Who is Young QC?
Qaw’mane Wilson is widely known as a rapper by the stage name Young QC.
Outside of his career, little information is available on the Chicago native’s personal life at this time.
What did Young QC do?
QC was on the rise in the early 2010s and had grown a substantial fanbase.
However, they were blindsided in 2013 after he was arrested and accused of murdering his mother.
Yolanda Holmes was stabbed to death a few months prior and authorities claimed that QC hired a hit man to murder her to inherit her wealth, according to The Washington Post.
She was a “beloved local beauty shop owner” who worked on the North Side of Chicago and would often shower her son with expensive gifts, including clothes, jewelry, and even a Ford Mustang.

After her death, he was seen flashing his $90,000 inheritance at luxury stores, a massage parlor, and at his home, The Washington Post notes.
A jury later found him guilty of first-degree murder.
What was Young QC’s sentence?
In February 2020, QC was sentenced to 99 years in prison.
The hitman, Eugene Spencer, was also sentenced to 100 years after being convicted of first-degree murder, according to The Washington Post.

“The word is ‘matricide,’ meaning murder of one’s own mother,” Cook County Judge Stanley Sacks said during the sentencing.
“Whatever he wanted, his mother gave to him. A car. A job. One could say he was spoiled. She gave Qaw’mane life, and it was his choice to take it way from her.”
QC showed little emotion during the sentencing, saying before the ruling: “I just want to say, nobody loved my mother more than me. She was all I had. That’s it.”
The getaway driver, Loriana Johnson, also landed in prison for her role in the event and had previously been sentenced to 14 years, prison records viewed by The Washing Post show.
