Rapper Lil Durk has been charged with two more counts of felony, which are related to the murder-for-hire arrest.
A federal grand jury in Los Angeles has disclosed that the new charges have been approved against the 32-year-old rapper who is in connection with a 2022 murder-for-hire scheme; the incident was confirmed to have targeted fellow rapper Quando Rondo but instead led to the murder of Rondo’s cousin, Saviay’a Robinson.
The rapper Lil Durk, with the actual name Durk Banks, will now be facing new charges, which are based on using, carrying, and discharging firearms, including a machine gun. The charges will also relate to the fact the act resulted in the death of an individual, which is a violent crime.
The new federal jury has announced that Lil Durk has been added as the lead defendant to the previous charges that indicted him. The jury went on to charge Kavon London Grant, Deandre Dontrell Wilson, Keith Jones, David Brian Lindsey, and Asa Houston in connection with the alleged plot.
According to the allegations five men have been associated with Lil Durk’s Only The Family (OTF) label. It has also be indicated that the six persons who are the defendants in the case are expected to be brought before the United States District Court in Los Angeles in few weeks to come.
The Rapper Lil Durk is still held in Federal Custody in Miami Houston, and Jones is in federal custody at the Metropolitan Correctional Center Chicago.
As of November 4, Grant, Wilson, and Lindsey were all held at the Winnebago County Jail in Illinois, awaiting extradition to Los Angeles. The Prosecutors had alleged that the five defendants used two vehicles and worked in tandem to track, stalk, and attempt to murder Rondo at a gas station in Los Angeles.
