As we previously reported, Young Thug’s attorneys argued that Judge Glanville should be removed from overseeing the case due to a meeting on June 10 that caused significant controversy during the trial. The private meeting, attended by Judge Glanville, prosecutors, and a witness without the involvement of defense attorneys, resulted in Young Thug’s attorney Brian Steel being held in contempt and sentenced to a 20-day jail term. However, the sentence was later overturned after the state Supreme Court granted him a bond.
