New Footage of Yungeen Ace With The Doctor Minutes Before Foolio’s Death Changes Everything | HO
The death of Jacksonville rapper Foolio, born Charles Jones Jr., sent shockwaves through the hip-hop world and the streets of Florida. But as new details emerge—including never-before-seen footage and testimony from hospital staff—the narrative around his final moments and the events leading up to his murder is shifting in ways no one could have predicted. In a case already marked by violence, betrayal, and a culture of dehumanization, the truth may be even darker than anyone realized.
A Birthday, a Setup, and a Deadly Ambush
July 6, 2024, was supposed to be a day of celebration. Foolio, turning 26, spent the morning on Instagram Live, inviting fans to a pool party in Tampa, Florida. “Pool party start at 5:00. If you got the address, pull up. If you need the address, DM me,” he told thousands of viewers. It would be his last public appearance alive.
Within 12 hours, shots rang out in the parking lot of the Holiday Inn near Busch Gardens. Four people were hit; Foolio was the only fatality. Media outlets reported the incident as just another rapper shootout, but sources on the ground and inside the hospital say this was a calculated execution, planned with military precision—and that the violence didn’t end after the last bullet was fired.
Hospital Hostility: “One Less Gang Member to Treat”
Foolio arrived at Tampa General Hospital around 5:42 a.m., suffering from four gunshot wounds, including one to the chest. According to multiple nurses who have since broken their silence, the ER staff was anything but neutral. “They left him bleeding out while laughing in the hallway,” one trauma nurse whispered to a colleague, describing a scene of callous indifference and even open hostility.
Another nurse, who requested anonymity for fear of retaliation, said, “No one here had ever seen a patient come in with that many gunshot wounds and still be conscious. He tried to say something—looked like he mouthed ‘Don’t trust…’ but his voice was too weak.” Foolio died less than 10 minutes later.
The staff’s reaction after his death was even more disturbing. A male technician reportedly said aloud, “One less gang member to treat,” prompting laughter from others. This wasn’t just a lack of professionalism—it was a culture of dehumanization, where a young Black man’s trauma became the punchline.
The Streets Knew Before the Shots
According to law enforcement and sources close to Foolio, he didn’t even want to be in Tampa. He’d chosen the city last minute, hoping to avoid Jacksonville rivals who had been hunting him for years. But his location was posted on social media, and surveillance footage, Cash App receipts, and Ring camera data placed multiple suspects in the area hours before the shooting.
The ambush was surgical. Two vehicles, phones left at home to avoid GPS tracking, bullet fragments linked to other homicides, and 4K surveillance from Teslas in the lot. Police say this was not random violence, but a coordinated hit fueled by months of surveillance and betrayal.
The Girl in the Room: Betrayal from Within
Investigators quickly zeroed in on a young woman who was with Foolio at the hotel. She’s now cooperating with detectives, reportedly hoping for a deal. According to sources, she texted Foolio’s location to his enemies. One of the suspects, an 18-year-old who had previously shot Foolio in the foot, allegedly drove three hours to carry out the hit. The sophistication of the operation was matched only by the betrayal that made it possible.
Police, Technology, and the New Age of Murder Investigations
Within hours, Tampa police were combing through a digital gold mine: surveillance video, license plate readers, social media posts, and phone logs. Investigators reconstructed Foolio’s final hours minute by minute, tracking his movements from Teaser’s Gentlemen’s Club to the Holiday Inn. License plate readers documented the suspects’ journey from Jacksonville to Tampa. Cell phone data showed the killers using GPS coordinates and Instagram monitoring to stalk their target.
The same technology Foolio used to connect with fans was weaponized against him. Every time he posted, he was giving real-time intelligence to people who wanted him dead.
Yungeen Ace: Minutes Before Death
But the most explosive revelation came not from the streets, but from inside the hospital. New footage, obtained by this publication, shows Yungeen Ace—Foolio’s longtime rival—standing outside the trauma bay, speaking with a doctor just minutes before Foolio was pronounced dead.
The footage, timestamped and authenticated by hospital security logs, does not show Ace entering the treatment area, but captures him in a heated exchange with a physician. According to a hospital porter who witnessed the scene, “Ace was asking about Foolio’s condition. He wasn’t gloating, but he wasn’t grieving either. It was like he wanted to confirm something for himself.”
The doctor, visibly uncomfortable, refused to share details, citing HIPAA regulations. But the encounter has fueled wild speculation online. Was Ace there to taunt his rival, or to make sure the job was finished? Or was he, as some suggest, simply caught up in the chaos of the moment, drawn to the hospital by news spreading rapidly through the streets and social media?
Police Attitudes: “Finally Got Him”
If Foolio’s enemies celebrated, they weren’t alone. Multiple sources, including rapper Boosie, say that some members of law enforcement openly mocked Foolio’s death. “They be happy as hell when a rapper gets killed,” Boosie said. “I know one dude, they walked right in and said, ‘Finally got him.’”
At Tampa General, police demanded surveillance footage from the ambulance bay within 30 minutes of Foolio’s death. Officers allegedly made jokes about Foolio’s music as they stood over his body, referencing his infamous diss track “When I See You,” in which he taunted dead rivals. “I wonder if he’s still smoking on BB now,” one officer reportedly quipped.
A Life Marked by Trauma and Retaliation
Foolio’s story was one of pain, paranoia, and a cycle of violence he could never escape. Shot at 15, his hip shattered as he got off a school bus, Foolio grew up in a world where survival meant striking back—through music and, sometimes, through force. His younger brother was killed by police at 15. He was blacklisted by clubs, banned from venues, and even had his music banned in his own city.
For Foolio, rap was retaliation—a way to take power back in a world that left him bleeding. But it also made him a target, and in the end, not even death brought him dignity. Not from the media, not from law enforcement, and not from some of the people sworn to save him.
Justice, Technology, and the Viral Aftermath
The investigation into Foolio’s murder was a technological tour de force. Within a month, police arrested five suspects: Isaiah Germaine Chance, Alicia Latoya Andrews, Sha Andre Gathright, Rashad Murphy, and DaVon Murphy. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for three of them. The evidence—surveillance footage, phone records, social media posts, and physical evidence—was overwhelming.
Bodycam footage of the arrests went viral, turning the tragedy into a spectacle. The same tools that helped solve the case also turned it into entertainment, blurring the line between justice and voyeurism.
A Legacy of Violence and Unanswered Questions
Foolio’s death has left a scar on Jacksonville’s drill rap scene. His posthumous album, “Demiggod,” dropped in September 2024, celebrated by fans but also criticized for its raw depiction of violence. At his funeral, family members rapped “When I See You,” a stark reminder that the culture of beef and retaliation had penetrated even the most sacred moments of grief.
In the aftermath, his mother announced a documentary to tell her son’s “real story,” hoping to reclaim the narrative from the headlines and the hashtags.
Conclusion: Who Knew, Who Watched, Who Stayed Quiet?
Foolio didn’t just die in a parking lot—he died in a system that had written him off long before the bullets flew. His final moments, as revealed by nurses and new hospital footage, were not silent. He tried to speak, tried to warn, tried to say goodbye. But the real story isn’t just about who pulled the trigger. It’s about who helped, who watched, and how many stayed quiet.
As the investigation continues and the culture that created Foolio’s world reckons with its own demons, one thing is clear: this story isn’t over. Not in the streets, not in the courtroom, and not in the culture.
