This article discusses the tragic murder of rising rap star, XXXTentacion, providing a detailed account of the events leading up to his death.
On June 18, 2018, XXXTentacion, whose real name was Jahseh Onfroy, was shot and killed in a robbery outside a motorcycle dealership in Deerfield Beach, Florida. The 20-year-old rapper had been shopping for motorcycles when he was approached by two men in a dark SUV. The assailants attempted to rob him and a struggle ensued, ultimately leading to XXXTentacion being shot multiple times.
The murder caught widespread media attention due to XXXTentacion's growing popularity within the music industry. Despite controversy surrounding his personal life, including allegations of domestic violence, the rapper had amassed a large following and was seen as a rising star in the rap community.
Law enforcement agencies quickly launched an investigation into the murder, leading to the identification of the two suspects as Dedrick Williams and Michael Boatwright.
Authorities determined that the motive behind XXXTentacion's murder was robbery, as the assailants had stolen a Louis Vuitton bag from the rapper's vehicle containing a significant sum of money. This finding contradicted earlier theories suggesting the crime was gang-related or related to an ongoing feud.
