The trial for rapper Young Thug and five other people is on pause until early next year after one of the defendants was stabbed in the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta.
Shannon Stillwell, 31, was stabbed multiple times Sunday evening during a fight with another man housed in the same part of the jail, the Fulton County Sheriff's Office said. Superior Court Chief Judge Ural Glanville sent jurors home Monday morning, telling them one of the defendants had a "medical issue" but told them to return the next morning.
On Tuesday, he told them the "medical issue still exists" and, given the time that it may take to deal with it, "I'm going to recess you for the holidays today." He had previously told the jury they would have a break starting at the end of the proceedings this Friday and continuing through the new year.
