The identity of a witness in the RICO case against Young Thug has been leaked online…leading to a series of threats against the witness.
“YSL enthusiasts and/or actual gang members are threatening someone they believe is cooperating with the State,” Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis told WSB-TV. “And not only that person, but their very small children.”
Willis added, “We are going to have to do things to make sure that the witnesses are safe. We need people to understand that they can cooperate, they can do the right thing, and the State will be here to protect them.”
The cops are now working to discover who was responsible for the leak. The rapper’s lawyer is asking his fans to stop the leak.
“This is putting people at risk and it’s poisoning the jury pool,” Thugger’s attorney Brian Steel told WSB-TV. “Please stop immediately. Whomever is placing items of discovery online is not doing anybody a favor. It is totally inappropriate to try to try this case in social media. This will be tried fairly and justly in Fulton County Superior Court.”
