Prosecutors on Tuesday morning dropped witness-tampering charges against
#YNWMelly just as his trial was to begin.
Melly was accused of colluding with co-defendant
#CortlenHenry and fellow inmate Terrence Mathis to keep his ex-girlfriend from testifying in his double m-rder case. It is unclear why the charges were dropped.
The tampering trial was set to begin with jury selection on Wednesday.
Melly is charged with m-rdering his childhood friends Anthony Williams and Christopher ThomasJr. in a drive-by sh—ting in October 2018. Williams and Thomas, both aspiring rappers with the YNW collective, were known as
#YNWSakchaser and
#YNWJuvy. đź‘€
