Young Thug’s Trial Is the Longest in Georgia History. Here’s Where the Case Stands

Another judge overseeing the racketeering case against rapper Young Thug has been recused from the case, extending the longest criminal trial in Georgia’s history. 

On Monday, Judge Ural Glanville was recused from the case after lawyers representing the Young Thug, whose real name is Jeffrey Williams, filed a complaint relating to alleged “improper meetings” between Glanville, two prosecutors, and Kenneth Copeland, a witness in the case. Glanville presided over the case for 18 months.
