As previously reported, on May 9, 2022, Thug was arrested in Atlanta on gang-related charges.
Thug and Gunna were among the 28 people associated with YSL who were charged in a 56-count Georgia RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) Act indictment filed by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
His state RICO criminal trial began on November 27, 2023. Five of his co-defendants stood trial with him as well.
On October 31, 2024, Williams was released from jail after he accepted a plea deal and was sentenced to 40 years: 5 years in prison, 15 years of probation, and a backload of 20 years in prison if probation is violated.
Williams’ release and probation stipulations include him being banned from the Metro Atlanta area for 10 years, he can’t make gang-related music, and he has to do four annual anti-gang presentations/concerts for Atlanta, alongside having no contact with known gang members or co-defendants (other than Gunna and his biological brother, both of whom were among his co-defendants).
