The Murder of Foolio: Suspects Plead Not Guilty
Recently obtained documents reveal that Isaiah Chance and Alicia Andrews pleaded not guilty on August 23. While local news outlets reported that Sean Gathright also entered a not guilty plea, XXL has yet to confirm this information. The suspects are facing multiple charges, including premeditated first-degree murder.
In addition to Chance and Andrews, Gathright is also charged with attempted premeditated first-degree murder and tampering with physical evidence. The severity of these charges underscores the gravity of the crime they are accused of committing.
Two other individuals, Rashad Murphy and Davion Murphy, are also implicated in Foolio’s murder. While Rashad Murphy has been arrested in Jacksonville, Davion Murphy remains at large, adding another layer of complexity to the case.
Previous Attempt to Kill Rapper
The tragic incident that claimed Foolio’s life occurred outside a Holiday Inn in Tampa, Florida, where he was celebrating his 26th birthday. The suspects allegedly traveled from Jacksonville to Tampa as part of an ongoing gang war, with the intention of targeting Foolio. Police claim that Chance and Andrews surveilled the rapper while Gathright and the Murphy brothers carried out the shooting.
When Gathright was apprehended on July 27, authorities discovered incriminating evidence in his vehicle, including firearms and spent casings that matched those from previous shootings. This revelation suggests that Gathright may have been involved in previous attempts on Foolio’s life, further complicating the case.
