Young Thug is still locked up and will go to trial in a few weeks.
Thug's lawyer Brian Steel is quite worried about this development.
Young Thug lawyer, Brian Steele, says the biggest problem in this case is YSL members are taking plea deals that incriminate Thugger. As of now… Gunna, Slimelife Shawty and Duke have all took plea deals. pic.twitter.com/b3y3zXBJ0o

"That's the problem of the case, it's coming from the world of people who are getting deals to say, 'yeah he was there, I saw him around, or, he gave the order or I heard from someone else he gave the order'. That's what this case is about. You're not going to hear any confession of Jeffery Williams," Steele said. "When you target a human being who is so well known you make it easy for the other person to say 'oh I can be released from the location that I don't want to be, and all I have to say is I know something about Jeffery Williams?'"
