ATLANTA, Ga. (Atlanta News First) - Jurors heard from another witness in the trial of an Atlanta rapper and two co-defendants who are accused of multiple charges, including sëx trafficking.
According to the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office, John Michael Hakeem Gibson, also known as Ca$h Out, is facing charges of rape, sëx trafficking and luring women into prostitution.
On Friday, a woman testified she dated and was managed by Gibson while they lived together in multiple metro Atlanta homes over several years. The woman said she and other women were performing sëx acts for money, which were allegedly set up by posting ads on social media or by walking the streets.
The witness claimed Gibson instructed the women to put the money they made into kitchen drawers. At one point, the woman testified she would send the money she made to either Gibson or his mother via digital methods.
Gibson’s mother, Linda Smith — aka Mama Cash Out — is also on trial.
Gibson and four others allegedly used their record company, Pyrez Music Group LLC, to coerce, entice and recruit young women to engage in commercial sexµal activity, according to the indictment.
Prosecutors claim the women were told they would receive financial opportunities and personal benefits, including increased power and status within the company.
The defendants’ attorneys denied the accusations in opening statements.
The other defendants listed in the indictment are:
- Linda Smith, aka “Morenika Vinie” or “Mama Cash Out”
- Kierra Danieele Adams, aka “Boots”
- Tyrone Orlando Taylor, aka “Rooskie”
- Demetrius Lamont Edwards, aka “Drama”
