Young Thug and Gunna Post Bonds To Free 30 People From Atlanta Jail
Rappers Young Thug and Gunna pulled up to the Fulton County Jail in their hometown of Atlanta over the weekend and posted bonds for 30 individuals being held on minor offenses.
“This is where we are from,” Young Thug told WSB-TV. “We just woke up and went to the jail with the lawyer and you know DAs and the prosecutors, you know, the bonding companies and just got as many people as we can out.”
The newly freed individuals enjoyed a home-cooked meal after being released. They also learned that they will be featured in a brand new music video. One child was seen in a heartwarming clip as he ran up to hug his father who just came out of jail.
“You never know what somebody been through. There was people sitting out three or four years and couldn’t get out on a bond,” Gunna said. “If they did the crime, then they can do the time, then it’s all right. But it’s like you’re giving them a bond higher than what they stole.”
Two months earlier, WSB-TV highlighted the disturbing conditions at the Fulton County Jail, which was exceeding its capacity by more than 400, holding 2,900 inmates.
“This is some of the worst conditions I’ve ever seen,” councilman Michael Bond told the news station at the time.
Young Thug and Gunna didn’t disclose how much money they spent to release the individuals. But the artists said they plan to pull off a similar act of kindness again in the future.
