Young Thug was released from prison on October 31, 2024, after accepting a plea deal related to firearm possession and gang charges, resulting in 15 years of probation. His partner, Mariah the Scientist, expressed her joy and disbelief during a concert, addressing those who doubted their relationship and his potential release. Mariah praised Thug for staying connected with their children during his incarceration, while she faced challenges of her own, including an anniversary visit that was denied due to jail system issues. The couple has been together since 2021 and has collaborated musically despite the obstacles posed by Thug's legal troubles. His release followed a lengthy RICO trial, marking a significant moment for both Thug and Mariah as they look forward to the future together. The rapper's family and supporters, including Mariah, have rallied around him, emphasizing the importance of personal relationships in his reintegration into society.
