Dedrick Williams was arrested two days after XXXTentacion died in hospital.




Michael Boatwright was charged with murder on 10 July. He was already in jail after he had been arrested on drug charges five days earlier.

XXXTentacion, whose real name was Jahseh Onfroy, was visiting a motorcycle shop and left in broad daylight when he was approached by two men.

Both were masked and armed, and "demanded property" from XXXTentacion, according to Detective John Cucio.

At least one of the men shot him, before fleeing the scene in an SUV.

Rappers including Kanye West,Jay Z and Meek Mill paid tribute to X after his death.

The rapper's girlfriend announced she was pregnant a few days after he was killed.

"He left us a final gift," Cleopatra Bernard wrote on Instagram, next to an ultrasound picture of the unborn child.

In his video for Sad, which was released after his death, the rapper attended his own funeral and fought his resurrected dead body, before "killing" his old self.

His music explored themes of depression, loneliness, abandonment and suicide.

Many of his tracks climbed up the charts in the UK and US after he was shot, sparking questions about whether it was possible to separate his abusive personal life from his art.
