Fulton County Jury Fails to Reach Verdict in Historic Young Slime Life Gang Trial as Deliberations Continue After Holiday Break
The Fulton County jury in the "Young Slime Life" gang and racketeering trial was unable to reach a verdict after over eight hours of deliberation and has been sent home for the holiday weekend. Defendants Shannon Stillwell and Deamonte Kendrick face serious charges, including murder, which could lead to life sentences if convicted. The trial, which began in January 2023, has featured testimony from various witnesses, including law enforcement and former associates, while the prosecution relied heavily on social media evidence and rap lyrics. Deliberations are set to resume on Monday morning.
