YSL's Rico Trial Delayed Because of the Stabbing of Defendent Shannon Stillwell

It's going into the third week of the RICO trial against Young Thug and his record label, YSL. However, today's proceedings have been delayed as a result of Shannon Stills, a defendant in the trial, being stabbed over the weekend, "The Atlanta Journal-Constitiuton" reports.

While there are not many details related to the stabbing, Stillwell's stabbing has been confirmed by the Fulton County Sheriff's Office.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we've had a medical issue come up with one of our participants," Judge Ural Glanville told the jury.

Stillwell was one of 28 people charged in YSL's 2022 indictment. Of those 28, only six, including Stillwell and rapper Young Thug, are on trial.

On Friday (Dec. 8), the prosecution continued attempts to prove their case by calling on police officers to testify.

Christopher May testified about Young Thug allegedly threatening him at Perimeter Mall in Atlanta. May, who worked as a security guard, testified that he and two other security guards told a group of men, one being Young Thug, that they couldn't be in the mall on hoverboards.

Accordingn to Jozself Papp, crime and public safefy reporter for Atlanta Journal-Constituition, May testified that Young Thug told him that he would come back to the mall and "shoot you in the face." After notifying the police about the incident, May said he received threats on social media. However, he did not follow up with police after finding out who Young Thug was.

Young Thug's lawyer Brian Steel said that none of the other officers on the scene reported the alleged threat made to May.
