TikTok creator Gabriela Gonzalez, who goes by Gabbie Gonzalez to the nearly one million people who follow her across platforms, returned to a downtown Los Angeles courtroom Thursday for what many expected to be a turning point in her murder-for-hire case. Instead, court officials pushed her arraignment back to September 14, according to FOX 11 Los Angeles, stretching out a legal saga that has now run more than two months since charges were first announced.
Gonzalez, 24, her father Francisco Gonzalez, 59, and her former boyfriend Kai Faron Cordrey, 26, each face a trio of felony counts — attempted murder, plus separate charges covering an alleged agreement to commit a killing and allegedly asking someone else to carry one out — according to the charging announcement from the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office. Prosecutors allege the three worked together toward the killing of singer Jack Avery, Gonzalez's former partner and the father of the 7-year-old daughter they share, amid a custody dispute that court filings describe in unusually harsh terms.
