Jurors in the Young Thug gang trial returned to the Fulton County courthouse on Monday, facing a new judge and key witness Kenneth "Woody" Copeland, who continued to provide evasive testimony. Copeland, who had been granted immunity for his testimony, repeatedly stated "I don't recall" while being questioned about past police interviews, expressing frustration and claiming he felt pressured to testify. His testimony is crucial to the case against Young Thug, whose real name is Jeffery Williams, and Copeland even implicated a deceased friend in a related murder for the first time during his testimony.
