AceShowbiz - YFN Lucci stabbing incident played a part in the YSL indictment in May 2022, but it's not until now that public get to see the evidence. During the YSL RICO trial on Tuesday, November 5, the jury was shown footage of the incident and it has since been released online.
The footage was played in court during the testimony of Aaron Wolford, the retired head of Fulton County Jail's security, where Lucci was stabbed. In the newly-released video, a man believed to be Jayden Myrick, also known as YSL Tripp, is seen following Lucci up the stairs at around 7 P.M. on February 9, 2022.
The two headed to the video visitation area before they got into a physical altercation. The two men are seen struggling as they fell down the stairs. Lucci appeared to be trying to run away from Myrick, but the latter chased him before a Sheriff's deputy separated them.
The footage also shows bodycam footage of a deputy urging Myrick to "put it [seemingly the weapon] down." Lucci said in the footage, "That n***a stuck me." Myrick is also seen being tased in the video.
Myrick is one of the three inmates accused of attacking Lucci, whose real name is Rayshawn Lamar Bennett, in jail. The inmate was previously forced to undergo mental evaluations after alleging Donald Trump gave him legal advice for the YSL indictment.
Prosecutors claim that this stabbing resulted in the retaliatory murder of Shymel Drinks. Prosecutors also use the incident to support their claims that YSL members carried out criminal acts on behalf of the collective.
The beef prompted officials to house Lucci and Young Thug in separate jails in the Atlanta area. While Lucci served his time in Fulton County, Thugger served time in Cobb County jail until his release in October.
Shannon Stillwell and Deamonte Kendrick, also known as Yak Gotti, are the two remaining defendants in the YSL RICO case.
