Is Young Thug Released Yet? Updated Information About YSL Case
Is Young Thug released yet? Since his arrest, Young Thug has been spending his days advocating for bail. The rapper from Georgia, whose request for bond had previously been rejected, tried once more to persuade the judge to do so.
A judge rejected Young Thug's request for bond on June 2. The rapper is declared innocent in his RICO case, the judge said, but he ultimately decided against granting the motion out of concern for the intimidation of potential witnesses.
During the hearing, Thug's legal team emphasized the rapper's involvement in the community. His lawyer Brian Steel had several witnesses testify about Williams' character in an effort to prove that Williams would follow the conditions of his bond, if it was granted. Steel called upon witnesses like his manager Garfield Larmond and record executive Kevin Liles, who flew into Atlanta to testify in the hearing.
Liles has known the rapper for the past 10-12 years and described his working relationship with Williams. He's currently signed to 300 Entertainment as a solo artist and also has a separate deal for Young Stoner Life. The record executive also said that he would back Williams "personally and professionally" if he was granted bond. While he was wiping away tears on the stand, Liles also gave his thoughts about the prosecution using Thugger's lyrics against him in the 56-count indictment against him and 27 other members of YSL including Gunna and Yak Gotti.
In addition to testimony from Liles, Williams' lawyer also submitted videos from Machine Gun Kelly and 300 Entertainment co-founder Lyor Cohen, who both vouched for Williams. The judge's ruling means Young Thug will have to remain in jail until his trial on January 9, 2023 after his bond was denied.
