"You are not to concern yourself with this change," Whitaker told the jury.
Opening statements finally began in November 2023, after several defendants had already taken plea deals while others chose to be tried separately from Young Thug.
She denied the various mistrial motions and a new request for Young Thug to be released on bond.
Young Thug first gained mainstream success with his 2014 drug anthem “Stoner” and has worked with artists such as Travis Scott, Post Malone, Meek Mill and Drake.
If found guilty, Young Thug and his co-defendants faced prison sentences of five to 20 years on the various charges.
