Young Thug's probation on the line: Prosecutors file motion to get rapper back in custody
Briefly

Rapper Young Thug, also known as Jeffery Lamar Williams, may return to prison as Atlanta prosecutors have filed a motion to revoke his probation. They accuse him of violating terms by allegedly revealing a witness's identity related to a gang murder case on social media. This follows Young Thug's previous guilty plea to gang-related charges in October, where he received a 40-year sentence, mostly commuted to probation. Violating his probation could lead to him serving an additional 20 years in prison.
Atlanta prosecutors are seeking to revoke Young Thug's probation following allegations that he revealed a witness's identity via social media, risking witness safety.
Prosecutors argue that Young Thug’s actions threaten the safety of witnesses and compromise legal proceedings, justifying immediate probation revocation.
