As reported yesterday, YNW Melly was hit with a double murder charge for the suspected killing of two of his "YNW" associates. The rapper whose real name is Jamell Demons turned himself in to authorities without much resistance just hours following the issuance of an arrest warrant.
Within the timeframe of his surrender to the law, Melly took to social media where he publicly mourned the passing of his constituents: 21-year-old Anthony Williams (YNW Sakchaser) and 19-year-old Christopher Thomas Jr. (YNW Juvy). Unfortunately for YNW Melly and his suspected accomplice Cortlen Henry aka YNW Bortlen, authorities say they have "forensic evidence" linking both men to the murders.
Authorities believe YNW Melly was the triggerman in the double homicide, while YNW Bortlen rode the "drive-by" vehicle and the overall schematics. The Florida courthouse where both YNW's were arraigned initially refused them bond, on the grounds that both the prosecutor and Melly's legal team needed a bit of time to familiarize themselves with the case.
After a brief cessation, Judge Jackie Powell has ordered the suspected killers locked up without bond, for reasons that remain undisclosed the general public. Even though they have "forensic evidence" on their person, Law enforcement officials remain clueless to YNW's motives for the killing, that is: if they actually committed the crime in a premeditative fashion.
