YNW Juvy's father is convinced Melly is guilty.

The father of one of YNW Melly's alleged victims, YNW Juvy, has shared what he believes to be the motive for Melly's alleged double-murder. Melly, along with YNW Bortlen, are accused of murdering Christopher “Juvy” Thomas Jr., and Anthony “Sakchaser” Williams in 2018. Christopher Thomas Sr. told Law & Crime that he believes the motive could have been a money dispute involving the YNW brand. According to him, the men were planning to sell YNW for "marketing and licensing." “Melly was gonna get $200,000, [Sakchaser] was gonna get $200,000, [Juvy] was gonna get $100,000,” he claims. The father believes that Melly wanted a bigger cut of the money than what was agreed upon.

“From day one, I believed that Melly was responsible for my son’s death on October 26,” he also said. He later claims that Melly's “demeanor” and “body language” has him convinced of his guilt. “When I finally talked to [Melly] and Cortlen on FaceTime, their response and how they reacted — they showed no remorse. They didn’t act like they was grievin,’ like they lost a best friend or nothin’," he also revealed, "in my opinion, they were in the best spirits. They never came to town, never came to my son’s funeral.”

The alleged victim's father also noted that, “[Melly's] defense attorney got him wearin’ turtle necks to hide his neck, ’cause he got ‘Jamell’ tatted on his neck — that’s Sak mom’s name. And he got Chris name and Sak name.” “These are best friends … he couldn’t even stop and pay his condolences to his best friend’s mom,” he explained, “I have no words for that guy.”

Juvy's father has also previously spoken out against those showing public support to Melly amid the trial. “Y’all are b*tches, man," he said. He even called out rapper Boosie Badazz for publicly supporting Melly. "Boosie down there supporting Melly — he flaw as f*ck for that," he said, "He don’t even know that n***a Melly. He talking ’bout, ‘I want Melly free ’cause that n***a bought me snacks and a magazine at the airport.’ What?”
