Dedrick Williams, Michael Boatwright, and Trayon Newsome have been found guilty of the first-degree murder and armed robbery of XXXTentacion.
On Monday, a jury in Florida closed its week-long deliberations when it found Dedrick Williams, Michael Boatwright, and Trayon Newsome guilty of first-degree murder and armed robbery, according to a report by theProsecutors did not seek the death penalty in the case and all three assailants face mandatory life sentences.
Robert Allen was also with the attackers that day, though he took a plea deal for second-degree murder in August of last year and later testified against his alleged co-conspirators. He stated that the decision to attack Onfroy was Williams’ idea and that it was Boatwright who shot him, and said he decided not to take part after recognizing that his face had been on camera inside the motorsports store.
Allen’s testimony also helped to weaken the defense’s string of murder-for-hire arguments against several targets including Drake, with whom Onfroy had been bashing on social media. The defense also tried to sway the jury with claims that Boatwright and Newsome were not present at the crime scene and cited a lack of DNA evidence from Boatwright, Newsome, or Williams. They also said that Allen was an unreliable witness due to his history of felony convictions.
