XXXTENTACION‘s killer Michael Boatwright has been condemned for appearing to mock the late rapper’s five-year-old son on social media.
Boatwright, who was one of three people convicted of murdering the “Look At Me!” rapper, shared a post of X’s son Gekyume on Instagram Stories where the child walked around his house showing pictures of his late father.

Boatwright — or whoever manages his Instagram page as he is in prison — added crying laughing emojis over the post.
He also shared a separate IG Story that showed Gekyume’s mother Jenesis Sanchez had viewed the post.

Boatwright captioned the second post: “She watchin” and added more laughing emojis.
He also revealed that he wanted to speak with Sanchez, writing: “Somebody tell her to text me I want to talk to her.”
Boatwright was widely condemned on social media for his actions and lack of remorse.
One user wrote: “XXXTENTACION killer Michael Boatwright is one evil soul, here you have him laughing at X son pointing at a picture of his dad, mocking Jenesis (X’s baby mother) & he actually had the nerve to add the video of him counting the cash he stole from X as a highlight on his Instagram.”
Another said: “Michael boatwright deserves to rot In jail.”

Last year, 29-year-old Boatwright and his co-defendants Dedrick Williams and Trayvone Newsome were sentenced to life in prison for the 2018 murder of XXXTENTACION outside of a Florida motorbike shop.
They have no possibility of parole or early release for good behavior.
Boatwright infamously blew a kiss and smiled at the camera when his guilty verdict was read aloud in court.
A fourth person involved in the murder, Robert Allen, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder charges in August 2022. He took to the stand to testify against his co-defendants during the trial in hopes of reducing his sentence.

He was ultimately sentenced to seven years behind bars but is expected to serve closer to two with time served.
XXXTENTACION’s ex-girlfriend Sanchez said of the guilty verdicts: “After five long years you may finally rest in peace. Gekyume will never get to meet you earthside but it is my job as a mother to ensure I share those special memories with him.”

She continued: “Jah was robbed of his life and Geky was robbed of his father. For this, I will never truly have complete peace but justice being served today helps the healing process.”
