Young Thug's father is not too happy about the conditions of his son's release from prison.
Jeffrey Williams Sr. spoke to a local Atlanta news outlet 11 Live outside the courthouse last night and admitted that while he was thankful his son finally got out, he was “scared” by his son's decision to plead guilty without a plea deal because he wanted Thug to keep fighting.
“Well, I kind of freaked out behind that,” he told reporters before saying he agreed with his son's lawyers to keep trying to fight rather than plead guilty. “Let's keep fighting, you know, let's make them continue to embarrass themselves, but by the same token, I've never tried to interfere with his decisions and I support him.”
He added, “It feels great that he's coming home, but by the same token, I still want him to fight, but that's his decision. I raised him to be the man he is. You know, I've always been in his life, from when I was little until now. And I will continue to be in his life. As an adult, he has to make his own decisions.”
Then Thugger Sr. was asked about some of the conditions of his son's release, one of which included a 10-year ban on visiting the Metro Atlanta area. “I'm totally against it, because this is where he's from. For a prosecutor to take that away from him — he's from another state — To see her take a man away from where he is, to have to go live somewhere else, that's offensive to me. I'm really offended by it.”
She wore a hat with the name of DA Fani Willis's opponent, Courtney Kramer, in the upcoming November election. “To get back to our normal life, we will have to put in more work. But the work we must do primarily for the city of Atlanta, Fulton County? We need to get rid of the poison in our system, and that's the DA's office, so vote for Courtney Cramer.”
Williams Sr. has expressed his support for his son and Guna while both have been involved in this ordeal. He came to Gunna's defense multiple times when the YSL member was accused of being mean by some of his peers and fans after an Alford plea
