In a chilling development in the ongoing trial surrounding the murder of rapper Foolio, it has been revealed that Alicia Andrews, the woman currently on trial, expressed a desire for his death in text messages dating back to 2021. The courtroom drama unfolded on October 23 in Hillsborough County, Florida, as Andrews became the first of five suspects charged in Foolio’s murder to stand trial.
During the proceedings, Andrews’ best friend took the stand as a prosecution witness, discussing the notorious gang violence in Jacksonville, Florida, and Andrews’ connections to alleged gang member Isaiah Chance, who is also a co-defendant in the case. The prosecution delved into text messages exchanged between the two friends, where Andrews made shocking statements about Foolio.
In one particularly alarming message from January 2021, Andrews wrote, “Girl, I don’t like Foolio LMFAOO. Ugly-as bih. He need to die. Shid that was Will friend. Fk that code. Sht b**h he shot me and my friend died??? Yea, I’m pointing out who did it.” When questioned about the context of these comments, Andrews’ friend explained, “Well, she’s referring to somebody that had just died that we know. We are basically just gossiping.”
Alicia Andrews is facing serious charges including premeditated first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder in connection with Foolio’s death. Prosecutors allege that Foolio was killed in the midst of a gang feud in Jacksonville. The rapper was tragically shot on June 23, 2024, in a Holiday Inn parking lot in Tampa, Florida, where he was celebrating his 26th birthday.
According to the prosecution, Andrews and her boyfriend, Isaiah Chance, tracked Foolio’s movements throughout Tampa and relayed his location to the individuals charged with the fatal shooting: Sean Gathright, Rashad Murphy, and Davion Murphy. The other suspects are expected to face trial in the spring of next year.
The trial has already seen harrowing testimonies, including one from a friend of Foolio who sustained a non-fatal gunshot wound during the deadly incident. As the trial continues, the courtroom remains a focal point for tension, drama, and the search for justice in this tragic case.
