Fulton County District Attorney Seeks Probation Revocation for Young Thug After Social Media Post Sparks Threats Against Witness

• Share on:

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has filed a motion to revoke rapper Young Thug's probation, citing his online post of a photo of gang trial investigator Marissa Viverito, which allegedly incited threats against her and the DA's office. Young Thug, whose real name is Jeffrey Williams, had recently pleaded guilty in a lengthy gang trial and was sentenced to probation, with a condition to stay away from metro Atlanta for a decade. His attorney maintains that Williams did not violate any probation conditions, while prosecutors describe the incident as part of a broader campaign of intimidation against the justice system.
