Young Thug’s Attorneys Seek Bond Under New Judge Whitaker.
After spending months behind bars awaiting trial, Young Thug’s attorneys have filed a motion requesting bond for their client. This motion came after two other judges had recused his case.
Judge Whitaker was appointed to Thugger’s case on July 23, 2024. There was much controversy about her appointment.
According to The Source reports, he was arrested in September last year. Some of the charges included drug possession and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
While he has maintained his innocence, he has been unable to secure his release on bail until now.
New Judge Whitaker Assigned To Case
In a surprising turn of events, a new judge, Judge Whitaker, has been assigned to Thugger’s case. This change in judicial oversight has given the rapper’s legal team renewed hope for a favorable outcome.
Judge Whitaker’s reputation for fairness and impartiality has raised expectations. So, Thugger may get a bond. Or he may have a better outcome for his trial, as stated by Atlanta News First.
Especially since this has been the state of Georgia’s longest-running trial, if Thugger’s legal team is successful, he could await trial from home. Either way, having a new judge on the case could not hurt.
Perhaps Judge Whitaker will consider the rapper’s ties to the community and lack of prior violent offenses. The legal team is working diligently to present a strong case for Thugger’s release.
We will know more about whether Thugger gets bail soon. Fans who have been watching the case are optimistic. In the meantime, Thugger remains in a fight for his freedom.
