Bobbi Kristina Brown's cousin Jerod Brown wrote that he wanted the world to "uplift" the R&B scion as she remains in a medically induced coma.

He’s back from behind bars. Following his Monday arrest, Jerod Brown shared yet another Facebook post on Wednesday, Mar. 25, about his cousin Bobbi Kristina Brown, who remains in a medically induced coma.

"I'm so glad to see Bobbi Kristina is loved by you all!!!" Jerod, 27, wrote of his cousin, 22. "She's been through so much even from a little girl."

He then referred to a Whitney Houston single to thank supporters for their continued wishes. "Its good to know the world can be unified and uplift Auntie Whitney's Greatest Love of All at this time," he wrote.

"When this situation passes, all I ask is that you all continue to uplift her and support the rest of her mission here on earth. I am only a soldier, standing as much as I can, and I'm thankful to know I do not stand alone. #JerodBrown #YFKennedy."

Several hours later, he shared lyrics from T.I.'s track, "Sorry," extracting the verse: "Never mind what the blogs say/ what my mind and my heart say."

Jerod's latest Facebook updates were made just two days after his arrest. As the Atlanta Police Department told Us Weekly, police pulled over Jerod after smelling marijuana from his vehicle. Bobby Brown's nephew then lied to authorities about his identity, claiming that his name was "Jahraim Reid."

After an hour had passed, he finally confessed his real name and actual date of birth. Jerod was taken into custody after it was revealed that a warrant was out for his arrest. He was also thrown in jail for driving without a license and giving a false identification to authorities.

"Thanks to my attorney Jonathan R. Melnick for bringing me home!" he wrote on Facebook. "How you all been???"

While Jerod has been one of Bobbi Kristina's most outspoken family members (he released a "Pray4BK" music video last week), his uncle Bobby released a statement saying he was not to be trusted.

"Jerod Brown aka Jerod Carter aka YF Kennedy, continues to makes statements and appear on television, however, he has not had any communication with Bobby Brown or the Houston family," Bobby's lawyer Christopher Brown told Us Weekly last month in a statement. "He must be disregarded. Please do not attend any 'meet and greet' organized by Jerod Brown as he is unable to provide access to Bobbi Kristina or information on her condition. This is a criminal investigation and we do not need this side show."

Meanwhile, Bobbi's maternal grandmother Cissy Houston broke her silence on Wednesday in a radio interview. "She's the same," Cissy said of her granddaughter, who was found facedown and unresponsive on Jan. 31. "We've moved her to a place for rehabilitation. And you know, still not a great deal of hope. [We're] still praying."
