Trevian Kutti, former Kanye West publicist, booked into Fulton County Jail in Georgia Trump election case
Trevian Kutti, the former publicist of rapper Kanye West, was released from the Fulton County Jail after being booked on Friday morning
Kutti was granted a $75,000 bond earlier this week. She is being charged with violating the State’s RICO Act, conspiracy to commit solicitation of false statements and writings and influencing witnesses.
Kutti visited the Cobb County home of election worker Ruby Freeman claiming to be a crisis manager and told Freeman to confess to committing election fraud or risk being arrested, prosecutors say. Co-defendant Harrison Floyd put Kutti in touch with Freeman.
“Kutti is well known in other circles as Kanye West’s onetime publicist,” Deadline reported. She also represented R. Kelly at one time.
Kutti visited Freeman saying “she was sent by a “high-profile individual,” whom she didn’t identify, to give Freeman an urgent message: confess to Trump’s voter-fraud allegations, or people would come to her home in 48 hours, and she’d go to jail,” Reuters reported in 2021.
West, long associated with Trump, told Reuters that Kutti “was not associated” with him when she met Freeman.
