Drill rapper Foolio was gunned down in Tampa. |
Only days after his birthday, Charles Jones, known as Julio Foolio was shot and killed outside a Tampa hotel.
From Jacksonville, this once promising rapper was cut in his prime.
Foolio had been out celebrating his 26th birthday at locations he had publicly announced on social media before he and three others were shot in a parking lot.
Tampa police say they received a 911 call for a shooting at a Hilton hotel address around 4:40 a.m. local time, and found two vehicles that had been shot at. Four people were injured in the shooting, and three are in stable condition and being treated in hospital, according to police.
Police say the man who was fatally shot is believed to be Jones, but that positive identification is pending confirmation from the medical examiner.
The rapper's lawyer, Lewis Fusco, confirmed to local news station WTSP that Jones was shot and killed. Fusco said Jones was celebrating his birthday at an Airbnb rental but was asked to leave because there were too many people at the residence, and that he then went to the Holiday Inn where he was ambushed.
Jones, who has 1.1 million Instagram followers, posted on his Instagram account on June 14 that he was planning a June 21 "air bnb pool party," and invited followers to message him for the address. In the same post, he wrote that his birthday weekend would continue the next day at a strip club called Teasers.
In a post made several months earlier, Jones had claimed there had already been "multiple attempts" on his life. He had also talked about being shot in the foot, and posted images of himself in a foot cast.
Police say they are investigating what led up to the shooting and working to identify suspects.
Foolio warned of the ops. |
The unions back up their claims of "fearing for their lives" despite the perpetrator not even firing a round. Given that the junk food media loves to paint the aggressor as the victim, the police officer is given the benefit of doubt. The person police shot usually do not get any ounce of doubt. A mugshot of a suspect or a picture of a person posing with money or firearms automatically draws far right conclusions to justification of force.
The website Officer Down is a memorial to those police officers who were killed in the line of duty. Those victims who don't get their names or accomplishments mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence. We are tracking police violence as well.

Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence. Let them know that we are tired of police officers using immunity when committing death of suspects in custody. Let them know that you are tired of private equity firms getting away with destroying small businesses and long established companies. Let them know that you are tired of your taxpayer money going to foreign nations like Israel. Let them know you are very tired of your lawmakers embarrassing themselves in the media. You are tired of your lawmakers always being outside their district or state. You elected them to serve their districts and state not travel across the country or to foreign countries on your taxpayer dollars. You are tired of hearing about "Israel having a right to..." and the bogus claims of being anti-semitic or in support of terrorism. You want an immediate ceasefire and accountability for war crimes done by Israel. You want no more foreign influence in American elections. You also want to make sure future presidents and lawmakers avoid influence from lobbyists.
