TL;DR Summary

Three men have been found guilty of the 2018 murder of rapper XXXTentacion, who was shot outside a South Florida motorcycle shop while being robbed of $50,000. The defendants, Michael Boatwright, Dedrick Williams, and Trayvon Newsome, were all found guilty of first-degree murder and armed robbery by a jury that deliberated for a little more than seven days. They will receive mandatory life sentences at a later date. Prosecutors linked the men to the shooting through extensive surveillance video and cellphone videos they took that showed them flashing fistfuls of $100 bills hours after the slaying.
