The two remaining defendants in the YSL trial, Yak Gotti and Shannon Stillwell, have been found not guilty on RICO charges, concluding a dramatic, long-running case continuing to make waves in Atlanta's hip-hop scene.
Yak Gotti, a rapper born Deamonte Kendrick, was acquitted of all charges, including a murder count for a 2015 killing, while Stillwell faced lesser charges.
Yak Gotti was stabbed in jail on December 1 and appeared in court with stitches on his forehead, expressing relief at the verdict.
The jury's decision follows a turbulent trial where six defendants faced serious charges, with several opting for plea deals, including central figure Young Thug.
