Young Thug’s ongoing YSL RICO trial has been delayed to 2024 after one of his co-defendants was stabbed in prison, earlier this week. Judge Ural Glanville made the announcement in court on Tuesday after putting the trial in a recess the day prior. Meghann Cuniff reports that the case will resume on January 2, 2024.
“Let me go ahead and tell you where we are,” Judge Glanville told the jury. “Remember yesterday we recessed because one of our participants had a medical issues and I was telling you about that? Well, unfortunately, that medical condition still exists. Given the length of time that we will probably address that, it might be just more prudent to recess you. An early recess. Instead of recessing you this Friday as the Court’s plan was originally, I’m gonna recess you for the holidays, today.”
