According to the Fulton County jail
records, Gibson was booked on September 20, 2021, and has not
been released.
“The most troubling aspect of this case is that women have been
victimized and brutalized within our community by people who had
a chance to do something else with their lives,” Fulton County
District Attorney Fani Willis said.
“We’ve rescued two so far,” explained Fulton County deputy
district attorney Earnell Winfrey. “Some of these women are our
most vulnerable women and he lured them in, let them believe
that he cared about them and that he would take care of them,
only to flip the script and then began to pimp them out.”
According to Winfrey, the rapper headed the organization and
faces 13 counts including racketeering, trafficking a person for
sexual servitude, rape, and aggravated sodomy. Gibson also faces
charges of keeping a place of prostitution and beating a second
victim with a belt. If convicted, he faces 25 years to life
behind bars.
