Young Thug's brother Quantavious Grier, also known as Unfoonk, was arrested on May 4, 2023, after he pleaded guilty to a RICO case that has been on top of headlines. He has been charged with firearm possession by a convicted felon and unlawful for a person hired by or linked to a criminal street gang.
Atlanta Police shared a statement saying that Grier was arrested at a traffic stop at around 4 p.m. after the smell of burnt marijuana was coming out of the vehicle. While police officers searched the vehicle, they discovered a handgun. Things took a worse turn for Grier as tint was spotted on the vehicle's windows and he did not wear his seatbelt while driving.
Grier's bond was not accepted after being taken to the court but he is supposed to appear at the court again, although a specific date for the same has not been revealed until now.
The arrest is possibly going to affect the plea deal that he accepted in December last year.

Unfoonk accepted the blame of one count for violation of the RICO Act and a count of theft by receiving stolen property. According to the plea deal, he was sentenced to 12 years alongside 10 years of probation.
The probation included conditions where he was not allowed to contact Young Thug and other defendants until the case was over. He was also ordered to perform community service of 750 hours and follow a curfew from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. Restrictions regarding the possession of a gun were also imposed on him.
In an Instagram Live session, Unfoonk also stated that the deal also imposed a few rules on the words that he would be allowed to use in his music.
While he accepted his plea deal, he was accused of snitching on his brother, but he denied the rumors of snitching on Young Thug in his Instagram Story and wrote:
"Damn people really think I told on my own brother smh. Show me in the paper work I told on anybody lol, I'm not even fenna entertain any of it, peace and blessings."
According to the legal documents, Unfoonk had to testify if he is approached by the parties involved in the RICO case.
