The rapper whose real name is Durk Banks, is being held without
bond in Broward County Jail.
Lil Durk’s arrest is grounded in an extensive federal investigation that
links him to a conspiracy charge around a murder-for-hire scheme.
According to police records, Durk is currently awaiting transfer of
custody to U.S. Marshals, signaling that federal authorities are taking over
the case.
The arrest comes as a result of the investigation into the murder of
Saviay’a Robinson aka Lul Pab, cousin to Quando Rondo, another well-known
figure in the rap world. Robinson was killed in Los Angeles in 2022, and
authorities allege a network of affiliations within the OTF collective, linking
them directly to this act of violence.
The indictment filed in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles claims that
five other Chicago natives Kavon London Grant, Deandre Dontrell Wilson,
Keith Jones, David Brian Lindsey, and Asa Houston, allegedly tied to OTF, have
been arrested alongside Durk.
According to the news outlet, all five men have been indicted on charges
including conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire, committing murder-for-hire
involving a death, and use of a machine gun in a violent crime resulting in
death.
Prosecutors argue that these individuals were backed by resources
allegedly provided by Lil Durk’s collective.
Among the evidence presented are flights and rental car reservations,
reportedly paid for with a credit card connected to the OTF label.
The prosecution further alleges that OTF offered “lucrative music
opportunities” to anyone who could eliminate Quando Rondo.
