The news outlet obtained exclusive footage of Young Thug being taken into custody on Monday night (May 9). The indictment alleges the Young Stoner Life (YSL) rapper is facing charges of participation in street gang activity and conspiring to violate the RICO Act, while Gunna is facing one count of conspiring to violate the RICO Act as well.
Seiden reports, Young Thug is facing some very “serious allegations.” Prosecutors allege, “YSL is a criminal street gang that started in late 2012 in the Cleveland Avenue area of ATL” and is affiliated with the national Bloods gang.
The documents reportedly state Young Thug rented a 2014 Infiniti Q50 sedan from Hertz rental car company, which was later used in the commission of the murder of Donovan Thomas, Jr., a rival gang member, in January 2015. Prosecutors believe two associates of YSL, Christian Eppinger and Antonio Sumlin, worked to get permission of Young Thug to make a second attempt to murder YFN Lucci while he’s behind bars at Fulton County.
