Young Thug's most recent hearing found itself rudely interrupted when the court's zoom call was hacked to show gay porn across multiple screens. The text, "Free Young Thug," whose real name is Jeffery Williams, was displayed on the video. Before the incident, the court session had already been delayed for hours due to technical difficulties.

The hacking took place while Young Thug's lawyer was arguing that evidence allegedly obtained during an illegal search of his client's house should be omitted from the trial. Despite Young Thug's downtrodden look during the interruption, the judge ultimately granted that request. Thugger's lawyer certainly looked a bit stressed himself.

The Atlanta rapper is on trial as part of the YSL RICO case, alleging that he and a number of other artists are involved with the YSL gang. He appeared in court the day after Gunna, a different rapper, entered an Alford plea.
Some people are alleging that the explicit video from the hack is of Young Thug himself, as a way of blackmailing him and other artists.
Thing is, they all have videos like this. This is how they keep them down and in line. You get out of line, we drop this vid, your rep is ruined. No one gets into power on accident y’all

That would not appear to be the case here, however. To see the hack from a standard zoom view, you can click this link, but viewer discretion is advised.
