Life

[edit]

Kutti is from Nebraska.[1] In 1997, she and her husband opened a G'Bani, a luxury high-heeled shoe store in Chicago.[2] Kutti ran stores in Old Town and Gold Coast Historic District.[1] She later founded the media and entertainment advisory company, Trevian Worldwide.[3][2] Kutti worked as a stylist for actress Regina King.[1] Until 2018, she was a publicist for singer R. Kelly.[1] In September 2018, she began working for Kanye West as a publicist and later director of operations.[4] In January 2020, she registered as a lobbyist for Red White and Bloom, a Canadian cannabis company with a farm in Granville, Illinois.[1] Formerly a supporter of politician Hillary Clinton, Kutti attended a rally for Donald Trump in June 2020 where she held a Black Voices for Trump sign.[1] In 2020, she was the campaign manager for U.S. House candidate Angela Stanton-King.[1][4] By 2021, Kutti was no longer associated with West.[3] In September 2021, Kutti's online profile listed herself as a member of the U.S. president Donald Trump's Young Black Leadership Council.[4][3]

On January 4, 2021, after the 2020 United States presidential election in Georgia, Kutti confronted election worker Ruby Freeman.[5] In June 2022, as part of the 2020 Georgia election investigation, Kutti's testimony was sought for a special grand jury in Fulton County, Georgia.[6] In August 2023, she was indicted as a defendant in State of Georgia v. Donald J. Trump, et al.[7] She allegedly participated in the attempts to influence Freeman's testimony.[7] She is accused of visiting Freeman's home, falsely telling a neighbor that "she was a crisis manager attempting to 'help' Freeman"; meeting with Freeman at the Cobb County PD for over an hour, again under the pretense of offering help; and asking Freeman to give false testimony.[7][8] She was booked on August 24, 2023.[8]

In June 2024, she claimed that in the Holocaust "Jews died but it was NOT 6M".[9]
