This man is unbelievably strong. Lost 2 children and still holding it together. Wow. 🙏
He lost one to Melly and his daughter just hasn't talked to him that's why she said so you lost 2
@@glocksp80smd he wasn't found guilty of any murder
@@autriajones-hurst9853he’s about to now 😂
I believe in the father's instinct. Also after the murders his behaviour was really off. My condolences to family and friends, may they rest in peace.
Amen
Prayers to the Families 🙏🏽 Praying and Justice 🙏🏽
Not true. My son died and I didn't want to attend his funeral and crying wasn't done in front of anyone
I find myself being a loner I have never met so many backstabbing people in my life so-called friends they say your best friend is your worst enemy and that's a true statement
same.
Same here - helped so many people in my life to be stabbed in the back - so stay on my own now trust no one
Same here, I'm not only a loner by choice but single by choice also lol. You cannot trust anyone.
In some cases
💯
For the people who want Melly free, why? Dude is a legitimate psychopath , he’s insane to kill two people he grew up with
There is no actual real proof he did it. It’s all circumstantial!
@@kenneceshakiavon7419 Even in that, look at the dudes mannerisms in court , in such a dire situation like that who would be laughing and making all the unusual gestures he’s been making .
@@kenneceshakiavon7419 but that circumstantial evidence is overwhelming
Would you kill someone with 5 million in the bank smh plus imagine someone trying to put there hands in ur pocket
@@kenneceshakiavon7419 he wrote a song literally telling you he fantasies about doing it… then he did it.. are you that smooth brained
Not showing up to your best friend’s funeral is so messed up smh
That wasn't his bestfriend then smh I don't know what to think
Guilty conscience...
We all grieve differently. So not going to a funeral doesn't prove guilt, although it does make me think of Juice when 2pac went to his friends funeral knowing he killed him. He even hugged his mother which was a cold piece. RIP to them boys tho
@@Jeremyfortner-xd8vxGrieve differently would make a tiny bit of sense if he wasn't on IG live pumping music through the city and doing video shoots. Melly is a coward who was scared to go because of the necessary paranoia of him snaking his so called best friend
@@Jeremyfortner-xd8vx People do grieve differently but it was extremely odd to take all the pictures down of them together.
I feel profoundly sorry for this Father. He knows Melly is guilty. I didn’t know that Melly missed both of the murdered boys’ funeral. He’ll get his Justice. It’s just going to take a little more time, but it will arrive.
I feel for this dad. ❤ I hope there’s some justice for his son.
My heart goes out to this father. Here again we have a story of young lives senselessly lost due to the sick mentality of “the industry.”
Exactly. This industry is not worth it!
U gang gang or hang with gang gang you better be ready the same energy as you join a ghetto life style
All of these young fools need to look at who makes the most money off the industry and how they don't lost anybody to it.
dont blame the industry. blame the murderer. Melly. May he rot in prison for the rest of his life
Noticed the video "murder on my mind" is set up like a ritual.
They pushed the funeral back and he still didn’t show up for his BESTFRIEND??? That’s crazy 😢
What a great father. Very well spoken and words that are impactful.
he raised a criminal, he have a big share on that as well.
horrible father . prob was very soft on him.
Init
@@grapplerguy2007 because he died he was a horrible father ?
He's not well spoken 😆
This man is a great father. Im sorry that he and his family has to go through this.
No Parent should ever have to bury a child. Especially in that manner. Condolences to the family of the victims. 🙏🏾
Yesssir
They was all banging
Sad situation all around, hope he finds peace.
You live by the sword, you die by the sword.
it is sad but to be honest i believe ynw melly is innocent i believe ynw melly friend who is also out maybe did the crime or there was an actual driveby shooting that happend but i truly think ynw melly friend did the shooting and ynw melly know he did it but he just won’t snitch on him. because i know if i was in the same situation I’ll say and do the same thing.
People need to see this
Yesssss ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️💔🙏🏾
never thought of bortlen ? he had gun powder
He’s innocent
This proves nothing
@@rdj3513 keep forcing yourself to believe melly’s innocent
I feel bad for pops, but you gotta understand what these boys doing you don’t know it all. It’s upstanding for the parent to say their child never did anything and etc. unless your a dad in the streets too, he will never know who his son was outside of that house.
Right like where’s the part where they were antagonizing each others girlfriends
@@Dyst0piaa7 💯 he just feels as a parent should because he lost his son, and I innerstand that. It’s just those parents be the main ones like my son was this and that. But you truly don’t know your kids once they aren’t around you.
I feel what you saying but Ion see what they could have done so bad to die
I feel what you saying but Ion see what they could have done so bad to deserve to die
Juvie was the most liked and respected within the group, the dad knows his son wasn't innocent, I think he means he had never did nothing when it comes to his friends within his gang. Makes sense considering most split from ynw and sided with Juvie, they even tried to kill Bortlen and his dad
You have People out here who stand with you Sir ! 🙏🙏🙏For Justice , peace and comfort ! God be with you ! RIP! Chris !
“So it sounds like you lost 2 children” LADY 😭😭
😂😂😂
FR LOL
😂😂😂🤦🏽♀️
What does that mean?
Imagin having a dad in your life and you choose to leave and not talk to him after your brother is killed. All the girls wishing they had a father to live with smh.
Very sorry for your loss Sir , RIP to both of them !
Money is the root of all evil .
It's only as evil as the person, if you have good morals and a good soul then the money won't get you.
Facts you're very right
The love of money is the root of all evil. Which is consistent with the person that said “it’s only as evil as the person”. One of the most misquoted texts from the Bible of all time. Indeed it is the love of money and many men have made sacrifices to idol of money. We all worship something.
Sad! Prayers for this family!
It's very commendable that Juvy's father stayed composed during the wait until trial, with Melly's family in same community and didn't seek street justice. Great example of a father 💯💪🏽
For sure, as a father myself it was hard to not feel for the man losing his son and then his daughter basically taking Melly's side. Brutal.
Great example of he know what's going on
He's smart so he wouldn't try to hurt anyone unless it was Melly or Bortlen, he obviously doesn't have to considering Juvies boy tried to kill Bortlen but only wounded him and his dad I think
I agree with Juvy’s dad .. that industry wicked …
AMEN!
bro he said sumthin bout him
covering up 1 dere mamas name on his neck but got both of them on his face he juh chattin
@@nlo7even why would he get the names of someone he was going to kill tattooed on him
@@Lucas99g36maybe he got the tattoos and then later decided to kill??
its not the "industry"...people use the "industry" as a front. music is just their DAY job.
The fact that he lost his son and his daughter. Imagine having a daughter who Is sisters with your son and his killer. And she supports the killer because she gets money. Heart breaking.
He hasn't been proving to be a killer though. This is crazy smh.
It sorta hits me hard that juvy was related to bortlen (cortlen Henry) through a sister he shares with bortlen !! I feel like there’s a real motive in this case and nothing points to melly killing then but pointing to a family dispute over money with bortlen and juvy . Some family members kill each other be careful out there you’ll never expect it coming why juvy was comfortable before his death 😢
@@LuhNoShowe need you on Melly’s defense team. That’s a good point
why would he risk going to the funeral if yall all think he killed him and was probably going to question him to death?
Ong and he probably did go and watched from a far or went after they left
My son was killed, so I know exactly what he is feeling...but the betrayal from Melly to his daugther is horrible! And SaKchaser was the person he had issues with. So why kill Juivy, he seemed like the good one out the group! This broke my heart!
God bless this man. I could write 4 paragraphs on how highly I regard this guy after that interview. Also the interviewer was great.
So sorry for your loss may God comfort and give a peace that surpasses all understanding to you, his mother, and your family as well as bring justice in revealing the truth. In Jesus Name. As well as to the family of the other young man.
I have a brother who do not go to any funerals after seeing my grandma in a casket back in 1996. Our 34 year old brother died in 2020, and my brother didn't go, 4 cousins, 2 aunts, my brother didn't go or show up at all to any of them. Funerals are to heartbreaking for many. So I understand that part. Im not going to judge based off of my feelings because I don't know if Melly is guilty or innocent. But God do, and may He reveal the truth. I do pray that if he is innocent, or guilty that God pours His love on him, and brings Him closer to God that he may obtain salvation. In Jesus Name.
I pray also that God strengthens and takes care of his mother and give her a peace within her heart through all of this. None of this is easy as a parent on both sides.
all melly talks abt how god saved him and always saying keep god in ur life
Condolences to this man and his family, rest in peace to Chris!
Prayers to the family
This was a good interview. Sincere and respectful. Now after hearing the father I have no doubt that Melly did it. The call after his sons death, the lack of remorse, the nonchalant attitude speaks volumes. Maybe more volumes then the facts itself. No real person innocent and also grieving a loss would have the ability to smile and giggle in a double murder trial of his best friends, while facing the death penalty for it. No one, except for a true a sociopath could!
He's getting protection from the rap industry that's why he has the best lawyers. The industry needs him back to keep being a dark influence in our youth.
Facts. I listen to old school r and b when im with my kids. tyat music is real music and expresses a real feeling which is real love. All modern entertainment us putting demon spirits on our you. Im making sure my children are different.
Not the industry directly lmao, the money he made from music is paying for the lawyers. The "industry" is not an overarching entity
That's theirs plans they take advantage on those youngsters who grew without fathers or with single mothers or dysfonctionnal family from poor neigbourhood and enrolling in gangs like they are family.what a shame those youngs dude are supposed to be the future but end up dead at youngs ages.
The violence in America is crazy.
It's very rare in France to get on so much violence but we can't buy guns like you do in América so that's why,I guess!
This is heartbreaking. I feel awful for this father.
I'm not people are to snake now day dem old heads are so delusional 😅😅😅
😂😂😂😂😂
@@duncanpenderhughes8865 Wtf how is that funny?
Prayers to all and especially this Father. May justice prevail.
🙏🏾
Christopher Thomas Sr, how heart breaking and sad.
Blessings from UK 🙏
This is why I don’t have friends! Friendships come and go!
If I was the dad and they found Melly not guilty, I would be waiting for Melly as soon as they let him out the jailhouse and crashin tf out for mines…but that’s just me tho 🤷🏽
Facts
As you should because on my momma I’d do the same!!
What does crashing solve ? Just another lost life to prison what good are you to anybody in a cell for life 🤔
@@allpraisewebb1142frl
Then your kids grow up with no siblings and no dad! Genius move my bradda!
So I’m trying to figure out why he didn’t attend his best friend’s funeral? . And also the other dude in question CHANGED his clothes before going to the hospital. Why you need to change your clothes? ALSO he did not get a single wound, scratch , nothing on his body , plus Melly was no where to be found at the time of the murder because someone picked him up?? This case is so bizarre
it is, either one or both of them with holding informal them boys not telling something or afraid to tell
@@shegimmienerd provavelmente, com medo de contar a verdade.
Melly was there his cell phone pin pointed him there.
He gone beat the case
so he gunna kill his best friends for 200k to spend millions in legal fees make it make sense smh
I’m with you Sir .. and so sorry for your loss Sir .. and your family ! Day one . I have never heard of him so I watched old interviews he made , him in Tik tok .. his actions the way he acts talks .. he seems to be really mentally unstable .. His talking of At night the other person comes out ! The murderer comes out ! The bad in him. Look at him even in court . He is definitely not a stable person ! No excuse at all! Just really bad side ! Again I’m so sorry ! This boy is dangerous ! 100%
melly not even showing up to the funeral is bad
He deserves everything he gets. As a mother I stand with this father! Rip little Chris 🙏
He might get not guilty
Lord I pray the truth comes out. I wonder what really happened
AMEN 🙏❤️
The man just told u what happened 🤷🏾♂️
@@danielsmith7386 judge not
My deepest condolences to both deceased families, Bortlen & Melly are responsible for the demise of Sakchaser & Juvy
You have no proof Dumas
"Allegedly"
Bro I’m tired of y’all saying he killed them I literally think he’s innocent u can’t expect someone to cry all the time
@@487racksIf there was “too much evidence against him” why isn’t he sentenced?
@@forreallium_music17lol, really? Because in a polite society it must first be heard to determine the sentence.
This family deserves justice
I FEEL THE DAD PAIN HE LOST A GREAT SON
no he lost a gang member son. don’t try to make him seem all innocent, he was an active blood either way of melly killed him or not
he raised a criminal, he have a big share on that as well.
@@cmaekkk 👎
Yes great son
@@fred89pjyall judging the man like as if he made him that way. Once a young adult gets that mindset of why they want to be and its the wrong path you can’t convince them of nothing else their mind is put mind to it. Cant always blame the parents
This man is speaking the truth. They were founding members of YNW and if you love them like you say, they deserve a cut. Melly was hot, this is America. There is enough money for everyone. You DONT SNAKE YOUR DAY 1'S. PERIOD. These kids know NOTHING about LOYALTY. 💯
Amen. "Old testimony" 😢
This is a strong man and a wonderful father, And I will keep you in my prayers! We all know melly did it and it's b.s to find out it's over money, All these young men would have got a nice little pay day, but the greed got to them. The young man or phony and in the videos that act like they have money when reality they are broke And are so desperate that they would kill their so-called best friends! They're not going to the funeral is bogus, and it definitely shows that they are guilty of this crime!
Him having tattoos of the two victims just never sat right with me, seeing that interview where he was asked about it always gives me chills.
It’s very weird tbh
Media has exposed how rampant sociopathy truly is in our society.
he got the tattoos while they was alive , theres even a interview with them all there and was asked about it
@@meetdamaka yep he got them a couple months before they were dead it almost like he already had the plan in motion he was doing it right in front of our faces we thought nothing of it at first
@@alien-hs1znI was thinking the same thing
I hope he see’s and knows how many people are on his side in this and are not calling for Melly to be freed. Money is truly the root of evil and I believe this case will shed light on that. “All that is done in the dark will soon come to the light.”
@@Young_Dab that’s literally what the trial is for.
Free that boy melly
And I hope u know a lot of people want ynw melly free
@@geeked_ed I don’t care lmao no disrespect but we’re all allowed to have our own opinions so good for those folks - they don’t know how ballistics works.
@@cassi94 and you do ?
this really changed my whole view of everything, hope pops gets his justice
You believe everything you hear? The other person can't tell you why it was done because that's admittance. What would you say if he gets put to death, then you find out they really did try to extort him, picked on him, tried to mess with his girl and threatened his mom?
The way this father describes everything points to Guilty
The Father is a very strong Brother stay strong Bro.
I feel sorry for every person in this case tbh.. I was a fan and saw the love they had for each other.. Nothing here makes sense
Greed and jealousy so he killed them plain and simple
Peace to you good father. Your son is with you and knows your love
"An eye for an eye"!!! sucks to say but on this situation seems about right.
Out of all the theories I've heard this has got to be the most likely of all the theories
Years ago I heard his two friends he allegedly killed was gonna snake him out like they did to x but he got them first what why was sitting in the back seat but the story keeps changing
I get he's mad af put he shouldn't act like his son was a bigger artist then melly
Insane. Poor father man. Hope the best to him in his coming future.
SINCEREST CONDOLENCES to the family and loved ones
He not showing any remorse in court either 😡
His not showing sadness is a lack of empathy, but showing remorse would be an implicit admission of guilt.
Because he’s innocent
@@Young_Dabgo see pictures of those loved ones dead filled with bullet holes and see if your emotions kick in
Even Bishop went to Raheem’s funeral smh
Exactly nd bishop shot him cold blood dead nd took his money
Money will motivate the closest people near you to betray you.
So what big artist kills a no name artist that he's trying to put on
Has any of this been brought up during the trial?
Its such a shame. They were so young.
My deepest condolences
This hurt my soul to watch I pray he gets justice ❤
😂😂😂
Stay strong 💪🏽 Bro God has your back
I want to be clear I lost a lot of people my life I lost my mom to bullet to her head. I lost my brother to overdose. I lost my dad to be shot to death and the more people pass away around me my emotions to conjure up feeling sad or angry. I just can’t do that no more some people are just built different because the only way to be strong is sometimes not feeling at all
I agree. I feel for the grieving father. But at the end of the day, he was not there. Nothing he said proves Melly is guilty.
Also sorry about your losses brother. Keep going you got this!
Sorrry about your loss
@@richardbat2847 thank you !!
@@IamKirkoBangz Thank you, I appreciate that !!!!!!
Wow. His own daughter, her brother.
Family is messed up like that though.
My deepest condolences.
This man has more then 500k in jewelry
Big respect from England 🏴 too this Farther , I hope you see justice for your sons .
have you ever listen to your son lyrics? one of his songs is like this : you momma gonna cry tissue after tissue. It is all fun and games when he preaches it but when it happens to him what he was preaching he was a angel that deserved better? this parents are delusional. you failed raising your kid
I never believe the narrative before a court case. Remember folks you're innocent until proven guilty
A “theory” doesnt work in court.
exactly , everyone so quick to blame and come up with their own theories. just sit back and watch the trial.
Wheres the paperwork??? Wheres the paper trail? Why hasnt any prosecuters found any emails validating or witnesses ???
So sad. May this trial turn out with a conviction
Where is the real evidence?
@@Xydorfthe circumstacial evidence is overwhelming. It points to Melly , and Bortlen . Why did he wait a hour before he took them to the hospital ? Why did he cuange his clothes? Why did Mellys phone ping at the scene of the crime at the same time of the murders ?
Must have Daniel Cruz attorney's the way there laughing
I’m so sorry for his loss
My heart goes out to this bereaved dad. His son looks so much like him. 🙏♥️🙏
sorry for your loss
🤔The dad is lying 😂he was on live threatening anyone that was at that studio that they bet not come to the funeral. And Melly went to one of the funerals I watched the live on that day. I know he lost a son 😢even when Melly gave the moms the money he was mad he doesn’t get a piece and his own daughter exposed his butt he up here lying.
If it was a drive by from the right side of the car , why where the shots in the left side backseat and blood on the inside of the passenger side windows ? Why was there a bullet shell in the back seat of the passenger side seat ? Why did Bortlen wait a hour before he took them to the hospital ? Why did he change his clothes ? Why did Melly get out of the car at 3 in the morning and get into the other car ? Why did Mellys phone ping at the same location and the same time of the crime scene ?
U don't know these people! Weird asf
So some random shooters hate you enough to fire into the suv.
1. Melly is the target and don’t get hit at all 😮
2. Melly don’t go to either funeral 😢
3. No shell casings outside the vehicle 😂
Melly Guilty af.
Pops felt so deep😭💔 Tf the family deserves justice 💯
Dad seems like a good guy.
RIP. Feel terrible for pops.
Thanks Dave
Exactly no remorse no tears
This is all the motive you need but it’s hard to prove in a court.
I remember I went to my friend funeral in Chicago and this lady got on the stand and said the killers could be here rite now ⚠️👀💯 On Sneaky 👤
That's crazy his daughter siding with melly wow hope he gets justice for his son and sak chaser
@@Young_Dabwhat reason would he not got to the hospital with his friends. What reason would the police assume he was the shooter. It had to be a reason. The crime scene was adding up.
melly is guilty its obvious to see but there is a good chance i think he gets found not guilty do to lack of evidence
Can't wait to hear Melly's next single, "I got away with Murder." Lol.
this rii here 😂😂
He won’t get away, why do you think he been rotting for 5 years with no bond
Not how Florida works
Ft OJ Simpson
To know they didn't go to either one of the funerals says A LOT!!! He had their names tatted on him and they were supposedly his brothers but he doesn't go to their funerals??? Tf?!
Cuz he guilty
They know he’s guilty
He was probably scared to death of showing up
I totally agree with this, Dad 💯
The father got me hurting. I pray for him
This is sad to watch. But respectfully that young man isn't crazy. He was well aware of what's happening. A decision was made that day. Those young men(victims) had no idea that they would be a sacrifice for fame. Money had/has nothing to do with it(in my opinion) because what he was promised is long term. That money that you speak of isn't nearly enough for him to do what he is accused of doing. He act as if he knows he is getting off for those allegations. 😢I'm so sorry. Both kids are loved.
My heart goes to the victim family
Prayers for the dad! Dont worry brother this boy will get the death penalty.
I believe it could be what the father is saying. Basically they didn’t have to pay Melly but they agreed too. I believe he felt he was the face that he should have control. So who ever bought the name they would’ve made money off Melly success. It would’ve been smart to sell for $500k anyway.
The fact that his own daughter wants her own brother's killer free is extremely disturbing. Yet people think that YNW Melly did not do it. Lets be real, they only care about his music. Period.
What???
Tribalism, blood sacrifice, it's what indigenous people do
Here’s the thing Kelly didn’t go because ppl were gonna judge him even if he went he would’ve been judged by everyone he would’ve lose in both situations and plus if his dad has a motive why can’t the state give a motive and plus they don’t have the weapon
He’s guilty that’s why he didn’t go
Plus he paid for both funerals and was at sac dinner right after according to the aunt
@@lanepaula8365 he paid 😂😂😂delusional
@@simmiesim321 that’s coming from the aunt of sac and the father of juvy, but I’ll be that sure 🤣🤣🤣🤣
