BREAKING NEWS! The YSL attorneys declare WAR against Judge Glanville! Background: The judge presiding over Young Thug’s lengthy racketeering trial held the musician’s attorney in contempt on Monday after being confronted about a private conversation reportedly held between the judge, prosecutors and a state witness. Brian Steel was escorted out of the courtroom after refusing to tell Judge Ural Glanville how he learned of the meeting, which he said occurred in the judge’s chambers before court began Monday. “You got some information you shouldn’t have gotten,” Glanville said before directing deputies to take Steel into custody. “You’re not supposed to have communication with a witness who’s been sworn,” Steel told the judge before asking for a mistrial. He was later allowed back into the courtroom. The witness, Kenneth Copeland, spent the weekend in jail after refusing to testify on Friday despite an immunity deal contingent upon his testimony. Copeland apparently had a change of heart on Monday and was brought to the witness stand wearing a blue, jail-issued jumpsuit. He said he heard that prosecutor Simone Hylton also reminded the witness that he could actually be held until all 26 defendants have their cases disposed of, regardless of how long that might take. “If that’s true what this is is coercion, witness intimidation, ex parte communications that we have a constitutional right to be present for,” an outraged Steel told Glanville. “I still want to know, how did you come upon this information,” Glanville asked. “Who told you?” “What I want to know is why wasn’t I there,” Steel responded. After ordering Steel removed, Glanville said he planned to continue with proceedings. “I’m not halting nothing,” he said. At that point, Young Thug’s other attorney, Keith Adams, said he did not wish to continue without his co-counsel present. “
