A rapper in Chicago has been sentenced to 99 years in prison for paying a hitman to kill his mother so he would have access to her life insurance and bank accounts.

Qaw'mane Wilson, otherwise known as "Young QC," was found guilty of murder for hire during the previous year, and yesterday he was sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison.

The 30-year-old had tried to hire a hitman in 2012 to do the job.

According to Cook County Judge, Stanley Sacks, the young man could have had whatever he wanted his mother to give him. She gave him life, and it was a choice he had to take it away from her.

Following her demise, Wilson used her money to customize the Mustang, which she had bought him, and evidence was illustrated to the jury of him withdrawing a big amount of revenue and even throwing cash into crowds of people during one of his shows.

Wilson, who was 23 during the time his mother died, ordered a hitman named Eugene Spencer to enter her apartment in Chicago, and there, he shot her in her sleep.

When he was asked if there was he could say before the verdict was provided, Wilson stated that no one loved his mother more than him because she was everything that he had.

Judge Sacks said during the sentencing that Holmes was by all accounts, a devoted mother. He was spoiled with anything his heart desired.

In a lengthy trial, the court heard the way the hitman, Spencer drove with Wilson's girlfriend to the rapper's mum's apartment.

Spencer stated he shot Ms. Holmes as she slept and then struggled with her boyfriend and managed to knock him unconscious before going back to stab Holmes and causing her death.

The gunman who was charged with Holmes's murder was also sentenced to 100 years in prison.

Allegedly Wilson had a phone conversation with Spencer shortly after he shot Holmes, where he told the hitman to make sure she was dead. Hence the reason why he stabbed the middle-aged woman.

Wilson then collected the money from her insurance and bank accounts. He was captured in a YouTube video when he withdrew thousands of dollars from a bank and tossed several wads of cash to the crowds of people he labeled as his fans.

Wilson, now 30, slouched and nodded when Judge Sacks announced the sentence.
