According to The New York Times, Young Thug was released on Thursday, after accepting a plea agreement in his racketeering case, resulting in a 15-year probation sentence.

As part of his 15-year probation sentence, Young Thug must serve 100 hours of community service and deliver four annual anti-gang presentations to children.
