In the Fulton County trial against the alleged gang Young Slime Life (YSL), co-founder Trontavious Stephens testified under a plea deal, revealing the gang's origins and its connection to the national Bloods gang. He identified rapper Young Thug as an original member of the precursor group R.O.C. crew. Stephens' testimony highlighted the shift from criminal activity to a focus on music within the group. The trial will continue with Stephens' testimony following an interruption due to a juror's illness.
