TikTok star Gabbie Gonzalez was hit with three felony charges over an alleged scheme to kill her ex, Why Don't We singer Jack Avery. Her father Francisco Gonzalez is also charged and bail was set at $2 million. A judge barred her from contacting their 7-year-old daughter Lavender.
Court docs show the plot allegedly began in 2021 during a bitter custody fight. Gabbie and pal Kai Cordrey first tried recruiting ex-MMA fighter Dustin Barca to scare Jack off Kauai, then shifted to hunting a hitman on the dark web. Witnesses claim the goal was to stage the death as a car accident in Los Angeles, with Francisco reportedly bankrolling $10,000 and making coded calls about Bitcoin payments and verifying the target. An undercover agent got involved, leading to arrests this week in California and Florida. Jack has since filed for sole custody and a restraining order keeping Gabbie 100 yards away. Her estranged husband Cody reportedly posted “Karma” after the news broke. The Florida Bar says Francisco remains in good standing with no open cases against him. So… is the custody drama finally over or just heating up?
