As the murder trial for slain South Florida rapper XXXTentacion begins, new surveillance footage has surfaced showing the “Look At Me” rapper withdrawing $50,000 from his bank just hours before he was robbed and murdered.

Surveillance Footage Released Showing XXXTentacion Withdrawing $50k Before Being Murdered
Currently, the X’s murder trial sees three of four men accused of being involved in his murder. The three names include: 28-year-old suspected shooter Michael Boatwright; 26-year-old Dedrick Williams; and 24-year-old Trayvon Newsome.
The fourth man, 26-year-old Robert Allen, has already pleaded guilty to second-degree murder last August, and also plans to testify against his three co-defendants in the case.

On the first day of trial, inside of a Broward County Courthouse in Fort Lauderdale, jurors saw the footage of X stopping at a Bank of America branch to withdraw a large sum of money.
Prior to the video being shown, one of several people took to the stand, including one person named Cecilia Ramos — which happens to be the bank teller who interacted with X back on June 18, 2018 — again just hours before X was ambushed, shot and killed for his belongings.

Now, in the video that was shown in court and surfaced online, X, born Jahseh Onfroy, is seen standing inside the bank, in front of a teller, wearing a jean varsity jacket, with a gray Thrasher hoodie underneath.
When asked to describe X’s demeanor, bank teller Cecilia Ramos said, “He was fine. He seemed happy.” In the video, the bank teller walks away from the register to grab X’s requested withdrawal, and meanwhile, he takes a phone call prior to the teller’s return.
Upon receiving his cash, X leaves the bank. It is reported that one of the main reasons the surveillance footage from earlier in the day was shown, is to prove that the Louis Vuitton bag X put his $50,0000 in, was the same bag that he was robbed of when he was ambushed, shot and killed later that day.
X was murdered while leaving Riva Motorsports in Deerfield Beach, Florida. Should the three men on trial be convicted of first-degree murder, they could all receive life sentences. Additionally, they all face charges of armed robbery.
