Young Thug‘s YSL RICO trial has been put on hold for the time being while a separate defendant is tried in another murder case.
According to Law&Crime Network‘s Cathy Russon, any YSL-related hearings or jury selections will be delayed until August 31 due to defendant Cordarius Dorsey’s murder trial.

Although, she did confirm that Thugger was in court on Wednesday (August 23) with an accompanying video. Thug is seen walking into the courtroom in a white sweater and chatting with some of the personnel before taking a seat.
“No more #YSL hearings/jury selection until Aug. 31. Defendant Cordarius Dorsey is currently on trial for murder in an unrelated case in front of another judge,” Russon wrote to Twitter. “Therefore, no more activities will happen until that case has concluded.”
While Young Thug has remained in jail since being arrested in May 2022 and denied bond four times, he’s still optimistic when it comes to his chances of ultimately regaining his freedom.
A text conversation between Thug’s nephew and the YSL honcho was shared earlier this week. While Young Thug’s nephew misses having the guidance of his uncle, Thugger assured B Slime he’d be home soon.

“LY2 Peter u good,” Thug asked.
“Yes, Unc I really Miss You Brah AINT Nan Like When U Hea I Miss having Fun I miss Listening To Everything U Tell Me I Miss Waking Up Knowing we Together .. I’m Continuing To Record n Do Watt I Gotta Do Just Need You Hea,” B Slime replied.
The So Much Fun rapper then confidently stated they’d be reunited in the future: “Im otw jack thats ongod.”
The trial is still moving at a snail’s pace with the jury selection process ongoing with not even one seat filled yet. Whenever the trial does kick off, it’s expected to last between six to nine months so Thug’s fate won’t be decided until well into 2024.
Young Thug celebrated his 32nd birthday from behind bars and, despite the snitching allegations and distancing himself from YSL, Gunna joined in on wishing his mentor a happy birthday earlier this month.
