When Did Young Thug Get Locked Up? The rapper was imprisoned following his May 2022 arrest. His trial officially began in November 2023. Following a brief pause, the trial resumed in January 2024. In October 2024, Young Thug entered a plea deal to be released from prison. Was Young Thug Released? Young Thug was released from prison on October 31, 2024, after he pleaded guilty to one gang-related charge, three drug charges and two gun charges, while also entering a no contest plea deal to a separate gang-related charge and a racketeering conspiracy charge, according to multiple outlets. He also agreed to avoid the metro Atlanta area for the first 10 years of his probation period, with the exception of special occasions or urgent matters, such as weddings, funerals and/or family emergencies. Additionally, Young Thug agreed to avoid making any music with gang-related lyrics. Part of the plea deal also requires him to visit the metro Atlanta area four times per year to give a presentation about the dangers of gangs and gun usage at a school or a similar place, such as a Boys and Girls Club. During his court appearance in October 2024, the “Go Crazy” artist spoke to the judge and apologized for his actions. “I take responsibility for my crimes, for my charges,” he said, per Newsweek. “I want to say sorry to my family, my mom, my mom’s got 11 kids, I can’t say all their names, my managers, my kids.”

WATCHING a 3-day stretch of SEVERE WEATHER with beneficial rainfall for the southern Plains this weekend Saturday-Monday! This classic mega trough has a lot of backside support as it crosses the mountain West, which means it will still be amplifying as it ejects across the Great Plains. We are expecting a few days in a row with some severe weather and all hazards risk, but the rainfall is so needed across this area.

Jon Porter of AccuWeather cautions that conditions are highly favorable for a major tornado outbreak across the southern Plains, stating, “All the ingredients you need are here today.” He warns that thunderstorms could generate winds exceeding 80 mph and produce “supercell” tornadoes—powerful, sustained storms capable of causing large-scale destruction.

“These tornadoes can be particularly intense and long-lasting,” Porter explained. “They have the potential to last for 45 minutes to an hour or more, leaving paths of destruction in their wake.” Residents in the affected areas are advised to take shelter immediately upon receiving alerts and to closely monitor updates as conditions evolve.
