Today is the first day of the trial of the three men accused of murdering XXXTentacion.
Michael Boatwright, Dedrick Williams, and Trayvon Newsome are facing first-degree murder and armed robbery charges for gunning XXX down in front of a South Florida motorcycle shop more than four and a half years ago.
Things got wild pretty quickly in the courtroom when one of the lawyers for the defense suggested that Drake either killed or had XXX killed.

“[XXXTenatcion] is killed by two men, right? Â He came on social and says, before he dies, ‘Guys, if anyone kills me it’s Drake.’Do you think in that time frame anyone addressed [Drake] or talked to him? Â No. Â Do you think sitting today years later any detective has asked Drake? Â No, they never did that. Â The reason they wanted security for [XXX] on the day that he was shot was because he had problems with Drake and Migos,” the lawyer argued.
Drake had been beefing with XXX shortly before his death and there have been some wild conspiracy theories that have tied Drizzy to the murder, which prosecutors say was just a robbery.
