FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — The first week of the murder trial of YNW Melly wrapped up on Thursday without conclusive evidence that he held the gun that fired the bullets that killed Anthony Williams and Christopher Thomas.
But there’s a lot of trial to go.
Prosecutors say Jamell Demons, 24, was seated in the back seat of a Jeep driven by Cortland Henry early on Oct. 26, 2018, after a recording session in Fort Lauderdale. A short time later, when Henry was driving along Miramar Parkway near Interstate 75, prosecutors say Demons opened fire and killed his two friends.
