Lil Durk Could Face Death Penalty In Murder-For-Hire Plot – AllHipHop

Lil Durk is in prison in Florida for his role in an alleged murder-for-hire plot related to a 2022 murder.

The 31-year-old was arrested Thursday (Oct. 24) and is being held without bail in the Broward County Jail, facing a single count of first-degree murder, according to court records.

He is expected to be transferred to the custody of the US Marshal to await federal proceedings.

The charges stem from the August 2022 slaying of Saviay’a Robinson, a cousin of fellow rapper Quando Rondo, in West Hollywood, California.

Robinson was fatally shot at a gas station, and authorities say Lil Durk offered money and “lucrative music opportunities” to anyone willing to kill Quando Rondo.

Prosecutors presented evidence suggesting the plot was a revenge move after the November 2020 killing of rapper King Von, a close associate of Lil Durk.

Federal investigators claim that the flights and rental vehicles used by the suspects were financed with credit cards linked to the OTF tag, suggesting a coordinated effort within the group.

King Vona prominent member of Durk’s “On The Family” (OTF) collective, was murdered in Atlanta on November 6, 2020 by Timothy “Lul Tim” Leaks.

Tim was charged with felony murder in King Von’s death, but those charges were eventually dropped.

In addition to Lil Durk’s arrest, five alleged OTF affiliates were detained in Chicago on charges related to the case.

The individuals, identified as Kavon London Grant, Deandre Dontrell Wilson, Keith Jones, David Brian Lindsey and Asa Houston, face a number of federal charges, including conspiracy to commit murder on their own account, murder on their own account involving death and the use of a machine gun in a violent crime resulting in death.

If convicted, Lil Durk and his associates could face severe penalties, including life in prison or possibly the death penalty.
