Lil Durk Will Remain In Custody Pending The Outcome Of His Upcoming RICO Trial
Share

A Los Angeles jury just found Lil Durk not guilty on all charges in his murder-for-hire trial, but he’s not a free man yet. New details have surfaced about what’s next for the Chicago rapper following his verdict and fans are making it clear they still believe Durk will be back home soon.

One Case Down, But What’s Next For Lil Durk?

Prosecutors originally hit Lil Durk with five charges tied to murder-for-hire and interstate stalking. Meanwhile, the jury found his co-defendants, Deandre Wilson and David Lindsay, guilty of the stalking and stalking conspiracy charges but acquitted them of remaining charges. Although the jury found Durk not guilty on all charges, he won’t be coming home just yet. Durk will remain behind bars as he awaits his second trial on related racketeering charges. According to Complex, the trial is reportedly set to kick off on October 5.

More Details On Durk’s RICO Charges & Upcoming Trial

Prosecutors initially tried to bring Durk’s racketeering charges into his first trial, but the judge didn’t go for it. Now, the Grammy Award winner faces allegations that he ran a criminal enterprise connected to violence and drug trafficking. The case also reportedly includes a charge under the VICAR statue, which stands for Violent Crimes in Aid of Racketeering Activity. Additionally, Durk and his co-defendants face a sixth count connected to an alleged murder-for-hire plot targeting rapper Quando Rondo. Prosecutors claim the alleged plot ultimately led to the death of Rondo’s cousin, Saviay’a Robinson, also known as Lul Pub.

India Royale & Lil Durk's Mother Reportedly Share Reactions To His Verdict

According to reports, Lil Durk’s wife, India Royale, and his mother showed up in court as the jury delivered its verdict in Los Angeles on Friday, September 11. Durk reportedly broke down in tears after hearing the jury’s decision, while India wrapped her arms around his mother as she cried.

So far, India hasn’t publicly spoken out about the outcome of Durk’s trial. As The Shade Room previously reported, the ‘All My Life’ hitmaker once faced the possibility of life behind bars, but a federal jury ultimately found him not guilty on all charges in the murder-for-hire case tied to a deadly 2022 shooting.
