As the world awaits the verdict on the XXXTENTACION murder trial, jurors want to review the defendants' text messages. Moreover, these updates relate to codefendants Michael Boatwright and Dedrick Williams, as the jury wants to review their communication. However, it's important to consider that the jury went out for deliberation on Wednesday (March 8) and have deliberated for over 12 hours, though it's unclear if that time refers to today (March 13) or overall. Still, jurors want to see their text communications as well as videos, photos, or screenshots from the day before the murder to the day of the murder.
Moreover, this trial faced an exhausting and painstaking process, causing many to reflect on the five years that have passed since X's loss. For example, the defense team tried very hard to get Drake involved in this case, as they claimed he orchestrated the whole ordeal. After significant pushback from both the court of law and the court of public opinion, officials dismissed said motions. However, it remains a permeating and odd conspiracy online, as some subliminal bars are scarily coincidental.
XXXTENTACION Trial Jurors Want Text Message Evidence Shown To Jury
Regardless, the trial underwent some big changes from its inception. Another big development across the case was one of the four original codefendants becoming a state's witness. Also, DNA evidence points to another person entirely being responsible for the murder outside of a motorcycle shop in Florida. At least, that's what the defendants' attorneys claim in an effort to prove their clients' innocence. "Whoever [XXXTENTACION] struggled with is not in this courtroom,” he told officials. “The DNA proves that someone not named Michael Boatwright or Trayvon Newsome participated in this murder."
Meanwhile, the court clarified that while the three codefendants on trial are tried together, their convictions are separate. As such, perhaps they (including defendant Trayvon Newsome) won't all be convicted. However, they could all face upwards of life in prison, with the possibility of changes, reversals, or reductions looking slim. Overall, there's not much else left in this case but to await their fate. With that in mind, stay logged into HNHH for the latest updates on the XXXTENTACION murder trial and jury.
