A deadlocked jury has prompted a mistrial in the double murder trial of rapper YNW Melly in South Florida. He's accused of murdering two of his friends five years ago.
Jamell Demons, better known as rapper YNW Melly, is shown during his trial at the Broward County Courthouse in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on Wednesday, July 12, 2023. A deadlocked jury prompted a mistrial Saturday in the South Florida trial of rapper YNW Melly on charges that he murdered two of his friends five years ago.
Broward Circuit Judge John Murphy twice asked the jurors to keep deliberating after they said they were deadlocked, but relented after they came back a third time. Prosecutors said the shooting was part of a gang action, while defense attorneys said that claim lacks credibility because Demons and the victims were close friends.
