Jason Roger Williams has been retained by Jamell Maurice Demons, also known as YNW Melly, to represent him in his most recent trial. In 2012, Rogers helped rapper Boosie Badazz clear his name of all murder-related accusations by serving as his attorney. On February 13, 2019, Jamell was detained for his part in the deaths of his pals Anthony Williams, 21, and Christopher Thomas Jr., 19, who were also buddies. The two victims were found dead inside a vehicle in Miramar, Florida, in October 2018, after the murder. According to reports, both of them were shot and died as a result.
Who are YNW Melly’s lawyers?
On January 9, 2023, the 24-year-old rapper entered a plea of guilty to two charges of first-degree murder and one count of accessory after the fact. Jamell allegedly tried to rig the crime scene so it seemed to be a drive-by shooting, according to the prosecution. The trial was often postponed until it finally started on June 5, 2023. On June 2, Broward Circuit Judge John Murphy concurred with the state prosecutor’s request to allow jurors to recommend the death penalty with an 8-4 majority. If Jamell is finally found guilty, Judge Murphy lowered the standard for the death penalty to a majority verdict.
