The double murder trial of YNW Melly is looking bleak online for those who want to see the rapper walk away. Moreover, this is because social media clips of his behavior, including blowing kisses and his lawyer's suggestive notebook, have people thinking that it looks ridiculous. However, none of those aspects actually translate into the court of law, and on the fourth day of his trial on Thursday (June 15), he and his team actually heard some good news. Furthermore, these reports come from Law & Crime Network correspondent Bryson "Boom" Paul, who has been consistently covering this trial with frequent updates via his social media accounts.
"Judge John Murphy III denies the Prosecutor’s use of @Snapchat memories in the next witness testimony due to the presence of a firearm and cash in one of the videos," the reporter tweeted. "'Prejudicial,' he says." For those unaware, "prejudicial" means that it would be evidence that would cause an inherent bias against the defendant without actually being evidence that contributes to the matters of fact in the case. Another update held similar weight and described the reaction of the family of YNW Juvy, the deceased associate of YNW Melly who he stands accused of murdering. The state also accused him of murdering YNW SakChaser in this trial for double murder. "Juvy’s grandmother says “Damn” as Judge Murphy lll says the music video “Murder on My Mind” will not be used based on prejudice," Paul relayed via Twitter.
Positive Updates For YNW Melly's Side Of Murder Trial
Meanwhile, Juvy's mother recalled how she walked out of the courtroom when the 24-year-old accused murderer blew kisses during session. "He did it a couple of times.. that wasn’t his first time,” Leondra Phillips said, calling his displays “disrespectful. I walked out. What you praying for? You sitting there like you ain’t got no remorse. Like, every time I walk in, you smiling. This ain’t the same for that. This is sad, this case is serious."
Others have instead stood by the Gifford native's innocence, with Boosie Badazz showing up in person during proceedings. Another famous rap figure, Lil Durk, declared "Free Melly" via his Instagram page. It remains a murky case, but one that, at least for today, brightened for the rapper and his team.
