Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis became a high-profile name after she announced the indictments surrounding Young Thug, Gunna and other members of Young Stoner Life Records for racketeering charges.
In an interview with WSB-TV, Willis explained how since she’s taken on the case regarding YSL and its alleged operation as a street gang, she’s faced numerous threats on her life, regarding both her handling of the YSL case and the creation of a special grand jury to investigate efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.
“I’m much more cautious than I’ve ever been in my life, of paying attention to my surroundings,” Willis said, alluding to the fact she’s added extra security detail. “It’s required for me to stay alive.”
When asked about specific threats, Willis kept it brief, under knowledge one of the threats came from someone who knows where she lives.
“Basically, they’re going to murder me, that the DA is going to get got,” she said. “I’m not going to be intimidated from doing [my job] and doing it in a correct fashion and holding people accountable. We don’t believe these threats were directed by anyone in the YSL indictment. I would say that people are very sympathetic, maybe admirers of YSL and connected to them in some sense.”
Previously, 18-year-old Quartavius Mender was arrested and charged after he made threats toward Fulton County Sherrif Pat Labat and his wife on social media. Mender allegedly left death threats in the comment section of Instagram posts of Labat, his wife and Atlanta Public Schools Police Chief Ronald Applin if Thugger or Gunna weren’t released from jail.

Despite pleas from Kevin Liles and others on his behalf, Thugger was denied bond on June 2 as a judge deemed him a “flight risk” and a “danger to the community.” Prosecutors in the case allege Thug is the co-founder of YSL and is responsible for multiple murders, shootings and carjackings over the past decade. They also claim YSL promoted its activities in their music and on social media.
According to court documents, he’ll remain behind bars until January 2023.
It’s the LGBTQ community sending those threats, They don’t take it lightly when one of their own is taken
IKR, they’ve been getting pretty violent lately and now since it’s Pride Month, they’re gonna go “all out” for YoungButtPlugga, TSGUNNA and YSL. (Young Slurp Life) They feel that their lifestyle and voice, culture,hip hop society will fade away if they’re all found guilty. Hate to break it too they but being gay is one thing but being a gangsta is another. The Feds aren’t about to let that slide at all. With all the murderous things that were happening in the GayTL over the last 5 years, they gathered enough evidence to start the investigation and now with his cohorts feeling the pressure they’re going to snitch to get better deals so they can come home. They Rainbow Mafia might want to just face it, he’s gonna be in there for a while.
They’re gay tho, I thought they were use to taking all manner of things.
..you’re using Rico on people using their lyrics and record label. If you can do that then do it to the KKK? But they won’t.
Cuz the KKK don’t rap, they’re correction officers, police officers, and republicans.
KKK members are Democrats too. The majority of Black People just do not get it. Too emotional and no critical thinking.
Nice try, Commie bot. Nobody believe your lie just like your lie that the Orange Turd won the election. No go wait in your bomb shelter until Putin croaks.
Pretty sure Obama and Biden had nothing but kind words for Snator… Byrd was it? A Democrat, a former KKK grand wizard. With that said, are you retards really asking why they don’t push RICO cases on the KKK?? Lmfao. Do you even know what RICO cases are about? The Klan has never been involved in racketeering lol. It isn’t a criminal mafia that intends to make money. It’s really more so a hateful group that just hates people. That’s like asking why there aren’t RICO cases against online groups that say hateful things about people they don’t like. Learn what and how RICO cases are prosecuted. Simply being hateful doesn’t qualify as crime in a supposedly free country. You are free to hate or like whoever or whatever you want. Now, if the KKK are caught plotting attacks as an organization, then sure, prosecute with RICO. But RICO laws were introduced and passed into law in USA decades after the KKK died for the most part. The kkk isn’t what it was pre 1964 civil rights act. Kkk was huge with the democrats in the early 1900s, with many Democrat meetings and rallies in the 30s having many klan members. Learn your history fool. Republicans signed the emancipation proclamation and gave slaves their freedom. Republican congress supported and passed the 1964 civil rights act, with most of its dissent coming from Democrat congressmen. Democrats today still hate on Lincoln. They spit on his memorial. They want to take his name off of schools. What, you thought welfare programs and such were meant to HELP impoverished black people? Ha. No. Meant to keep people down, and dependent on the government. Their policies help ensure generational poverty. Bad news. Worst thing ever is to depend on the government to live.
Its crazy how people wana make threats but can’t form a better out look on situation. All this shows is the people that call themselves supporters are in fact dangerous and that image is the last u want to show these folks cause they ain’t gona never let bro out .smh people so slow . we always attacking wrong we need to work and stay out the way stop continuing this bad image of black people because we will always be looked at as negative. We need more black leaders that will lead positively not leaders that can’t get they mind off drugs,disrespect, money,robbing,and killing . stupid that’s FACTS
Parts of society is getting sicker and sicker.
I can understand the rappers, fans and Atlanta base who like to wear girl clothes and call themselves “thugs” are upset. Young thug ushered in a whole generation of mumble and feminine “Hard” rappers and Im glad this wave will be going away lol
