Young Thug fans think they’ve spotted his missing $1.7M Richard Mille on officer’s wrist in court

"Wearing the watch you stole in front of them ppl is wild," internet reacts to alleged sighting.

After years in prison, rapper Young Thug has officially returned to freedom. Following a plea deal, he walked out on Halloween with 15 years of probation ahead. 

His return comes with a message from Judge Paige Reese Whitaker, who released him, stating, “I know you’re talented, and if you choose to continue to rap, you need to try to use your influence to let kids know that is not the way to go.”

In the rapper's first appearance post-release, he reunited with Atlanta rap icon T.I., joining him and T.I.’s son Domani in the studio. T.I. shared the moment on Instagram, writing, “Yeahhhhh YKWTFGO. The Kings have Reconvened. #KingJeffrey #KingSr Guess I’m officially outta retirement For tonight.”

Meanwhile, online detectives were quick to turn their focus to a peculiar new development. 

Fans believe they may have spotted Young Thug's missing $1.7 million custom Bubba Watson Richard Mille watch, allegedly seen on the wrist of a police officer in court.

As Young Thug resumes life outside, the question of new music looms. Fans wonder what to expect, especially after hearing his lyrics scrutinized in court. 

He ended his Instagram video with T.I. saying, “Back, baby” and “No cap in my rap!” signaling his potential return to the music scene. 

However, fans are left wondering what direction his music will take now, especially after the highly publicized YSL RICO case, the longest in Atlanta’s history, brought his lyrics into the legal spotlight.
