Young Thug’s nephew Fardereen Deonta Grier was reportedly arrested near Atlanta on Wednesday (July 6) for the murder of his girlfriend Destiny Fitzpatrick. According to TMZ, East Point Police were called to a residence just outside of the city where they discovered Grier crying and Fitzpatrick’s body in a pool of blood by the front door.
East Point Police Department spokesperson Allyn Glover said Grier told the police he was Young Thug’s nephew, the son of Thug’s oldest sister, information he curiously offered to officers on his own.

Grier initially told responding officers he was fending off two armed, masked intruders but then admitted he shot Fitzpatrick in the face. A neighbor told police they’d heard them fighting inside the home prior to the shooting. Grier was promptly arrested and charged with murder.
Every Update About Young Thug & Gunna's 56-Count Fulton County RICO Case
Young Thug is currently facing legal troubles of his own. In May, he, Gunna and 26 others were named in a sweeping 56-count indictment stemming from a Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization (RICO) case.
A Fulton County judge denied bond for the Young Stoner Life founder last month and he must remain behind bars until at least January 2023 when he heads to trial. Charges include conspiring to violate the the RICO Act, murder, armed robbery and participation in criminal street gang activity.
That whole family is f***** in the head.
Rap community be like ‘free young thug nephew’.
Well we know who’s getting out first
You’re seeing the natural progression in today’s youth in a microcosm. Young Thug was a product of the crackhead generation. His nephew is clearly from the meth head generation. This next decade is going to be something else.
Why would this guy mention Thug, did he think name dropping was gonna help him. What he did will give the D.A. more ammo against Thug. Dang like why would he shoot his girlfriend he should have just smacked her around a bit like a real man. OK, I’m being sarcastic with the last sentence. It’s not cool to beat your batch.
Chris Brown, Ike Turner, Mack 10, and K-Ci all did it so he was probably just following suit.
Let’s be honest. Tragedy. But this man looks super sus.
Family trait
Well is is why they made the jails for dumb ass ppl like this lock up he be just find they are having a family reunion in there
