Cooperators Testify That Lil Durk Directed 2022 Ambush That Killed Lul Pab

Prosecutors are winding down their case with cooperating-witness testimony plus digital and surveillance records meant to tie Durk to the alleged retaliation plot.

Overview

  • Three cooperating witnesses who pleaded guilty — Kacey “OTF Jam” Hester, Keith “Flacka” Jones, and Kavon “OTF Vonni” Grant — have testified for the government linking Durk to the August 2022 Los Angeles attack that killed Saviay’a “Lul Pab” Robinson.
  • Keith “Flacka” Jones told jurors that DeAndre “Dede” Wilson said Durk had offered a $1 million payout to anyone who found and killed Quando Rondo and testified he never received payment after the shooting.
  • Kavon “OTF Vonni” Grant directly told the jury that “Durk told us to,” describing his role arranging vehicles, masks and travel for the operation and recounting an earlier 2021 attempted ambush in Georgia.
  • Prosecutors have paired the witness accounts with documentary evidence from Durk’s iCloud, texts, surveillance video and limited song and interview excerpts admitted by the judge while the defense presses credibility attacks.
  • The trial is moving toward a close of the prosecution’s case with prosecutors indicating they expect to rest soon and the defense preparing to present its case; if convicted Durk faces up to life in prison and public claims of celebrity-funded legal help remain unverified in court records.
