Young Thug has been in court for quite some time at this point. As many of you know, he is currently on trial in the YSL RICO case. Overall, Thugger is being accused of a plethora of accused crimes. In fact, the prosecution has painted the artist as some sort of criminal mastermind and mafia don. Although the artist has some of the best lawyers in the world, there is no telling what could end up happening in this case. After all, RICO cases can come with extremely long prison sentences.

If you have been following along with the case, you would know that the court proceedings have not been without antics. Consequently, there have been numerous delays and recesses. People have been making a scene in the court, and it always leads to confusion. Additionally, the trial is being filmed, which then leads to some of these moments going viral. This is bad for both the defense and the prosecution, who just want to get on with the trial. Needless to say, this could all take a while.

Young Thug Perseveres

However, Young Thug seems to be keeping a very positive attitude while in court. In the video above posted by OurGenerationMusic, Thugger could be seen smiling while talking to his lawyer. Overall, it is a very small gesture. However, it does show that Thug still has some positivity despite everything that is happening. Although, it should be noted that court didn't go that smoothly yesterday. According to TheNeighborhoodTalk, calamity took place in the court as Lil Rod was taken away in handcuffs. Furthermore, there were other defendants who experienced the same fate. All sorts of chaos took place, and eventually, cameras had to be turned off.

It was yet another example of how this hasn't exactly been the smoothest trial. Either way, we're sure both sides of the equation would rather this just go on as normal. There is a lot at stake here, and there are a lot of people's lives who are at stake. Let us know what you think of all this, in the comments below.
