On Monday May 9th, news broke that “Young Slim Life” rapper Young Thug had been arrested on the charges of participating in gang activity and racketeering. Reportedly, 27 associates of Young Thug, born Jeffery Lamar Williams, were also named in the indictment, including fellow Atlanta rap artist Gunna.

In a press conference held earlier today (May 10th), the Fulton County DA, sheriff, and police chief, addressed the case. Atlanta officials were asked about inmate safety now that a significant number of rival gang members are in close proximity to one another. As part of the recent indictment, Young Thug, 33, was accused of giving permission to YSL members to assassinate rival gang member YFN Lucci while the rapper was incarcerated. According to news reporters, officials stated that inmates are being “separated and monitored” closely.
