>Jamell Demons, also known as rapper YNW Melly, was arrested in February and charged with first-degree murder in the 2018 deaths of two friends. Prosecutors believe they can show "beyond a reasonable doubt" that Demons committed the murders for financial gain.
>The State of Florida plans to seek the death penalty against rapper YNW Melly, TMZ reports and Pitchfork can confirm. In an interview with Billboard, one of Melly’s lawyers, Jason Roger Williams, said that the prosecution has “indicated... since the beginning of this case” that it would pursue the death penalty. In addition, Williams said the prosecution will present evidence at a discovery hearing this week. (Broward County records, viewed by Pitchfork, show that there is a hearing in the case scheduled for this Thursday, April 25.) Pitchfork has reached out to YNW Melly’s lawyers for comment and more information.
He didn't do anything, he was an aspiring rapper and the white government and police force framed him. I'm fucking done with this white world.
Anthony Morris
are we supposed to know who this is?
Ethan Evans
That's why you NEVER do anything in Florida. Get the fuck out if you can. Remember they wanted to put Jahseh in prison for 70+ years for allegedly beating his girl despite Geneva ADMITTING to being a lying hoe and wanting the charges dropped.
Ryan Foster
HE DINDU NUFFIN FICKIN AMERIKKKAN RACISTS!!!
Isaiah Ramirez

Justin Howard
The death penalty is based
Adrian Russell

Angel Bailey
Question: which woke rappers are going to come out and say he shouldn't go to jail or even be condemned but be given a chance to "reform?"
William Lewis
Ok but literally who What makes this merit discussion
Justin Myers
Imagine the amount of clout.
Robert Price
Giving the state the ability to murder citizens is not based.
Samuel Gray

>x is dead >melly is getting the chair >kodak is going to jail for 30+ years for rape
Everyone is claiming this was a random robbery, but it's clear what was actually happening: his killers were driven to take his life solely for the sake of clout. They wanted infamy of their own and found it in gunning down a 20-year old.
As Jah was taking his final breath, he was surrounded by kids taking video and pictures of him. Why? For clout. No one was taking his pulse, no one was calling 911, everyone was standing around with their phones out as his body was clinging to life.
The moral lesson of Jahseh's life story should be a cautionary tale of the horrors of social media and how it's fucked our society beyond belief.
So i've been reading up on it and it looks like him and his buddy killed their 2 friends and tried to stage it as a drive by, all for the image. It's not like the guy needed street cred either
Matthew Garcia
This nigga demons was out of control it seems to be
Oliver Richardson
My bad I didn’t realize it was still ongoing, what I do know is that he is crazy and that although it’s still innocent until proven guilty that lil niggas still locked up and awaiting trial so I can come to any conclusion I want
Newsome and Boatwright also match the description given by Baal-Berith: dark-skinned, skinny, and tall.
Michael Sanchez
Idk that murder was strange for sure
Logan Rivera
It was a 100% setup.
RIVA Motorsports has only one exit and it's at an intersection. X's killers most likely stalked him and texted each other to arrange the killing. X was a sitting duck.
Also, is most likely correct. Materially, they killed him for clout (the LV bag was just a ruse, plus they bragged about killing him on social media which is how they got caught). Spiritually, X had angered whatever dark entities he was working with (probably because he was going to jail and wasn't able to offer them any more sacrifices; he tried to sacrifice Ski after all) so they claimed his soul.
Easton Bennett
demons? you guys sound stupid as fuck, everyone in broward county basically knows others especially in the streets and the rap game, theyre all from the same region.
it was a setup but im pretty sure this is all from the beefs X had been in (stabbing people at the beach, etc.).
fucking demons lmfao gtfo
Henry James
FREE MELLY WE FUCK WITH YOU OUT IN THE HAMPTONS NIGGA
Jacob Thompson
You from Florida?
Ryan Collins
Nobody is will read this but i am gay
Tyler Rivera
>demons? you guys sound stupid as fuck,
Boatwright, the scumfuck who fired the shots at X, said his hand pulled the trigger seemingly out of nowhere. He claims to have "lost control" over his hand when the shots were fired.
Considering how heavily involved X was in the dark arts, there is ZERO doubt he pissed off an angry spirit who then possessed his killers to take his life.
Also, part of me thinks this case will go forever unresolved, i.e. X's killers may all be killed in prison or some shit.
Mason Adams
Are you 12
Justin White
i hope those demons pull the trigger to your head
Noah Russell
Are you from Florida?
Owen Anderson
never even fucking heard of him
Colton Hill
yeah i talk to plies at the grocery shop, he wanted jalepeno but i told him picoso is better
Hudson Sanchez
>YWN melly
Jeremiah Morgan
wow dude ur so cool, get the fuck off this board
Noah Howard
>Melly was sitting in the left of the car and shot Sakchaser and Juvy on the LEFT side of their bodies but Melly and his equally dumbass accomplice decided to stage the driveby....by shooting bullet holes on the RIGHT side of the car. he did that shit lol
Cooper Butler
Where in FL? Dade? Broward?
Zachary Garcia
Pass the cellphone to tay k melly
Andrew Jackson
You want so much respect.
Isaac Peterson
go back to Soundcloud
Samuel Murphy
Imagine "believing in rap"...
John Thomas
>Respek When respect isn't enough... respek. So much respek.
>white girls still love murder on my mind do they even know or care?
Elijah Cruz
lol get the fuck back to your kpop thread loser
Wyatt Harris
They execute less than 30 people a year on death row thanks to all the "regulations." It's basically a glorified life sentence.
Dylan Ward
I would rather not
Owen Miller
Yeah, appeals process is a bitch.
Thomas Fisher
yeah its fuckin stupid they should just take ur ass out behind the courtroom
Brandon Lee
So why the fuck does Melly get the death penalty when NONE of Jahseh's killers will get it? What's the logic behind that bullshit?
Liam Bell
the kpop thread is just an /r9k/ enclave that got kicked off their board years ago and have to live here now, they are a special case
Lucas King
the lead up to the crime and the thought process behind it matters as well as their past offenses just because they offed your woman beating retard doesnt mean they get death most murderers dont
Jah's killing was heavily planned though. No way it wasn't seriously premeditated. Plus Jah's killers all had criminal backgrounds.
Jackson Robinson
i dont care
Nathan Adams
Why does Melly deserve the death penalty but not Jah's killers?
Grayson Cruz
PWOVE IT!!!!
Dylan Edwards
i think because the state of florida has decided to charge him with it and in the case of xtensions killers they have decided not to
Anthony Barnes
But why? Give legal reasons.
Jason Butler
cause they think they can get a conviction on melly for the death penalty easily and a death penalty conviction looks good for the prosecutor and they might get promoted
Lucas Martinez
ZYVA RESPEK
Josiah Flores
with so many many rappers going to jail recently (i honestly feel like more than other generations of hip hop but i might be wrong) i cant help but to think that florida is doing this to send a message to the community that this shit isnt gonna fly anymore
or maybe im just retarded
Nicholas Smith
It's south Florida culture. Everyone in that fucking region thinks they're a clout emperor to the point where they pull all sorts of dumb shit just to get the social media likes. They have zero discipline and believe clout on social media outweighs any possible consequences for their actions.
Connor Anderson
Yeah it is
Jaxson Scott
>thinking we should pay for thugs to live in prison wrong. Death penalty is good for lost causes.
Jaxon Hughes
Because if you kill some random dude, that's one thing. You could change. If you kill friends, like Melly YMN or whoever did, it means you are really deranged.
Christopher Perez
Good call.
Daniel Butler
do we know why he did it in the first place?
Henry Clark
Clout.
Logan Torres
what does the OP mean with >Prosecutors believe they can show "beyond a reasonable doubt" that Demons committed the murders for financial gain.
Michael Thomas
"Financial gain" is also clout, idiot. Shit's all connected.
Adam Rogers
If Melly gets the death penalty would it make him a clout martyr too?
Doubt he'll get the death penalty but he's almost definitely never getting out of prison. He killed his friends because apparently they threatened his mother or something. He killed them in HIS car and then he and his friend tried to stage it as a drive-by by shooting the side of the car. Only problem was they shot the side of the car OPPOSITE to the side the guys were shot at. Then they drove the bodies to the hospital IN THE SAME CAR and told the doctors they had been shot in the drive by. This nigga is fucked.
Jack Gutierrez
why didn't this happen to Yachty or Uzi? Fuck, 21 savage even? Maybe because they didn't do anything.
