ATLANTA — A new indictment was filed in Fulton County Superior Court last week that includes additional charges against Young Thug and four other defendants as part of a wide-ranging RICO case.
Young Thug, whose real name is Jeffery Williams, is now facing additional charges of participation in criminal street gang activity, violation of the Georgia controlled substances act, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony and possession of a machine gun and drug charges. The new charges stem from what investigators found during Williams’ arrest on the original indictment on May 9 at his home in Buckhead, authorities said.
Williams’ attorney, Brian Steel, maintains that his client is innocent and looks forward to fighting the charges in court.
