Young Thug: D.A. Says Gang Sympathizers Threatening Witnesses In YSL RICO Case

August 16, 2022

Fulton County, GA – Young Thug and YSL’s RICO case is the subject of several witness threats after private legal documents were leaked to the public in recent days.

Per WSB-TV, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis revealed a leaked document contained the identity of one YSL associate, who is cooperating with authorities in the case.

Willis claimed that threats have since been made against the witness and their family members. The D.A.’s office is still unsure exactly where the leak came from, which showed a portion of the person’s cooperating statement circulating on social media.



Young Thug’s attorney, Brian Steel, agreed that the leaks must stop for a fair case to move forward, but he ultimately believes his client will be exonerated and has maintained Thugger’s innocence since his arrest in May.

Thug’s legal troubles worsened last week when he was hit with a new gang charge, new drug charges, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony and possession of a machine gun, according to WSB-TV.

Many of the charges stem from weapons and drugs seized by police at the rapper’s home in Buckhead, Atlanta during his arrest on May 9. He will remain behind bars until his trial begins in January.
