A Fourth Defendant Pleads Guilty In Tekashi 6ix9ine Case

The alleged Nine Trey Blood member had previously threatened to "super-violate" 6ix9ine.

Jamel "Mel Murda" Jones, a former associate of the Tekashi 6ix9ine, has now taken a plea deal.

According to a New York Daily News report,Jones is the latest person to take a plea deal in the racketeering case involving the incarcerated Brooklyn rapper.

Jones, who used to rap under the name Mel Matrix, appeared in Manhattan federal court on Wednesday and admitted to assisting in moving heroin and fentanyl. He was charged with one count of racketeering conspiracy and one count of participating in a narcotics distribution conspiracy.

Jensel "Ish" Butler, Kifano "Shotti" Jordan, and 6ix9ine have all previously pleaded guilty.

Last year, Jones made headlines after audio acquired via a wiretap captured him saying 6ix9ine would be "super violated." "Ain't no much he could really do unless he run around with 100 armed securities all day," Jones added. The comments came after 6ix9ine announced he fired his entire team and denounced the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods. Jones also accused of 6ix9ine of "trying to dry snitch," according to a transcript from TMZ.

Jones is slated for sentencing in July.
