Mariah Hamilton, the ex-girlfriend of rapper YNW Melly, was arrested on Sunday (January 26) on a warrant out of Broward County, Florida. 

According to AllHipHop, Hamilton was arrested after re-entering the United States when it was revealed she had a warrant for her arrest. The warrant reportedly stems from Hamilton skipping out on testifying in YNW Melly's high-profile murder case. That trial ended in 2023 in a mistrial after jurors failed to reach a unanimous verdict.

Hamilton was scrutinized from both sides in the case, with prosecutors alleging that Melly's associates influenced her not to testify. Hamilton also claims that she was threatened by law enforcement to get information. 

Hamilton told Law & Crime, "When the situation first happened, me and my mom was...well, I was threatened. I was 17, about to turn 18. They came to my house, they were telling me that they were gonna arrest me with accessory after the fact."
