Summary
Sept. 14 is the new arraignment date for Gabriela Gonzalez, ex-boyfriend Kai Cordrey and her father Francisco after defense lawyers said they needed more time to review extensive discovery before entering pleas.
Los Angeles prosecutors opposed the delay, saying they wanted to move the case forward, but the judge granted it after Gonzalez and Cordrey waived their speedy-arraignment rights.
Prosecutors allege the three plotted in 2021 to kill pop singer Jack Avery — Gonzalez's child's father — after a long custody fight, discussing a staged car crash and Bitcoin payments.
Francisco Gonzalez was arrested in Florida and is awaiting extradition to Los Angeles, while Gabriela Gonzalez remains out on bond with a GPS monitor as the case proceeds.
