Young Thug‘s co-defendant Jayden Myrick’s request for a mistrial in the YSL RICO case has been denied by Judge Ural Glanville at a hearing this week.
Myrick’s attorney, Gina Bernard, was seeking a mistrial for her client due to an interrogation video featuring YSL Woody cooperating with authorities leaking on social media last month.
“While said evidence may not directly implicate my client, it along with all of the publicity and courtroom incidents since the start of this trial that have not been the result of any conduct of my client, Jayden Myrick, make it impossible for him to receive a fair trial, as well as a jury that is honestly and truly fair and impartial,” Bernard wrote.
Myrick, also known as SetTrip and Jayman, faces charges of attempted murder, possession of weapon by incarcerated individual, conspiracy to violate the RICO Act and two counts of participation in criminal street gang activity, per the original indictment.
However, Judge Ural Glanville denied the request at Wednesday’s (March 1) hearing and urged sides to be more judicious when asking for a mistrial, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
