His client faces life imprisonment.
As we learned yesterday, Young Thug and Gunna would be two of 28 defendants named in an indictment from Fulton County, Georgia. As reported by the media WSB-TV, the charges include conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, murder, armed robbery and participation in criminal gang activity. While it looks like Gunna’s situation is a little less serious than Young Thug’s, he shouldn’t avoid a trial. For the Thugger, it’s more complicated since he was arrested and is already behind bars in Fulton County Jail just hours after the feds raided his home. Thug’s attorney has come out of silence to claim that the Young Slime Life boss has done nothing to justify such a display of force. Brian Steel even said he was convinced of the innocence of his client. This is what he told the channel WSB-TV.
“I will tell you the answer to all these allegations: Mr. Williams has committed no crime. And I will fight to my last drop of blood to prove it.”

At the same time, the authorities held a press conference which said the exact opposite.
“No matter how famous or notorious you are, if you’re in Fulton County, Georgia, and you’re committing crimes, and those crimes are being committed as part of a street gang, you’re going to become a target and a focus. of interest to the district attorney’s office, and we will prosecute you to the fullest extent permitted by law.”
The charges against Young Thug and Gunna are very heavy and could earn them life in prison in the words of the prosecutor in charge of the case.
