TL;DR Summary

During the trial of rapper YNW Melly, a Broward Sheriff's Office detective testified while wearing a ski mask due to having received death threats unrelated to the case. The detective presented evidence that Melly was associated with a gang and showed photos of him with gang members. Melly is facing two counts of premeditated murder and could face the death penalty if convicted. The prosecution alleges that Melly was a member of the G-Shine Bloods set and was learning the gang's oath of loyalty before the murders. Melly's defense objected to the detective's ski mask, and a juror complained about it.
