Young Thug Dodges Felony Drug Charge, Thanks to His Lawyers
Young Thug‘s lawyers are the real co-MVPs in his life right now.
According to TMZ, Young Thug was able to thwart a felony drug charge stemming from a raid conducted by authorities at his Sandy Springs, Georgia home in July 2015. After cops found weapons and drugs inside his residence, Thugger was charged with felony cocaine possession, felony marijuana possession and three counts of felony gun possession.
Between then and now, Thug’s lawyers managed to get the district attorney to bring it down to a felony drug charge. Then, his attorneys helped Thugger Euro-step his way around that charge by arguing that the cops carried out a search of the rapper’s premises without a proper warrant. The D.A. agreed, and dropped everything.
On Sunday, Thug posted a couple possible sub-tweets which could have been in reference to getting that last charge dropped.
Thug has been riding quite the winning streak these days. In addition to doing his thing on Rick Ross’ single “Trap Trap Trap,” we also recognized his guest spot on “Sacrifices,” off Drake’s album playlist More Life, as being the best rap verse for the month of March. Plus, you can also catch Thugger floating on “Heatstroke” by Calvin Harris featuring Ariana Grande and Pharrell. Thug really can’t lose right now, and luckily, his lawyers are here to make sure nothing stands in his way.
