Young Thug‘s father has voiced his disapproval of the double standard regarding bond after disgraced former President Donald Trump was awarded the opportunity to reach an agreement with the court system but his son, was not.
On Saturday (August 26) the rapper’s father, Jeffrey Williams Sr., appeared in an Instagram post — shared by DJ Akademiks — in which he insinuated that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is playing both sides.

The post features a photo of Thug’s father, donning a “FREE YSL” t-shirt. while holding up a sign reading: “Trump & Crew got a bond, Young Thug & YSL face the exact same charges but no bond? Make justice fair!! We deserve a fair fight too, Fani.”
A sentiment that divided fans who chimed in with their belief the rapper’s discretions were far worse than that of Trump, who has recently been charged with participating in a wide-ranging illegal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
“There’s no bodies involved, big difference [skull emoji],” wrote one Instagram user.
