Prominent rapper Young Thug (real name, Jeffery Williams) has been arrested and charged with a raft of offenses, including violations of the RICO statute involving his alleged participation in an alleged gang.

His partner-in-rap, Gunna (real name Sergio Kitchens), has also been charged in this mess. Twenty-eight other associates of the Young Stoner Life (also known as Young Slime Life) label indicted with various allegations that range from murder :o to robbery and drug dealing.

In the indictment document, he is also accused of threatening to kill a man at a shopping mall; renting a car that was used during the murder of a man in 2015, Donovan Thomas Jr; and intending to distribute methamphetamine – but he has not been charged with these individual offences, described as “overt acts” that furthered the broader criminal conspiracy.

Another YSL rapper, Yak Gotti – real name Deamonte Kendrick – is one of five accused of the murder of Donovan Thomas Jr. Three people accused of being YSL members are also accused of the attempted murder of rapper YFN Lucci, who was later stabbed in jail after he was indicted on a murder charge.

Looks like Thug and his buddies are in some deep doo-doo.  :P

Thug has employed a lawyer to get bail set for his release. Thug claims that his jail conditions are inhumane, and that the food is inedible.  8-P
