YNW Melly’s double murder trial is currently underway, and the father of one of the alleged victims has made it clear that he is convinced of the rapper’s guilt.
The “Murder on My Mind” hitmaker and Cortlen Malik Henry (YNW Bortlen) have been accused of killing two people on October 2018: YNW Juvy (Christopher Thomas Jr., 19) and YNW Sakchaser (Anthony Williams, 21). All four were part of the Young N-gga World collective.
Juvy’s father believes that the dispute was rooted in their plans to sell the YNW brand for “marketing and licensing.” “Melly was gonna get $200,000, Sak was gonna get $200,000, Chris was gonna get $100,000,” he told Law & Crime.
He claimed Melly wanted more money than the other founding members, which is what led to the fatal altercation.
“From day one, I believed that Melly was responsible for my son’s death on October 26,” Juvy’s father said. Based on the “demeanor” and “body language” of the accused, he has no doubts that they are responsible for the murder of his son and YNW Sakchaser.
He continued: “When I finally talked to [Melly] and Cortlen on FaceTime, their response and how they reacted — they showed no remorse. They didn’t act like they was grievin,’ like they lost a best friend or nothin’ … in my opinion, they were in the best spirits. They never came to town, never came to my son’s funeral.”
To emphasize Melly’s alleged insincerity, he pointed out that “his defense attorney got him wearin’ turtle necks to hide his neck, ’casue he got ‘Jamell’ tatted on his neck — that’s Sak mom’s name. And he got Chris name and Sak name.”
“These are best friends … he couldn’t even stop and pay his condolences to his best friend’s mom,” he added. “I have no words for that guy.”
Juvy’s father has previously spoken about the murder and its ensuing trial publicly. He recently posted a video calling out those showing support for Melly.
“Man, everybody that’s saying free Melly,” he said before flashing a middle finger to the camera. “That’s to you and your mama and your daddy and everybody that look like you. And that’s me, I said it.
“Y’all are bitches, man. Boosie down there supporting Melly — he flaw as fuck for that. He don’t even know that n-gga Melly. He talking ’bout, ‘I want Melly free ’cause that n-gga bought me snacks and a magazine at the airport.’ What?”
Earlier this month it was confirmed that the State of Florida will seek the death penalty against YNW Melly if he is found guilty in the case, as long as the verdict of guilt is unanimous in the case.
Broward Circuit Judge John Murphy sided with the state prosecutors’ motion to follow a new statute that allows juries to recommend a death sentence with an eight-four vote in the penalty phase of the trial.
That smile just looks evil
I second that!
That’s that mindfuxkery kind of smile right there!
What a loser! He woulda definitely made more than that 500k eventually, maybe in the same year, the desire for that immediate monetary benefit blinded him from seeing they coulda made more money together…smh
That may be the problem. Nobody was viewing their music like that. It was mainly Melly, and that contract better pop up again in court, because if that contract was signed, it wouldn’t just be spoken from the father of the deceased.
He has the right last name Demons because he look just like a demon with that evil smile and hair do ! Who in their right mind smiles at a murder trial
Agreed looking like clowns of his situation and not someone scared.
Keith that smile and that hair he looks extra innocent.

This niqqa name Demons and he smiling in court on trial for double murder. Lock him up for life
Evil
It is easy to say what the OG’s have failed to do but S.B. did not say that had ever reached out to the OG’s for guidance.
As we OG’s use to say…”two wrongs does not make one right.”
