The YNW Melly double murder trial continues this week.

Yesterday, the judge (but not the jury) was shown a video of Melly hiding in a suitcase before he was detained for allegedly killing YNW Juvy and YNW Sakchaser.

Video played in court Monday shows @YNWMelly claiming he’s going to turn himself in while allegedly hiding inside a suitcase. “My name is Melly and I’m going to turn myself in,” the rapper whispered. This video was not shown to the jury. pic.twitter.com/W6cyv7Hxe3

"My name is Melly, and I’m going to turn myself in. But I'm in a suitcase because these crackers are arresting me, and I want to get on a private jet so they don't see me,"Melly says.

Melly could get the death penalty if convicted.
