YSL Defendant Strip Searched, Weed Found Sewn Into His Underwear

The YSL RICO case has had no shortage of shocking developments and wild occurrences as of late. Moreover, outlets previously reported news of a huge scuffle happening somewhere in the court house during a hearing. In fact, it was such a loud exchange that even those in the courtroom were able to hear it. Now, we have an explanation for that, as footage recently released of a YSL codefendant getting strip searched. Not only that, but officials found marijuana sewn into Rodalius Ryan’s underwear after they smelled weed on him.

Furthermore, the body cam footage came from Michael Seidel of WSB-TV and reveals the whole exchange. While Ryan maintained that the smell was nothing, police pleaded with him to come clean, as they didn’t want to have to search him. Nevertheless, they eventually attempted to handcuff him and he began to scream, which is what the courtroom heard. After eventually stripping him down and searching his belongings, they found weed sewn into his undergarments and kept Ryan detained. While this is an ugly and disheartening development, other updates point to some codefendants potentially seeing partial freedom.

YSL Defendant Stripped, Weed Found In His Underwear

To elaborate, Miles Farley recently was granted bond after his lawyer Anastasios Manettas was arrested in court for carrying prescription drugs on his person. Moreover, he saw prompt release on bond and his legal colleagues expect all charges against him to be dropped. However, it certainly didn’t paint the defendants in a better light, especially after multiple instances of attempted smuggling of contraband. In addition, it also speaks to increasing tensions and distrust between the parties that, however legitimate, just makes for more antagonistic views on the matter.

Meanwhile, another YSL codefendant recently was ordered to undergo a mental evaluation after he claimed that Donald Trump and Joe Biden were giving him legal advice. Not only that, but lawyers are pushing for his case to be tried separately so as to avoid further delays in the indictment-wide trial. Another aspect that has delayed the process significantly is jury selection, which hasn’t received many recent updates. On that note, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on the YSL RICO case.

YSL Lawyer Bonds Out Following Courthouse Prescription Drug Arrest

The YSL RICO trial is still working to put together a jury. Already though, the courtroom has seen endless odd behaviour from potential members, defendants, and now, even attorneys. On Thursday (April 20), the lawyer representing Miles Farley (aka Lil Miles or Slato), Anastasios Manettas, was arrested in court for carrying prescription drugs on his person. As Rolling Stone reports, while police were dragging their culprit off, he attempted to throw his phone to his colleague, Chadha Jimenez, to avoid having it searched by authorities.

Unfortunately for Manettas, he missed and instead hit an officer. As a result, another charge was added, this one for assaulting a member of the police. Speaking with The FADER on Friday (April 21) morning, Jimenez confirmed that his co-worker has since been released on bond. “He’s home now, which is good,” YSL’s legal representative told the outlet. “The charges were bullshit. At the end of the day, I predict that both charges will be dropped. He’s gonna have a nice little civil lawsuit against the Sheriff’s Department and those deputies that violated his rights.”

Attorney Anastasios Manettas Searched in Court

Jimenez’s update also noted that Manettas is “scheduled for a bond hearing today for his client.” He shared, “I’m hoping he gets a bond. Mr. Farley meets all the criteria. The Ayala factors, which are the factors that the court considers in whether or not someone should be out on bond.” Among the alleged YSL affiliates on trial, Lil Miles is a standout as he has no prior criminal record and is a college graduate.

However, unlike bigger names like Thugger and Gunna, Farley is facing murder charges. He previously refused a plea deal from the prosecution, granting him probation in exchange for admitting that Young Stoner Life is a criminal street gang. Several others involved in the case have already taken deals, while others, such as the So Much Fun rapper, have been denied bond three times now. Are you surprised by the antics unfolding during the YSL RICO trial? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for any updates on Young Thug and his co-defendants.

YSL Lil Rod

During jury selection at the Fulton County Courthouse in Atlanta, GA on April 19th and 20th, the ongoing trial of Young Thug’s YSL took an unexpected turn.

YSL Attorney Handcuffed During Drug Search

The RICO case of Young Thug and the YSL crew has taken so many twists and turns that their lawyers are also facing plenty of investigation. Moreover, defense attorneys complained of a new security protocol that forces them to be handcuffed while officials search their belongings for drugs. Furthermore, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, lawyer Anastasios Manettas faced accusations of harvesting prescription drugs and authorities handcuffed him during a search. Security brought him to the back of the room and had orders to search every bag and envelope. Previously in this case, a codefendant tried to pass Thugger a Percocet pill while in the courtroom.

However, that hand-to-hand deal reportedly stunned Young Thug and caught him completely by surprise, according to his legal team. Not only that, but many more instances of contraband and people sneaking drugs into jails and courtrooms contributed to this new policy. As such, these strict cuff-and-search procedures are reportedly unlike anything legal counsel had seen before in their careers. While YSL attorneys complained about this process, their complaints arrived amid a sea of circumstances that might warrant such checks.

YSL Attorney Handcuffed Due To New Policy

Still, that’s not to say that everything the court decided concerning this RICO case has been for the greater good. For example, many expressed disappointment and anger over the incredibly lengthy jury selection process, whether directed at the jurors or the court authorities. These delays occurred for many reasons; some logistical, others due to jurors misbehaving. What many can’t deny is how this process only keeps these codefendants behind bars for longer. Despite concerns, hopefully the delays result in the cleanest and most just rule of law possible.

Meanwhile, Young Thug is keeping his head high amid the YSL trial, showing fans his strength. Recently, footage emerged of Thugger smiling in court, one of many instances where people reacted to his reactions. Many focused on footage of distress and tiredness, but the MC seems to be as positive as he can be given the circumstances. For the latest updates on Young Thug and the YSL RICO case, log back into HNHH.

Lawyers In Young Thug’s YSL RICO Case Threatened With Contempt Over “Professionalism”

Judge Ural Glanville got into it with attorneys Anastassios Manettas and Eric R. Johnson, who are representing Miles Farley and Christian Eppinger in the ongoing YSL RICO case involving Young Thug. Glanville threatened them with jail time for contempt of court after Manettas refused to buy lunch for all the lawyers in the case. He also ordered them to complete a 17-page essay on “the importance of professionalism,” and “treating one’s opponents with civility.”

“A 17-page paper on the importance of professionalism in the legal field and treating one’s opponents with civility. Paper is to be published quality in APA format and at least 10 primary and secondary sources,” the Judge said in a clip from court uploaded by Law&Crime Network. “April 28 at noon or you do 20 days,” Glanville said to Johnson.

Before the day ended, Glanville further reminded the court of being professional. “It has been brought to my attention that some of you at various times have gotten cross purposes with our court personnel. And this falls under the general category of professionalism and our obligations as counsel…. Do not provide extra items in contravention of the things that our deputy have told you,” the judge also said. “On a basic level, folks, all of us are still subject to the rules to include the court. So please don’t put yourself cross purposes with the court.”

The latest incident comes after one lawyer in the trial went viral on social media, Monday, for using the term, “cap,” while addressing the judge in court. The full case is expected to break records as the longest criminal trial in Fulton County history. It is now the third month of jury selection and experts expect the trial itself to take at least nine months in total. The time commitment is reportedly further playing a role in the difficulty of finding a jury.
