In a video posted on social media on Sunday, November 8, 2026, Miller confirmed that a pretrial hearing had taken place on Tuesday, November 3, but said reviewing the available court records unveiled no new information from that session.

"I have a quick update on Frederick Kumi, better known as Abu Trica, the Ghanaian influencer who was extradited from Ghana to the United States for his alleged role in a large-scale romance fraud scheme," Miller said in the video.

He added:

"So we know that another pretrial hearing took place on November 3rd. Now I went back and checked the court documents, and nothing has been registered in the documents yet."

What the court records show

Miller explained that the absence of newly filed documents meant it was impossible to determine what was discussed or decided at the November 3 hearing.

No motions or signed orders appeared to have been registered by the court following the session.

Despite this, he left the door open for more information to emerge, noting that records from the hearing could still be uploaded at a later date.

"Could something be posted later from that November 3rd pretrial hearing? Yes, and once it does get posted, we'll be sure to pass that along to you," Miller stated.
