Fulton County prosecutors have filed a motion to revoke the probation of Young Thug.
Thugger – real name Jeffery Williams – ended a lengthy criminal trial in October 2024. He pleaded guilty to charges leveled against him. The rapper is serving a 15-year probation bid after accepting a plea deal.
On Wednesday (April 2), the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office filed a motion asking a judge to revoke Thug’s probation. The move comes after Thugger blasted DA Marissa Viverito in a now-deleted social media post.
Fulton County prosecutors are seemingly gunning for the Atlanta rapper to serve his “backlogged” 20 years in prison, alleging that his “continued presence in the community under probationary supervision presents a clear and present danger to public safety and undermines the rule of law.”
The court motion also accuses him of engaging in “conduct that threatens the safety of witnesses and prosecutors.”
On Tuesday (April 1), Thug is alleged to have shared a since-deleted image, pairing it with a caption claiming “Marissa Viverito is the biggest liar in the DA’s office.” According to the filing, the post “quickly went viral,” resulting in over two million views, and resulting in “direct threats to Investigator Viverito and her family.”
Thug’s attorney, Brian Steel, refutes these claims, asserting that his client has not violated any probation conditions or threatened any witnesses.
The case, built around Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) law, claimed that Thug and his alleged YSL gang had committed murders, carjackings, drug dealing and many other crimes.
