Second suspect arrested in Xxxtentacion death
A second person has been arrested in the June shooting death of emerging rap star Xxxtentacion, authorities in Florida announced Wednesday.
Michael Boatwright, 22, is facing first-degree murder charges in the killing, the Broward Sheriff ’s Office said in a news release. Boatwright was initially arrested last week on an unrelated drug charge, investigators said. Jail records didn’t list an attorney for him.
Also charged in the killing outside a Deerfield Beach motorcycle shop is Dedrick Williams, 22. His lawyer has said he will plead not guilty.
Authorities say robbery was the motive in the killing of the 20-year-old Xxxtentacion, whose real name was Jahseh Onfroy.
