YFN Lucci ‘s lawyer has accused the government of being racist for the case they have against Young Thug and Gunna.
“What I think is that we’ve exaggerated what gangs are in Atlanta. We’ve exaggerated what RICO is in Atlanta,” attorney Drew Findling told TMZ.
“We’re not really indicting anybody for Quentin Tarantino films, are we? We’re not indicting anybody for ‘I shot the sheriff, but I didn’t shoot the deputy.'” Findling says the feds are targeting Black and Brown artists and that “It’s completely f*cking racist. That’s what it is.”
Thugger, Gunna and 26 other alleged members of the Young Slime Life crew were charged with felony conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act.
Young Thug was also hit with an additional felony charge of “participation in criminal street gang activity” and 7 more felonies.
The additional felony charges are possession of marijuana with intent to distribute; possession of a Schedule III, IV, or V controlled substance with intent to distribute; possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony; possession of a sawed-off shotgun, sawed-off rifle, machine gun, dangerous weapon, or silencer; and three counts of being a person employed or associated with a criminal street gang to conduct or participate in criminal gang activity through the commission of a crime.
