ATLANTA — The trial of Atlanta rappers Young Thug and Gunna and 26 other defendants is set to start in January in Fulton County.
Prosecutors had filed a motion hoping to delay the trial until March, but Superior Court Judge Ural Glanville denied that on Thursday and set jury selection to begin Jan. 5. The fact that most defendants have not been granted bond factored into his decision, Glanville said.
“Most of these people have no bonds, that is something that weighs heavily on the court in terms of a start date for this trial,” Glanville said. “They deserve to have a right to go to trial.”
