Attorney For YSL Defendant Lil Rod Denies Client Was Offered Deal To Testify Against Young Thug Despite Father’s Claims

ATLANTA- An attorney for YSL defendant Lil Rod is denying that her client was offered a plea deal in which he would’ve have to testify against Young Thug.

Angela D’Williams, who represents Lil Rod, one out of almost three dozen co-defendants in the sweeping YSL RICO case against rapper Young Thug said prosecutors never offered her client a plea deal in exchange for his testimony against Thugga, despite the rumors, reports Channel 2 Action News.

In a text message that was sent to Channel 2’s Michael Seiden, D’Williams issued a statement on behalf of her client, whose real name is Rodaluis Ryan.

“This is a false statement. Had any offer been given to my client, the state would’ve went through me since Mr. Ryan is represented by counsel,” she texted.

The statement comes after Lil Rod’s father was seen on video Monday saying “Miss Fani Willis went down to that jail and told my son (Lil Rod) if he ever! Listen to what I say! I ain’t telling you what I heard! I’m telling you what I know! If he say (Young) Thug gave him $10,000 to help that boy, miss Willis let you out of jail,” he said.

Lil Rod is currently serving a life sentence in prison for the 2019 murder of Jamari Holmes, is facing one count of conspiracy to violate RICO.
