It’s been over a year since Qawmane Wilson — the former aspiring rapper from Chicago known as “Young QC” — was accused of orchestrating the murder of his own mother before emptying her bank accounts and flaunting his inherited wealth all over the Internet, and family and friends are wondering why the trial is taking so long.


DNAinfo Chicago reports that Qawmane Wilson aka Young QC’s trial “keeps getting pushed back,” and even though an official trial date has yet to be set, the 25-year-old will “be back in court on May 6 for a status hearing, according to prosecutors.”

Wilson’s mother Yolanda Holmes — who was a popular salon owner and community activist — was found shot and stabbed to death on September 2nd 2012 in a murder that was allegedly orchestrated by Wilson and his friends Eugene Spencer and Loriana Johnson.

Qawmane Wilson aka Young QC: 8 Things You Need to Know About the Chicago Rapper Who Had His Mom Killed for Her Money
Prosecutors are accusing Wilson — Holmes’ only child and the sole beneficiary of her estate — of emptying almost $100,000 from his dead mother’s bank accounts, and he also allegedly received payouts from at least two of her insurance polices after her death.

Wilson proudly flaunted his newfound wealth by posting numerous photos of luxurious cars, jewelry, clothes and more on his Facebook, YouTube and Instagram accounts, which helped police put the pieces of the puzzle together regarding Holmes’ murder. Wilson was also seen throwing stacks of cash to his “fans” in a parking lot in a video he posted on YouTube.

Qawmane Wilson, who has his mother’s name tattooed to his shoulder, was arrested in December 2013 and is facing a number of charges, including murder and home invasion. He’s being held without bail.

12 Reasons Why Qawmane Wilson aka Young QC’s New Prison Buddies Will Love Him Long Time
In regards to the trial, a longtime friend and former employee of Qawmane’s mother,Tia Bouvi’a, says that it’s “taking forever.”

“A lot of people would like to know what’s going on,” Bouvi’a said. Police told her over a month ago that Wilson planned on pleading not guilty, but she doesn’t have any information on the case beyond that.

“I would think that they would’ve processed this a little faster,” she added.

According to court documents, Wilson admitted to arranging a robbery that led to his mother’s murder, and the getaway driver (Loriana Johnson) admitted to driving a friend of Wilson’s (Eugene Spencer) to his mother’s home to commit a robbery.

Court documents also allege that Spencer told detectives that Wilson asked him to murder his mom.

Last January, a relative of Wilson shouted during a court hearing, “You’re going to hell, Qawmane!” before being removed by an officer.

People will be at a basketball game, concert or club with bottles taking pictures , or zooming in to make it seem like they're courtside. What happened to just enjoying the moment? Why does everything have to be documented :what:. ?
Was thinking the same thing when I was at my first concert on Monday. The atmosphere was amazing. The venue intimate. And folks out here filming the dope performance:what:

Did I want pictures? You damn right! But I couldn't compromise my ability to be in the moment for something I won't look at much down the line. I remember the joy in that room as the acts played, and I geek out when I hear the songs now and remember the points where the audience went nuts...far more priceless than cell phone photos.

Social media status is the new currency. Literally, people put impressing people online above their own financial well being.

To add to that, obviously it intensifies competition. Common man is fighting for attention on the same exact platforms as famous millionaires

To some degree we are all guilty

Key is to find happiness in things that matter... family... financial security... being a positive element to those around u in real life..... etc.

I have a few close friends who ditched social media because they were just tired of the bullshyt.

I was gonna make a thread like this til I seen it was done already. Anyways, I think there's a serious mental issue with black youths in Chicago. This story had always stuck with me just cuz of how absurd and stupid it was. That woman did not deserve to die because her idiot soon wanted to floss on social media and stunt. When will nikkas realize that this hip hop "culture" is more toxic and harmful than it is helpful? Y'all call @PhonZhi all types of names when he makes those type of threads, but the result in our communities is a$$holes like this and plenty other stories we probably don't hear about in mainstream media.

People are stupid

This is the inescapable reality

If the throngs of idiots follow one of the smart people they can do great things, but that's not what we do.

We give every single person guns and internet and all this powerful stuff and we assume the average person can do reasonable things with them.

They'll unplug alot of this shyt soon.

Sometimes, militants can say some dumb shyt. I was out and about yesterday and some clown said "white supremacy got these young brothaz killin' they mommaz"

:unimpressed:
You would be shocked how often something similar gets said about other things.

That lil piece of shyt was loved by his Moms and he put a hit on her for chump change. That aint white supremacy, thats a special sort of degeneracy.

She gave that clown everything yet it still wasnt enough for him.

It's a shame how some people just make up excuses for people.
