The rapper, whose legal name is John Michael Hakeem Gibson, was found guilty by a jury last week.
County of Fulton, Ga. – The rapper of Atlanta Ca $ h out, formerly known for his successes, in particular “cashin ‘out” and “She Twerkin”, will spend the rest of his life in prison after being sentenced on Monday for his conviction for accusations, including rape and sexual trafficking.
Ca $ h out, whose legal name is John Michael Hakeem Gibson, was sentenced last week after a month in a racketeering case which accused him of leading a traffic and prostitution company.
His complete sentence includes a perpetuity imprisonment and then 70 years in prison. He was sentenced to prison sentences on several other charges that have been made simultaneously, which add any additional years.
His additional conditions do not include any contact with any victim or their families, registering as a sexual offender and staying away from several addresses in Metro Atlanta, including the BLVD Industrial Fulton. corridor.
Monday, in court, several victims and their families described the pain to which they had been submitted, feeling “disgusting” and “unlikely”, as well as the SSPT, depression, anxiety and other conditions which result from being treated and forced to prostitution. The parents of a victim declared that they had used his status as a famous musician and his wealth to “steal their person … literally stole the soul of all the women they have victims”.
“For the rest of my life, I will fear that he kills me, all because I would not do what he wanted me to do,” said a victim.
The rapper, for his part, rejected that he was guilty of trafficking, coercion or rape, claiming that the jury had made “bad judgment”, suggesting that the victims had been “intimidated” to testify against him and to invoke Jesus as a falsely accused figure.
His lawyer had asked for a 30 -year sentence, saying that the accusation had recommended 25 years before the trial, that he had not accepted because he “wanted his day to court”. The lawyer asked the judge not to impose a “trial sanction”, which would lead to a more severe conviction.
The judge, before reading his sentence, said that evidence at trial had shown “the worst human behavior towards other human beings”. She said that the jury’s verdict reflected that the accusation had proven beyond all reasonable doubts that “the diabolical conduct of the defendants had occurred” and her sentence would be “reactive to that”.
It was sentenced last week after a one -month trial on charges that included rape, aggravated sodomy, sex trafficking and racketeering, among other violations.
Two others, Linda Smith, her mother, known as “Morenika Vinnie” and “Mama Ca $ h”, and Tyrone Taylor, were also tried and were convicted.
Linda Smith had 30 years in prison and Taylor was also 60 years old.

“Although now dissolved administrative, Cash Out has used PMG (Pyrex Music Group, LLC), as well as this brand name` Cash Out ”, to promote its music and the brand ‘`in cash’ ‘, and thanks to the use of deception and then coercion, women seduced and recruited from social media platforms to engage in commercial sexual activities.” indications for reintegration.

More about the case
During the trial last week, Gibson’s lawyer Careton Matthews argued that the state had not proven his case and called some of the accusations against him. He also underlined the key testimonies of the accusers, who, according to him, voluntarily returned to Gibson and contradicted themselves on several occasions.
“What I do is that I show you everything you need to consult the statements and when they, when you confront them with something that is not correct, and they tell you something one day and then they tell you something different for another day, these are inconsistencies,” said Matthews.
Matthews accused the pursuit of the overload by presenting contradictory counts for the same incidents.
He also called into question the credibility of co-accused who received agreements for cooperating with the prosecutors. Matthews also accused prosecutors of having had a lack of expert witnesses in their range. He asked the jury to examine the lack of evidence when he decided if one of the accused was guilty.
Defense lawyers for Gibson’s mother said it was only mentioned in the indictment and should not be involved in the case.
The case of prosecutors, who presented their closing arguments on Thursday, strongly relied on the messages of mobile phones, financial files and testimonies.
“It was a reign of terror for seven years, probably more, but seven years, this is what we have on the books for the proof,” said the assistant prosecutor of Fulton, Earllelle Winfrey, in his closing arguments.
Prosecutors said Gibson orchestrated a criminal business using a network of women, including his mother. According to prosecutors, Gibson recruited women for prostitution, controlled their finances and used the product to support his lifestyle.
Lawyers have accused Gibson of using fear and manipulation to maintain control. Prosecutors said women were isolated from their families, had their identity document took and were trained not to speak to the police. Several alleged victims testified that Gibson had defeated them, forced them to publish sexual advertisements and retained money.
