Gunna is not prepared to sit behind bars until his trial and has applied for bond for the fourth time.
“The defense produced real evidence that Kitchens is a good candidate for pretrial bond and has offered an abundance of conditions that will reasonably assure the Court that Kitchens poses no significant risk or threat to any person,” the filing reportedly reads according to Rolling Stone. “Yet, for some unknown reason, the Court has repeatedly ignored this evidence and the proposed conditions.”
Last week, Judge Ural Glanville says he did not want to release Gunna because he feared there would be witness intimidation.
“The other challenge that our imperfect system hasn’t figured out a way to deal with other than reconsidering the issue of bond and changing circumstances of bond is [to] acknowledge for proof that may or may not come to trial, but the state brings that burden at this point in time,” said the judge.
“And it’s not a perfect system in the sense that we won’t know until that point in time whether or not many of these statements that have been preferred by the state will come to pass. But at this point in time, I don’t find any change in circumstances that would allow me or move me [to] changing my decision as to bond.”
