Lil Durk Argues He’s in Jail Due to YouTube ‘Fan Pages,’ …

Lil Durk’s attorneys try to get the Chicago star out of jail, or get his murder-for-hire expenses dismissed altogether, by claiming that the federal case towards him is mistakenly based mostly on movies from YouTube “fan pages.” A number of motions filed on Friday (April 18) level out that prosecutors used a bit of the Babyface Ray and Durkio monitor “Wonderful Wayne and Jackie Boy” as proof the rapper “sought to commercialize” the homicide of Saviay’a Robinson, cousin of Quando Rondo, with whom Durk had reportedly been feuding — however that Durk had nothing to do with the model of the track the feds referenced.

Durk had beforehand defined that the lyrics to “Wonderful Wayne and Jackie Boy” have been written many months earlier than Robinson was killed, so he couldn’t have been discussing it in his verse. On Friday, he added an extra wrinkle to his argument.

The federal government stated in a January listening to {that a} model of the track existed that contained TMZ footage associated to Robinson’s homicide.

“The bottom line is there was a video that was filmed showing defendant’s rival screaming, ‘No. No,’ that was placed over these lyrics,” prosecutors stated.

Durk’s group claimed on Friday that the model of the track with footage regarding Robinson’s homicide was not created or posted by the rapper.

“The internet users who posted the videos…are apparent ‘fan pages’ maintained by people with no affiliation to Mr. Banks or Only the Family, Inc,” they wrote in a submitting. “It is unfair, misleading, and just flat-out wrong for the government to suggest that Mr. Banks is responsible for these video/audio edits or that they evidence his purported commercialization of a murder that he supposedly ordered.”

The movies at problem — seen here and here — have been posted by YouTube accounts @otf_edit and @mymixtapez.

Durk’s attorneys are asking for the rapper to both be launched to house detention for a bond bundle totaling simply over $2 million in money and fairness in actual property; or, alternately, for the indictment towards him to be dismissed.

Durk is charged with inserting a bounty on Quando Rondo, and recruiting individuals to “find, track, and kill” him. In an try to kill Rondo, prosecutors argue, Robinson, who was a passenger in his cousin’s automobile, was killed.

Prosecutors claim that Rondo and Durk started feuding when “an associate” of Rondo’s shot and killed King Von.
