Young Thug’s recent hospitalization for chest pains has raised concerns among fans and legal professionals alike. On May 12, his lawyers informed Judge Ural Granville that he could not proceed with pretrial hearings due to his health condition. 

The rapper’s prolonged incarceration since his arrest on RICO charges has taken a toll on his well-being, with his legal team citing exhaustion and malnutrition as contributing factors.

The Slime Season artist’s hospitalization is the latest complex YSL RICO trial timeline event. This high-profile case has seen various developments, including the recent arrest of Young Thug’s brother, Unfoonk, on gun charges and the unfortunate passing of his older sister while he remained behind bars. 

Co-defendant Lil Rod’s court appearance with marijuana hidden in the lining of his underwear added to the chaos surrounding the trial. Lil Rod’s father has passionately asserted his son’s innocence, claiming that he has been unjustly tied to a murder he did not commit, according to an exclusive interview with Infamous Sylvia. “This case has nothing to do with Rodelius Jr. That’s on my life,” he said. “They are using my son as a scapegoat!”

Young Thug’s legal team has filed a motion requesting that the rapper be granted bond as he remains incarcerated in a county jail. The motion cites health concerns, including limited access to healthy food. Thug’s attorney argues that conditions can be imposed to permit a bond to be set.

In the motion filed on April 24, Thug’s attorney Brian Steel listed several reasons his client needs to be released on bond. He claims that the rapper is “languishing” in the County Jail without access to healthy food options and has to rely on food with “zero health benefits,” like chocolate and chips. 

The motion also states that Thug has had little access to fresh air and sunlight since May 2022, outside of when he’s transported to and from the courthouse, and exercise is limited due to the small cell. Steel claims the rapper is “sleep-deprived” due to only 5 hrs of sleep each night and must wake up between  3 am-4 am for court dates.

Before filing the latest motion, there was chaos in court during Young Thug’s YSL trial. On April 19th and 20th, the Fulton County Courthouse in Atlanta, GA, was disrupted during the YSL trial jury selection. The incidents involved the arrest and charging of defendant Miles Farley’s attorney, Anastasios Manettas, Esq, and YSL Lil Rod’s arrest for marijuana possession during a strip search. Both incidents caused a delay in the trial proceedings.

Thug is also facing new allegations, with YSL Woody claiming in a recent video that the rapper is organizing a hit from behind bars. Additionally, Thug was accused of making a drug deal in court on April 7. He was allegedly caught on tape passing a note to his legal team with details of a drug transaction.
