In 2019, Florida rapper YNW Melly<\/a><\/strong> was arrested in connection to the shooting deaths of Christopher Thomas Jr. and Anthony Williams the previous year. As of April 2024, Melly’s retrial was delayed as the judge and the musician’s defense team disagreed on whether some evidence was admissible at the trial. <\/p>\n

When he was taken into custody, Melly was 19 years old, and his highly-anticipated debut album had been released one month earlier. According to the prosecution, Melly murdered two friends, 19-year-old Christopher Thomas Jr. and 21-year-old Anthony Williams, who were also musicians, in 2018, and the 223’s<\/em> rapper staged the incident like a drive-by shooting.<\/p>\n

In a 2019 Instagram post, Melly said he turned himself in. ” … I love you and appreciate every single one of y\u2019all, a couple months ago I lost my two brothers by violence and now the system want to find justice,” his post read. According to the The Florida Times-Union<\/a><\/em>, 20-year-old Cortlen Henry was also charged in connection to Thomas and Williams’ deaths. Melly and Henry, who performs as YNW Bortlen, pleaded not guilty. <\/p>\n

YNW Melly’s first trial ended in a hung jury<\/h2>\n
