A second judge in two days has recused themselves from the high-profile YSL racketeering trial featuring rapper Young Thug. The judge, Shakura L. Ingram, recused herself Wednesday because of a personal relationship with a courthouse deputy who could be called as a witness in the trial. The deputy was arrested in 2023 for allegedly smuggling contraband to YSL defendant Christian Eppinger. Ingram was named Monday as the replacement to the original judge in the case, Ural Glanville, who was recused by a superior court after having a “secret” meeting with the prosecution’s star witness that didn’t include the defense. It is unclear how the recusal will affect the longest-running criminal trial in Georgia history, but according to Billboard, will likely delay the case again, while demands for a mistrial are also likely.Read it at Rolling StoneRead more at The Daily Beast.

The longest-running criminal trial in Georgia history is poised to become a lot longer — or, if the defense has its way, derailed entirely. In the latest disruption that has placed the criminal racketeering case against rapper Young Thug on hold indefinitely, a Fulton County Superior Court judge must decide whether the trial judge should recuse himself — a process that legal experts say would include an evidentiary hearing and allow up to 90 days for a ruling.

Young Thug's criminal trial is the longest in Georgia history. The saga may be far from over.
