Lafayette, IN, October 21, 2026 —
Billy Adams, a rapper from Tampa, Florida, known as “Ace NH,” has written to the judge presiding over his case to request the death penalty, according to the available information. Adams was convicted of murdering a woman and her unborn child.
The request comes ahead of a sentencing hearing scheduled for December 1. The year of the hearing was not provided. The information also does not identify the judge, the court, or the location where the case was heard.
Details about the letter beyond Adams’s request were not provided, including when it was sent or whether the judge has responded. The circumstances of the killings, the date of the conviction and the specific charges were also not included.
The available account does not state what sentence prosecutors sought, whether the defense made a sentencing request, or what sentencing options are before the judge. It also does not specify whether Adams’s request will affect the proceedings. Those details were not provided, so the request alone does not establish what sentence the court will impose.
The next scheduled event identified in the account is the December 1 sentencing hearing. No further information about the case’s procedural history or what may happen after the hearing was provided.
