Federal prosecutors appear ready to paint Young Thug as a key figure in a sprawling criminal operation & they’re relying heavily on his music to do so.
The rapper, real name Jeffrey Williams, was one of 28 members or associates of the alleged Young Slime Life “criminal street gang” arrested Monday, May 9, following a 56-count grand jury indictment (fellow rapper Gunna, real name Sergio Giovanni Kitchens, was among the others arrested and charged). Williams, whom prosecutors identified as a founder of YSL, was hit with two charges — violating the RICO Act & participation in criminal street gang activity & beneath those umbrellas are a handful of serious accusations.
The indictment contains allegations that Williams was in possession of stolen weapons & that he possessed with intent to distribute methamphetamine, hydrocodone, and marijuana. Insofar as Williams was allegedly a key figure within YSL, prosecutors accused 2 associates (Christian Eppinger and Antonio Sumlin) with conspiracy to commit murder “by discussing how to obtain the permission of ’Slime,’ AKA Jeffrey Williams, to make a second attempt to murder” Atlanta rapper YFN Lucci while he was incarcerated. The indictment’s heaviest accusation against Williams dates back to 2015, when he is accused of renting a car that was “used in the commission of the murder of Donovan Thomas, Jr., a rival gang member.”
The exact nature of the evidence the government has in relation to these charges isn’t laid out in the indictment. But in scanning the document, prosecutors appeared to rely heavily on social media posts & song lyrics to paint Williams as a violent gang figure. (Williams wasn’t the only person prosecutors used this tactic on; social media photos of other alleged YSL associates holding up gang signs and/or wearing red clothing — as YSL is allegedly associated with the Bloods — were peppered throughout.)
ATLANTA (AP) — The rapper Gunna was booked into a jail in Atlanta on a racketeering charge Wednesday after he was indicted with fellow rapper Young Thug and more than two dozen other people.
An indictment filed Monday in Fulton County Superior Court accuses Gunna, whose given name is Sergio Kitchens, of violating Georgia’s anti-racketeering law. It was not immediately clear whether he had a lawyer who could comment on the charges.
The indictment alleges that Young Thug co-founded a violent street gang that committed murders, shootings and carjackings over roughly a decade and promoted its activities in songs and on social media. It includes a wide-ranging list of 181 acts that prosecutors say were committed starting in 2013 as part of the alleged racketeering conspiracy to further the gang’s interests.

OSCEOLA COUNTY, Fla. (WESH) — A woman accused of forcing her children to drink bleach, killing one of them, is expected to face murder charges in Osceola County.
Osceola deputies responded to the Poinciana Pentecostal Church parking lot on Mother's Day where they found the woman and two children in a car, unresponsive.
Sheriff Marcos Lopez said Joanne Zephir was charged with attempted murder for a separate incident with a victim in Orange County. The victim will not be identified due to Marcy's Law.
A relative told detectives that Zephir "wanted to have time with her children" before turning herself in for the Orange County incident.
Several hours later, she called a family member and said she killed her 3-year-old and the 8-year-old was also going to die. She said she also planned to kill herself.
Zephir told deputies the Orange County victim put a “voodoo spell on her and made her harm her child.”
She told deputies she made them drink bleach and also choked the 3-year-old.
“Fortunately, we were able to get there before the 8-year-old died. But not before the 3-year-old died,” Lopez said.
The sheriff’s office is waiting for the medical examiner's findings to file attempted murder and child abuse charges in the child’s death.
Mike Tyson can breathe a sigh of relief -- the boxing legend will NOT face criminal charges stemming from his airplane beatdown, TMZ Sports has learned.
The San Mateo County District Attorney said Monday morning because of "the conduct of the victim leading up to the incident, the interaction between Mr. Tyson & the victim, as well as the requests of both the victim & Mr. Tyson" no charges will be filed against the legendary fighter.
It's a big deal for Iron Mike -- because he had been facing the possibility of multiple criminal charges after he punched a man repeatedly in the face at SFO on a JetBlue plane on April 20.
Reps for Tyson had alleged the man threw a water bottle at him and annoyed him repeatedly prior to the attack. An attorney for the man, meanwhile, had argued no bottle was thrown & blamed the incident on his client being "overly excited."
Stephen Wagstaffe, the San Mateo County D.A., tells us ultimately neither Tyson nor the man wanted to go to court over it all. Wagstaffe added that they believed there were more serious cases his office should be prosecuting regardless.
"We thank San Mateo District Attorney Stephen Wagstaffe, the San Mateo County Sheriff & all law enforcement agencies involved in this investigation for their careful, diligent & professional work," said Tyson's attorneys.
Since the attack, Tyson has been seen jovial in public repeatedly -- smiling with fans, taking pictures with supporters & even smoking weed with Ric Flair & Rick Ross.

ATLANTA - A popular Atlanta rapper, who was arrested Monday in Buckhead, was among 28 people listed in an 88-page indictment filed on Sunday in Fulton County Superior Court.
Jeffery Lamar Williams, who goes by the stage name Young Thug was charged with participation in criminal street activity and conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, according to the indictment. The indictment outlines out the specific charges against Williams and his 27 associates. The court document refer to the group as the "Young Slime Life" enterprise, and stated that members "conspired to associate together and with others for the common purposes of illegally obtaining money and property through a pattern of racketeering activity and conducting and participating in the enterprise through a pattern of racketeering activity."
The indictment lists more than 180 acts that support just the first of the 56 separate charges handed down to the various members of the YSL. Among those other charges are murder, aggravated assault, firearms violations, theft, drug possession, participating in street gang activity, armed robbery, carjacking,
Right now, Williams is only charged with those two counts, but is listed in the indictment as being one of the YSL founders along with Walter Murphy and Trontavious Stephen.
Also indicted on Monday were Atlanta rapper Gunna, whose real name is Sergio Kitchens, and aspiring rapper Christian Eppinger, who was already in jail, accused of shooting an Atlanta Police officer six times in February. It was not immediately known if Gunna, who is accused of conspiracy to violate the state’s RICO act, has been arrested.
A former Alabama jail official and the murder suspect she is accused of helping escape from custody were apprehended Monday in Indiana after more than a week on the run, law enforcement officials said.
Lauderdale County Sheriff Rick Singleton of Alabama said the two fugitives were caught near Evansville, Indiana, after U.S. Marshals pursued their pickup truck. Casey White, 38, surrendered and Vicky White, 56, was taken to a hospital, the sheriff said.
“This has ended a very long and stressful and challenging week and a half. It ended the way that we knew it would. They are in custody,” Singleton said.
In Indiana, Vanderburgh County Sheriff Dave Wedding said officials had learned that their vehicle was near the sheriff’s office. As officers arrived, Casey and Vicky White fled in the vehicle and led police on a pursuit, he said. U.S. Marshals collided with them “to try to end the pursuit,” he said. Casey White was injured, not too seriously, in the ensuing crash and Vicky White then shot herself, causing “very serious” injuries, he said.
“We’re lucky that no law enforcement was injured no innocent civilians were injured. The pursuit was short in nature and we have both people in custody,” Wedding said.
The two had been the target of a nationwide manhunt since April 29 when Vicky White, the assistant director of corrections for the jail in Lauderdale County, allegedly helped engineer the escape of Casey White, who was awaiting trial in a capital murder case. Vicky White had told co-workers she was taking the inmate from the jail for a mental health evaluation at the courthouse, but the two instead fled the area.
Casey White was serving a 75-year prison sentence for attempted murder and other charges at the time of his escape.
“We got a dangerous man off the street today. He is never going to see the light of day again. That is a good thing, for not just our community. That’s a good thing for our country,” Singleton said.
A warrant was issued on May 2 for Vicky Sue White charging her with permitting or facilitating escape in the first degree.
“This escape was obviously well-planned and calculated. A lot of preparation went into this. They had plenty of resources, had cash, had vehicles,” the sheriff said.
SPRING, Texas – Harris County Precinct 4 constables said a woman confessed to killing her husband in a jealous fit of rage Saturday morning, but another woman has come forward to KPRC 2 saying that she, not the accused, is the victim’s actual wife.
Karin Tricia Stewart, 51, has been charged with murder.
The tragedy began to unfold when deputies were dispatched to a residence around 2:21 a.m. They arrived to find a man, James Hargrove, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds.
The victim was rushed to Houston Northwest Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Stewart, who is 51 years old, allegedly told investigators the victim was her husband & that she shot him after he told her he was in love with another woman.
Stewart was taken into custody & booked into the Harris County Jail. Her bond has been set at $75,000.
On Monday, during Stewart’s court appearance, a woman who identified herself as Sandra Hargrove told KPRC 2 that she is the victim’s real wife, not Stewart. Hargrove said in an interview that she received a call from her stepson, telling her that her husband had been shot to death.
Hargrove said she came to Stewart’s first court appearance to find out what happened to her husband.
Hargrove said she & the victim have been legally married since 2009 and recently separated in November, but still were in contact every other day. She said she was not aware of any relationship he had with Stewart or any other woman.
Hargrove said she is shocked at what happened, adding that, from her knowledge, Stewart was only his caregiver. She said that her husband had recently recovered after being in the hospital with COVID-19 for several months.
“He’s still my husband,” Hargrove said tearfully. “I mean, we have grandkids, we have kids, we have nieces & nephews. That’s still my husband.”
She said she and her family want justice.
“Even when we separated -- we didn’t cause he was my best friend,” Hargrove said.
Former Michigan State star Adreian Payne was shot & killed in Orlando, Florida, early Monday morning, the Orange County Sheriff's Office said.
He was transported to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Payne, who was the 15th pick by the Atlanta Hawks in the 2014 NBA draft, was 31.
A man named Lawrence Dority has been arrested for the shooting on a first-degree murder warrant.
Payne was a member of the All-Big Ten second team in 2 of his 4 seasons (2013, 2014) with Tom Izzo's squad. He averaged 16.4 points per game and 7.3 rebounds per game for the Spartans & led the team to the Elite Eight in the 2013-14 season.
Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green, who was Payne's teammate for two seasons at Michigan State, tweeted broken heart emojis.
The 6-foot-10 standout played 4 seasons in the NBA with multiple teams. In 2018, he was waived by the Orlando Magic after he was named in a report that stated he had been involved in an alleged sexual assault at Michigan State in 2010. No charges were filed in that case.
Payne never played in the NBA again but spent the last few years of his career overseas.
During his time at Michigan State, Payne befriended an 8-year-old girl with cancer named Lacey Holsworth, who became an inspiration for him and the team. Holsworth helped the team cut down the nets when it won the Big Ten tournament in 2014. Weeks later, Holsworth died.
In September, Payne tweeted that he was taking a break from basketball because his 4-year-old son Amari had to undergo a brain procedure. He said basketball was not as important as his family.
YG is off the hook for an alleged robbery in Sin City ... his criminal case was just dismissed on the morning of jury selection.
Sources close to the rapper tell TMZ ... YG settled out of court with the alleged robbery victim, and the guy was no longer interested in cooperating with prosecutors in the criminal case.
TMZ broke the story ... YG was facing a felony robbery charge for allegedly yanking a dude's chain off his neck in a 2018 altercation at the Cosmopolitan Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, before making off with the diamond-laced pendant.
We're told YG maintained he never stole the chain from the man, though he admitted the bling snapped off when the two were in a fight.
YG’s lawyer, Joe Tacopina, tells TMZ … "Justice was served expeditiously, we would've had the same result if the case went to trial."
It's not the first time something like this has happened ... as we first told you back in January, prosecutors in Los Angeles declined to file charges against him because there wasn't enough evidence to link him to another alleged robbery.
Rapper Yung Joc spent a morning in jail after was arrested on Thursday (May 5).
According to The Jasmine Brand, the artist born Jasiel Amon Robinson, was pulled over for speeding when police soon discovered that he was driving on a suspended license. The license suspension was the result of an active arrest warrant out on the rapper.
He was taken into custody around 3:00 A.M. before posting a $1,300 bond with $45.00 in fees at 5:03 A.M., after being booked at the Gwinnett County Jail in Lawrenceville, Georgia, inmate records show.
While the reason behind the arrest warrant was not officially reported, The Jasmine Brand reports that the former Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta star was booked and charged with “abandonment of a dependent child.”
The “It’s Goin’ Down” rapper has eight children with four different women.
This isn’t the first time that he has gotten into trouble regarding one of his children. In related news, he and his oldest son Amoni Robinson, got into an argument while filming an episode of Love & Hip Hop in 2021.
HotNewHipHop reports that the heated exchange was a result from one of Amoni’s friends getting Joc’s nightclub, The Venue, shutdown in 2019.
Elon Musk thinks the Russian government is out to get him -- maybe kill him -- and he's exposing the threat he received that supports his theory.
Elon just tweeted, "If I die under mysterious circumstances, it's been nice knowin ya."
As for what prompted the tweet, a guy named Dmitry Rogozin, Chief of Russia's Space Agency, sent a statement to Russian media accusing Elon of assisting Ukraine in Russia's brutal war against the country.
Rogozin accused Elon of being "involved in supplying the fascist forces in Ukraine with military communication equipment."
And then, the ominous warning ... “And for this, Elon, you will be held accountable like an adult – no matter how much you’ll play the fool.”
As for linking Rogozin's statement to Elon's tweet, it's pretty obvious ... Elon tweeted 6 minutes after Rogozin released his statement.
Elon's SpaceX Starlink terminals are now being used by Ukrainian forces to keep the Internet and therefore communications strong as Russia tries to disable it. It's a critical link in fighting the war.
Rogozin went on ... “From the testimony of the captured commander of the 35th Marine Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Colonel Dmitry Kormyankov, it turns out that the internet terminals of Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite company were delivered to the militants of the Nazi Azov Battalion and the Ukrainian Marines in Mariupol by military helicopters.”
Musk's mom, Maye, was shaken by Elon's tweet, responding, "That's not funny."
