Patrick Xavier Clark recently got a date for the murder trial of Takeoff, who was fatally shot in Houston in 2022.
Takeoff left an indelible hip-hop legacy behind when he passed in 2022, and the suspect in his murder will face trial later this year. Before that, though, Patrick Clark reportedly enlisted top Texas attorneys to prepare his defense, which could lead to quite the complex trial.
According to Click2Houston, lawyer Carl Moore filed a motion to withdraw from the case, per court documents. He reportedly indicated to the court that his former client now has new counsel. According to reported court documents, the suspect replaced attorney Letitia Quinones-Hollins with Houston’s Kent Schaffer. Some of his high-profile cases involve J. Prince and former Houston Mayor Fred Hofheinz, as well as legal and business work for Travis Scott, Scarface, Pimp C, and more.
In addition, Dan Cogdell and Anthony Osso have reportedly joined Patrick Clark’s case as defense lawyers. According to the filings, these legal team changes will not delay the case any further. Or at least, they are not intended to do so. We will see if any other significant changes or developments emerge regarding this long-awaited murder trial.
When Is The Takeoff Murder Trial?

Patrick Clark’s trial for Takeoff’s murder will reportedly begin on November 5, if everything goes according to the current schedule. Prosecutors accused him of shooting and killing the former Migos rapper at a Houston bowling alley in early November of 2022. He was reportedly an innocent bystander during an argument over a game of dice, and police arrested Clark for the murder a month later.
Police also reportedly arrested Cameron Joshua over the shooting on weapons charges in connection to the murder. Patrick Clark and his attorneys deny the allegations against him.
Elsewhere, though, Takeoff’s legacy continues in new ways. His street racing movie with Quavo, Takeover, finally got a release date of May 8. It’s reportedly the late Migo’s final on-screen appearance.
Quavo and Offset have done a lot in recent years to keep Take’s memory alive and to honor him in every way they can. Although this murder trial took a long time to get going, fans and loved ones are ready to close this chapter soon.
