Tampa Bay Rapper Hits The Studio With Two People Then Reportedly Murders Them

Posted by

TAMPA BAY, FL – Tampa Bay rapper ACH NH was supposedly going to have a typical night of recording music on Thursday (November 19), but evidently he had other plans.

According to the Tampa Bay Times, Ace — born Billy Bennett Adams III — was arrested on November 21 on two counts of premeditated first-degree murder charges after allegedly killing two individuals he went to his backyard shed-turned-studio with only two days prior.

The Hillsborough Sheriff’s Office confirmed the two victims traveled with Adams to the makeshift studio before a “violent execution” took place shortly before midnight on Thursday near an  University of South Florida off-campus student community.

Deputies say the 23-year-old rapper shot the two individuals and then fled in a vehicle. Police arrived at the gruesome scene about five minutes following the gunshots and declared the victims dead upon arrival. Law enforcement believes the incident to be gang-related, considering Ace isn’t shy about his Crip affiliations.

“Although the attack was clearly targeted, we will not allow gang-related disputes to disrupt the comfort and safety of innocent residents in any of our communities,” Hillsborough Sheriff Chad Chronister relayed to the Tampa Bay Times. “It is clear that this suspect had no regard for human life, and now he will face the consequences for his actions.”
