Rapper YNW Melly’s double murder trial will continue, the judge ruled Tuesday morning.
That was in doubt until Broward Circuit Judge John Murphy denied defense attorney David Howard’s motion for a mistrial. Howard argued last week that the jury was now “tainted” after the state’s questioning of Felicia Holmes, the mother of Melly’s ex-girlfriend.
Howard asked the judge to strike evidence that couldn’t be verified, but Murphy told him to instead submit a motion in writing.
