In a surprising turn of events, the judge presiding over rapper Young Thug's trial was ordered off the case due to a meeting with prosecutors and a state witness that excluded the defense team. Judge Rachel Krause removed Fulton County Chief Judge Ural Glanville from the case, replacing him with Judge Shukura Ingram. Despite finding nothing wrong with Glanville's meeting, Krause believed the public's trust in the judicial system would be preserved by his recusal. The removal is the latest delay in Georgia's longest criminal trial, where Glanville previously made a groundbreaking ruling allowing rap lyrics as evidence. Young Thug's attorney, Brian Steel, pushed for Glanville's disqualification, leading to a contempt order and subsequent legal battles. Steel remains determined to secure a fair trial for Young Thug amidst allegations of judicial misconduct. With the case at a standstill, the future of the trial remains uncertain.
