Not sure what the jury thought about #YoungThug's SEX records shirt. Under that it: Truly Humble Under God (which is what his attorney says really stands for). From the jury perspective, I don't think they would have been able to read that part but certainly they saw the bright, neon yellow SEX.

His choice in clothing during this trial is unbelievable. I would think he would try to portray himself in a less rebellious way to the jurors.

IMO his clothing has been chosen with great consideration and is being used to make pointed statements (no matter how messed up his logic might be). Although, I’m not sure the jury is necessarily his targeted audience.

Take the infamous wolf sweater, for example. I don’t care what his attorney and/or girlfriend have claimed. His decision to wear THAT sweater one week after the State called him a wolf is NO coincidence. I’m sorry, it’s just not.

I agree completely.

Not the first time the court's Zoom has been infiltrated by a supporter of Young . Back in December 2022, someone on Zoom barged in with some full frontal nudity.

It appears someone has gotten into the courtroom's Zoom and is yelling "Free ! Mistrial!" as the courtroom is going on a 10-minute break.

WATCH LIVE: Young YSL RICO Trial — GA v. Jeffery Williams et al — Day 17​

Atlanta rapper Young , born Jeffery Williams, faces multiple charges under Georgia's RICO Act. Williams, believed to be the leader of the YSL collective, supposedly operated a "criminal street gang" from outside his residence. Williams faces eight charges in a 65-count indictment. These charges include drug possession, possession with intent to distribute, and participating in criminal gang activity as an individual employed by a criminal street gang. Opening statements will take place on November 27.

On the stand: Co-defendant Trontavious Stephens aka Tick aka Slug.

Defense Attorney, Brian Steele continues cross-examination

 

[arielilane]

Court is in recess until 9:30 a.m. (most likely 10:00) ET tomorrow.

Mr. Stephens, will be back on the stand tomorrow.
Judge Glanville advised not to give out the Zoom link to anybody, after what happened in his courtroom today.

I guess this person doesn't know that if a mistrial is granted, they have to do this all over again. It doesn't mean that he's free............

This is the first trial I’ve watched where I expect a complete circus everyday.

 

[AzPistonsGirl]

I can't even believe the stuff that keeps happening in this case. Outrageous. As in, people should be outraged.

 

[Tippy Lynn]

When the trial started the Judge said there wouldn’t be court Jan 15-19 for MLK Holiday. So, no court all next week…..arg!

 

[Tippy Lynn]

No court until Monday, January 22nd.
