In 2019, news surfaced noting that rapper EBE Bandz was missing, and right after that, two men were charged in connection to the rapper's death. Now, news surfaced noting that one of the men charged in the murder have been locked up on charges unrelated to the murder.

Via EBE Bandz’s Instagram account, an update was given about William Azarte, one of the men charged with the rapper’s murder. The caption on the IG post said, “Special Christmas present to all of @billydakid079 loyal fans. William Azarte, the one who killed Bandz is now locked up on unrelated charges that I’m sure will not help his defense on his murder trial. This is the first time I’ve ever been happy about anyone being locked up. It doesn’t take all the pain away but it sure helps!” Take a look above.
