Lil Durk verdict: Rapper ‘in tears’ after not guilty verdict as family celebrates acquittal

Lil Durk has been acquitted of all charges in a federal murder-for-hire case that involved the 2022 attack on rapper Tyquian "Quando Rondo" Bowman's cousin, Saviay’a "Lul Pab" Robinson. The video of G Herbo celebrating the verdict has gone viral, with the Chicago rapper expressing his disbelief at the outcome. The verdict followed a two-week trial and three days of jury deliberation.

While the acquittal is a major victory for Durk, he remains in federal custody and faces separate racketeering, murder, and firearms charges. A trial for these charges is scheduled for October 5. G Herbo and Lil Durk have a long-standing relationship within the Chicago hip-hop scene, with Herbo publicly supporting Durk during his legal battle.
