The state of Georgia has filed a motion to revoke Young Thug’s probation, alleging that he accused the Atlanta Police Department of shooting Young Scooter and made remarks targeting Marissa Viverito.
The Fulton County District Attorney’s Office has filed a motion requesting the revocation of Young Thug’s probation, as per a legal filing submitted on Wednesday, April 3.
Young Thug, whose real name is Jeffery Williams, previously concluded a lengthy criminal trial in October 2024, during which Jeffery Williams pleaded guilty to multiple charges. The case, prosecuted under Georgia’s RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) law, alleged that Thug and the YSL gang were involved in various criminal activities, including murders, carjackings, and drug trafficking.
Following the trial, Jeffery Williams was sentenced to 40 years, with five years of prison time already served and 15 years of probation. The remaining 20 years of his sentence were set to be commuted if he successfully completed his probation.
However, the new motion, filed in Fulton County Superior Court, argues that Thug’s continued presence on probation poses a “clear and present danger to public safety and undermines the rule of law.” Prosecutors are particularly concerned with what they describe as “escalating threats and witness intimidation.”
According to Channel 2 Action News, one of the key issues in the filing is related to Fulton County Investigator Marissa Viverito, who is currently testifying in a high-profile gang murder case. The court had ordered that testifying witnesses should not be shown on television, but a social media user defied this by posting an image of Viverito online with the caption, “She doesn’t want to be shown on screen? Well, here she is.”
Jeffery Williams allegedly shared and then deleted a repost of this image on Tuesday, April 1, adding a caption stating, “Marissa Viverito is the biggest liar in the DA’s office.” The filing claims that this post quickly went viral, amassing over two million views, and led to direct threats against Viverito and her family.
Additionally, the filing alleges that after Jeffery Williams repost, the home addresses of Viverito and her parents were leaked online. One particular post reportedly included an image of Viverito’s mother’s house, accompanied by the caption, “If the hate is really real then pull up on her mama crib.” Another post allegedly surfaced later, making a direct threat to assassinate Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
The motion describes this escalation—from exposing a testifying witness to issuing a death threat against the elected District Attorney—as an “unprecedented attack on the justice system.”
