AceShowbiz - Ca$h Out has broken his silence after he was charged with 13 counts including rape, aggravated sodomy and sex trafficking. Making use of social media, the "She Twerkin" rapper shared a Bible verse.
On Thursday, April 14, the "Cashin' Out" artist turned to Instagram Story to seemingly address his recent run-in with the law. "The Lord says I am the one who strengthens you," his message began. "Why should you fear mortals who are no more enduring than grass. Have you forgotten the lord who made you?"
"Who stretched out the heavens and laid the earths foundations? Why should you live in constant fear of the fury of those who oppress you of those who are ready to destroy you?" the verse continued. "Their fury can no longer touch you. Those who are prisoners will soon be set free and be even more prosperous." He ended his post with a hashtag that read, "#FREECASHOUT."
According to a report by local Atlanta news station WSB-TV published on Wednesday, April 13, Ca$h Out, born John Michael Hakeem Gibson, is the central figure of a six-person indictment totaling 41 charges. The rapper reportedly personally faces 13 charges including sex trafficking, rape, aggravated sodomy and racketeering.
"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 told the news outlet. "He's a very talented musical performer. Unfortunately, he didn't stay in that business, and he branched off to the business that finds him under indictment."
The DA accused Ca$h Out of using his status as a rapper to lure women into prostitution via social media and alleged he used two Atlanta locations to commit the crimes he's charged with. In one instance, he's accused of beating a woman with a belt. The 31-year-old rapper is currently in custody of the Fulton County Police.
Fulton County Deputy District Attorney Earnell Winfrey said that Ca$h Out pleaded not guilty to most of these allegations. However, the new indictment included additional charges such as racketeering.
One of Ca$h Out's co-defendants had reportedly been charged with pointing a gun at a victim, while another was also being charged with rape and the same gun-related charge. According to Earnell, Ca$h Out is facing 25 years to life in prison if found guilty.
