Young Thug Trial Resumes as Judge Considers Mistrial Amid Controversial Evidence Errors
  • Share on:

Young Thug's gang and racketeering trial is set to resume on Tuesday after negotiations regarding potential plea deals. Judge Paige Reese Whitaker is considering a motion for a mistrial following a significant error by the prosecution, where a witness inadvertently read from a document that should have been redacted, leading to concerns about the trial's integrity. The trial, which began jury selection in January 2023, is the longest in Georgia history, with prosecutors alleging that Young Thug, whose real name is Jeffery Williams, leads the Young Slime Life gang, while defense attorneys argue that YSL is merely a record label.
