Lil Durk Celebrates Acquittal in Murder-For-Hire Trial: ‘I Feel All the Love and Positive Energy’
While the "Laugh Now Cry Later" MC was celebrating, viral rapper 6ix9ine was busy trolling him in the comments.
Lil Durk celebrated his acquittal in a murder-for-hire trial, expressing gratitude for the love and positive energy surrounding him. The "Laugh Now Cry Later" rapper, 33, was found not guilty on Friday, Sept. 11, of all charges related to plotting the killing of Quando Rondo's cousin. Durk posted on Instagram with his legal team, stating, "Against all odds, we're stronger together.
Allah doesn't make mistakes. I feel all the love and positive energy. Now let me be free to help save our kids and bring unity back to our communities. I couldn't have made it this far without my family, my lawyers, and supporters. Freedom. Freedom. Freedom." A Los Angeles jury deliberated for three days before finding him not guilty of five counts of murder-for-hire, stalking, and conspiracy.
Durk's co-conspirators, David "Browneyez" Lindsey and Deandre "OTF Dede" Wilson, were convicted of stalking and conspiracy but acquitted of murder-for-hire. While Durk remains in custody, as he faces an additional racketeering charge, a trial for that charge is scheduled for October 5, keeping him in prison until then. Despite the acquittal, some fellow MCs, including 6ix9ine, mocked Durk's continued imprisonment.
