Rapper YNW Melly’s double murder trial has proceeded for three weeks. The prosecution continues to present evidence they allege links Melly, born Jamell Demons, to the killings of his two friends, Christopher Thomas Jr., aka YNW Juvy, and Anthony Williams, aka YNW SakChaser. Melly’s defense has taken every chance they’ve gotten to criticize and minimize the state’s evidence, claiming none of it proves the rapper shot and killed the victims. The Law&Crime Network’s Jesse Weber hosts a debate on which side, prosecution or defense, is winning the case so far with Florida State Attorney Dave Aronberg and criminal defense attorney Natalie Whittingham-Burrell.

Which side do you believe is winning so far, the prosecution or YNW Melly’s defense?
Melly i fell bad for you❤ I hope you survive
Melly didn't go to his best friends funeral . Yet he go to a video shoot. Guilt on Melly's face no remorse a real monster
He did it dude
I know one thing with the second trial they have got to do something different or this is going to lead to another mistrial or a all out not guilty they have got to find a way to put Melly at the crime scene we haven't seen that yet plus come up with motive other than jealousy cause people don't brutelly kill their sandbox school friends over jealousy the only thing we've seen so far is him getting in the vehicle with them which don't mean nothing cause he could have gotten out before they made it to where they were going my heart feel sorry for the jurors that had to figure out that nonsense cause if I was a juror I would have just simply said not guilty and went home 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦
He really thinks he's going to come back home these whiteys ain't playing on foenem
When I see him laughing and smiling in court, I see two young men in their graves 50 years before their allotted time.
I said on day 1 that Melly did this because of mony. Money is what drove this smiling assasin.
This guy has no idea how bullet trajectory works lmfao. You can’t accurately expect bullet trajectory especially when the bullet is going through something and getting mangled up then making the bullet not aerodynamic it just doesn’t make sense. All the other evidence is 100x stronger
WE ALL WANNA KNOW WHY🤷🤷🤷🤷🤷🤷🤷🤷
Bortland OR courtland… Lol. That's the guy that killed those two young men!!!! He should be the one in jail right now!!!
The mistrial will give more time to the prosecution for maybe collect even more evidence and do a better job, cause the defense will still have nothing. I have a lot of respect for most of the hiphop artists, but this one clearly doesen't belong to the rap community. His benhaviour in court show how unremorseful he really is.
His mother is assessor to his stuff. I absolutely have beef with her on many levels. first and foremost, she knows about that life. She grew up knowing about that life. Why then, would you want to bring your children into that life? Secondly, she advocates for his unlawful behaviors. There is no way in heaven or earth my children could call me and ask me to bring them a gun. My question would be to that child, why? What for? What are you doing that you need a gun? She never asks this question. She never even inquired about the reasoning behind needing a weapon. My stance which is absolutely unmovable, is before we could look at this trial. Before he even got locked up the first time, when he was 17, is the factor that his mother absolutely did not care about this young man’s future one way or the other. If anything, she condones this egregious behavior. because of the fact that Jamel lacked a solid foundation in life as a young child it has now brought him to being another statistic within the African-American community. My heart is grieving for everyone involved. I pray that they all, and I’m speaking of Jamel, his mother and grandmother get their lives together. Because there is video footage of him sitting with his grandmother, smoking cannabis. My children are not my friends!✊🏽
That's one evil looking N
It doesn’t matter who we think is winning, they already know what they are going to do with Melly I don’t know why they are going to waste more money and peoples time. Melly should have already should have been let go but they want to see him get locked up for life. Now it seems like he has no chance of a fair trial.
Mistreal…is when they do not want to…give him a sentence…for the murders of two…bodies. Two jong boys…killed like…chikens. GOD IS THE ONE WHO GAVE US LIFE…NOT HUMAN. GOD HELP THE JUDGE TO MAKE A GOOD DECITION…IN JEZUS NAME…AMEN.
I have one thing to say to the prosecutors of this case prove it Because the guessing game ain't cool
It's not strong enough evidence You don't win a case based on speculation To be honest, you all have no physical proof Which is the whole reason for this trial It's sad to see those 2 guys die in vain But the facts Still remain No one knows what happened that day Everyone's praying on his downfall because of his lifestyle
It's so ironic how people go on speculation without no physical proof
Everything that man said about that shooting he was correct the shooting came from inside the car everybody could see that prolonging because of the death penalty because they say how long he has to live so now they won't life with friends like that who need friends
Hes Going to jail
Bortlen could've done it. Him and Melly switched seats at some point. The other two were drunk, high and sleepy and easily could've been aware to their pending demise
The current female attorney on here she comes off as very nice and I’m leaning on her side in this video and I’m halfway through.
