All eyes are on YNW Melly's trial for double murder, which could be the first in the state of Florida in years to result in a death penalty thanks to new state law. Moreover, streams and footage of the trial flooded social media this week as the trial began on Monday (June 12). Amid all the commotion, many wonder what the outcome of the trial will be, especially given the Gifford rapper's antics throughout. However, this also came with legal advice thrown into the ring from Bradford Cohen, attorney for Kodak Black who offered his insight into the case. From what Cohen stated, this will be a tough case, which is in contrast to what many assumed when watching footage.
"Day 2 is coming up on the YNW Melly case,” the lawyer wrote on Instagram earlier in the week. “The first few days of trial are not that interesting in regards to a story or the real meat of the case... This case is going to be very technical with phones and date etc. But again, they can’t say someone else didn’t get in the car or someone else did the shooting. I think the case has built in reasonable doubt, and I saw a lot of the discovery while I was on the case. Like I said, this will be a tough case for the prosecution."

Kodak Black's Lawyer Speaks On YNW Melly Case
Now we're at day four, and Bradford Cohen continuously commented on the trial's development on his social media if anyone is interested. Still, he's one of many voices chiming in, so there is no shortage of that. For those unaware, Cohen currently represents Kodak Black on drug-related charges. Surely his insights could evolve and shift as the trial goes on, but it's important to consider that no one but those in the courtroom will really know the nature of this case.
Regardless, as the attorney stated, the "223's" MC has a long path ahead of him when it comes to his murder case. It's unclear how long the trial will last, but its opening days have a lot of footage without a lot of case development itself. As such, those interested in its outcome will have to be patient and understand that it could take a long time for the public to understand what allegedly went down.
