Judge removed from long-running gang and racketeering case against rapper Young Thug and others
Judge Ural Glanville had a meeting with prosecutors and a state witness. Another judge didn't fault him for that but said recusal was necessary for public confidence.
Young Thug, a Grammy winner whose given name is Jeffery Williams, was charged two years ago in a sprawling indictment accusing him and more than two dozen others of conspiring to violate Georgia’s anti-racketeering law.
