How old is YNW Melly's mom? Age and more explored as rapper's mother pleads for positive trial outcome

An Instagram post by American rapper YNW Melly's mother and manager, Jamie Demons-King praying for a positive outcome of her son's ongoing trial is going viral. The post was shared by the 37-year-old on April 10, 2023, along with updates about the court dates. She wrote:

"Melly coming home today I went to court expecting more delays but we started jury selection. I can’t explain how I feel my anxiety is everywhere but God got us. #mellyfree2023 @_ynwbslime got see his brother on his birthday first time in 4yrs"

Jamell Maurice Demons a.k.a YNW Melly was arrested on February 13, 2019, after investigators found evidence that he fatally shot Anthony Williams and Christopher Thomas Jr. in 2018. He was charged with two counts of premeditated first-degree murder.

However, Melly alleges that someone else open-fired on him and his two friends, Williams and Thomas Jr., as they left the New Era Recording Studio.

Law enforcement officers did not find any evidence to support his claims, but they found a firearm in the vehicle the three men were traveling in. Additionally, autopsy reports suggest that the two were shot by someone sitting on the left rear passenger seat, where Melly was spotted sitting.

According to Jamie's Instagram update, the trial procedures were scheduled to begin on June 5, however, claims by the Miami Herald note that it would now begin on June 20, 2023.
