by HHL JT

YNW Melly's Instagram page is reporting that Melly has tested positive for coronavirus. 

"Melly has tested positive for COVID-19 today while awaiting his trial in Broward County Jail. He’ll be filing a motion for restricted release in hopes of better care due to any jails not being prepared to treat this new virus. He hopes for your support and to recover soon #prayformelly send positive energy to him please."

Melly is facing the death penalty in the killing of his YNW crew members SakChaser and Juv.  He has been held without bond and there has yet to be a date set for his trial.

Today, Tekashi 6ix9ine was released from prison early because of COVID-19.  While 6ix9ine's lawyers suggested that he may have the virus, there have been no reports of a positive test.
