<p>With Dedrick Williams, one of the four men accused of being involved in the 2018 killing of XXXTentacion, soon heading to trial, his attorney is calling for some big-name stars to take the stand.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Drudging Up Past Beefs With XXXTentacion</h3>
<p>According to the <em><a href="https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/crime/article268515827.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Miami Herald</a></em>, Dedrick&#8217;s defense attorney—Mauricio Padilla—filed a list of potential witnesses on Wednesday. Notably, a plethora of &#8220;international celebrities&#8221; graced the motion.</p>
<p>Specifically, the list named stars who had high-profile beefs with the late rapper. This includes celebs like <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/watch-drake-and-adonis-share-adorable-father-son-moment-at-raptors-game/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Drake</a>, 6ix9ine, Joe Budden, Offset, and Quavo. Other XXXTentacion rivals such as 600 Breezy and Top5, along with associates like Ski Mask the Slump God and Tankhead666, were named as well.</p>
<p>The outlet notes that, by listing artists who had feuds with X, the defense may be trying to create doubt about Williams&#8217; involvement in the crime.</p>

<p>We should add that there&#8217;s no physical evidence of any of the aforementioned celebrities being at the scene of XXXTentacion&#8217;s death. Additionally, while the rappers could possibly be called to testify, they can reportedly challenge the motion due to the lack of evidence.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">The Prosecution Isn&#8217;t Too Pleased About The Motion</h3>
<p>In response to the potential witness list, prosecutor Pascale Achille slammed it as a &#8220;deliberate, late disclosure,&#8221; as the trial is set for January 9.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;It is apparent from the deliberate, late disclosure of the defendant&#8217;s witnesses and comments made between the parties that [the] defendant intended to &#8216;surprise&#8217; the state and create a trial by ambush.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>However, the defense denied this and shared that, while the situation may not be easy, it can still be accomplished.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;They are high-profile people. And it&#8217;s not easy for me to subpoena. I don&#8217;t have numbers, but it doesn&#8217;t mean I won&#8217;t be able to.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Ultimately, the judge gave Padilla until Monday to submit his finalized list, along with the potential witnesses&#8217; contact information.</p>
<p>However, Jim Lewis, an attorney representing co-defendant Robert Allen, told the <em>Miami Herald</em> that he thinks the attempt is futile.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;From what I’ve seen in this case, it appears to be a crime of opportunity. There&#8217;s nothing to indicate this was a professional hit.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>What do you think about this star-studded list of potential witnesses? Additionally, do you think any celebs will actually testify at the XXXTentacion murder trial?</p>
