Lil Durk Found Not Guilty in Federal Murder-for-Hire Trial After Jury Deliberation
After three days of jury deliberations in Los Angeles, rapper Lil Durk was found not guilty on all federal murder-for-hire charges related to a 2022 shooting targeting rapper Quando Rondo. The verdict was confirmed following speculation and rumors during the trial's final day. While Durk was acquitted, co-defendants Wilson and Lindsey were convicted on stalking-related charges but acquitted of murder-for-hire. Durk still faces a separate federal racketeering case. His defense team includes prominent attorneys Brian Steel, Drew Findling, Marissa Goldberg, and Christy O'Connor.
