AceShowbiz - Young Thug's father continued to show his support for Gunna. Jeffrey Williams Sr., who has defended the "Pushin P" hitmaker amid snitching allegations against him, was spotted attending the rapper's concert in Atlanta.
At the Wednesday, June 12 gig, Jeffrey could be seen standing in the front row at Atlanta's State Farm Arena while Gunna performed his Young Thug collab, "Ski". Jeffrey also took a chance to take pictures with the musician, doing the YSL nose wipe.
Jeffrey previously spoke in defense of Gunna in September 2023. "I love Gunna," he said in an interview with Infamous Sylvia. "Let me try to help the attorney clarify that a little simpler. Gunna hasn't done anything whatsoever that can hurt us on this case. Period."
According to Jeffery, Gunna entered the guilty plea because his attorney convinced him that it was the right thing to do.
Gunna has been accused of snitching after he pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act on December 14, 2022. He took an Alford plea, meaning that he entered a guilty plea to the one charge while maintaining his innocence on that same charge as a form of self-preservation. He was sentenced to five years in prison, but it was commuted to time served.
His legal team has shut down the snitching allegations. "Gunna has never been interviewed by or cooperated with law enforcement or prosecutors in the RICO case," read a statement issued by Steve Sadow, co-lead defense council of the rap star. "Nor have his attorneys proffered information on his behalf."
"What was said at his Alford plea hearing was solely to resolve his own case," the statement added. "It cannot be used by the prosecution against Young Thug or any other defendant."
