An indictment obtained by WSB Channel 2 Action News links rapper Young Thug and T.I.'s former protege in an alleged conspiracy to kill rap artist Lil Wayne.
According to WSB's Mike Petchenik, the indictment names Young Thug, real name Jefferey Lamar Williams, 22, (right) and Jimmy Carlton Winfrey, 25, aka "Pee Wee Roscoe" (center), in an alleged plot to kill Lil Wayne as the rap mogul's tour bus left an Atlanta nightclub on April 26.
The indictment was filed in Cobb County in June. Petchenik uncovered the indictment on Wednesday -- the same day Williams was arrested for threatening to shoot a mall cop in the face during a verbal dispute at Perimeter Mall near Atlanta nine days ago.
Dunwoody Police and heavily armed members of the U.S. Marshal's office raided Williams' Sandy Springs mansion at 6 a.m. Wednesday. Police were still on the scene hours later, searching the sprawling home and luxury vehicles parked outside.
Police intervened when Williams' family members blocked a cameraman from filming.
Williams is currently being held in the DeKalb County jail awaiting a bond hearing.
Prosecutors allege Williams, Winfrey, Lil Wayne and Cash Money Records CEO and co-founder Bryan "Birdman" Williams, 46, are all members of the notorious west coast Bloods street gang.
Prosecutors cite Williams' "Halftime" music video as well as his lyrics as evidence of the plot to kill Lil Wayne.
Winfrey appears in the "Halftime" music video wielding an assault rifle. At the time, Winfrey was Williams' road manager. He was featured in T.I.'s VH1 reality TV series 'Road to Redemption'.
The indictment alleges Winfrey and his Bloods associates were in a white Chevy Camaro that pursued Wayne's tour bus onto Interstate 285 in Cobb County. Winfrey was driving the Camaro when shots were fired at the tour bus from 2 separate weapons inside the Camaro.
No one on the tour bus was injured. Winfrey is being held in the Cobb County jail without bond.
According to the indictment, Winfrey attempted to erase a photo of the Camara from his Instagram page the day after the shooting.
Winfrey's next court hearing is Friday.
Williams reportedly fell out with Wayne after he sided with Birdman in a contract dispute with Lil Wayne. Williams named his album 'Carter 6' to mock Wayne whose own album release was pushed back by Birdman.
Cell phone video taken in a Miami nightclub this past weekend allegedly shows Birdman throwing a drink on Wayne as he performed onstage.
