Young Thug Trial: Deputy Arrested For Allegedly Taking Bribes From YSL Codefendant’s Mother

by

The Young Thug trial continues to develop in odd and diverse ways, even if recent events don’t move the actual case along. Moreover, the latest update concerns a former Fulton County Sheriff’s Deputy, whom authorities reportedly arrested last week and hit with various charges. Moreover, authorities fired 31-year-old Kendra Bailey after accusations of accepting bribes to give inmates drugs and other forms of contraband. One of the inmates in question is Marquavious “Qua” Huey, one of Thugger’s codefendants in the YSL RICO case. Bailey’s specific charges are two counts of bribery, four counts of oath violation, and two counts of receiving and handing off banned materials to inmates without authorization.

“Ms. Bailey indirectly received money from inmate Marquavious Huey by accepting $500 from Ms. Malissa Huey [Qua’s mother] (via Apple Pay) on May 6, 2024,” the police report alleges. “This would cause a reasonable person to believe it influenced her job performance because Ms. Bailey failed to perform the official action of seizing contraband (e.g., substance appearing to be white pills) from inmate Huey.” It’s unclear whether this will affect the Young Thug and YSL trial in any way.

Furthermore, Bailey allegedly also received $1,000 from Qua’s sister in order to allow him in prohibited areas of his prison to sell drugs. Not only that, but an investigation concluded that she allegedly received $17,000 at a minimum from other trades and bribes with other inmates and their families. Finally, authorities allegedly found security footage of the former Sheriff’s Deputy using a “white styrofoam meal tray” to conceal the items that she was delivering to inmates. As of writing this article, this particular situation doesn’t implicate anyone else in the Young Thug and YSL trial.

As for other updates, this court case continues to break records. It became the longest trial in Georgia’s state history and its 45 motions for mistrial also etched it into the history books. We’ll see whether or not the near future holds any more significant updates for Young Thug and company. Perhaps the end of 2024 will bring us into a new era and timeline for the trial.

The YSL case is only getting weirder. After months of severings, twists, and courtroom confusion, another shocking chapter has just been reported. According to WSB-TV, Akeiba Stanley, a Fulton County deputy, has been arrested on charges of conspiracy and smuggling. According to court records, Stanley has been accused of communicating with Christian Eppinger via Instagram. Eppinger is one of the many defendants in the sprawling YSL case.

Furthermore, Stanley is accused of agreeing to help Eppinger to smuggle contraband while Eppinger remained incarcerated. Additionally, Stanley allegedly snuck items to Eppinger in his cell. The full list of charges that Stanley is facing are reckless conduct, violation of oath of office, conspiracy to commit a felony and hindering apprehension or punishment of a criminal.

The details of Stanley’s arrest are wild, as should be expected from this case. Along with using Instagram to communicate, Stanley is also accused of visiting Eppinger in his cell and further communicating with Eppinger via an illegal cell phone. However, it’s not the only thing that has happened related to the case in the past few days. Earlier this week, officials seized the laptop of Eric Johnson, Eppinger’s attorney. Reportedly, Johnson had been using the laptop to communicate with YSL members not currently in custody. However, going back to

As mentioned, it’s the latest twist in the ever-growing, and slow-moving, YSL trial. Given the numerous legal maneuvers in play, juries have still not been seated. However, the jury selection process began in January and could continue throughout the summer. Rapper Young Thug is just one of 28 original defendants in the large-scale RICO case. Thug remains as one of nine people who are still facing trial. This is a developing story and we’ll have any updates here at HotNewHipHop.
