Lil Durk’s trial is inching closer, but it’s certainly not looking like a walk in the park for the Chicago rapper. Over the past few weeks, there have been new updates that prosecutors are hoping will allow a conviction to stick. While Durk has maintained his innocence, federal prosecutors have updated their case against him by filing a fourth superseding indictment. The revised charging document bumps the number of counts up to seven from six without introducing new allegations or altering the government’s case.
The latest indictment addresses what prosecutors described as a legal issue involving the federal interstate stalking statute. A single count previously combined allegations involving Quando Rondo, who is identified in court records as T.B., and Lul Pabb, real name Saviay'a Robinson. Prosecutors now say each alleged victim must be charged separately under federal law, prompting the revision.
As a result, the indictment now includes one interstate stalking charge related to the alleged targeting of Quando Rondo with a dangerous weapon and a separate interstate stalking count tied to Robinson's death. Robinson was fatally shot during the August 2022 attack in Los Angeles that authorities claim was intended for Quando Rondo.
Lil Durk's Charges
All remaining charges against Lil Durk remain intact. They include murder in aid of racketeering, conspiracy to commit interstate stalking, conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire, using interstate facilities to carry out a murder-for-hire resulting in death, and a related firearms offense. Banks has pleaded not guilty to the allegations.
The updated indictment comes shortly before Banks is scheduled to stand trial before U.S. District Judge Michael W. Fitzgerald. The court has already separated the racketeering allegations from the upcoming proceedings, meaning jurors will focus solely on the Los Angeles murder-for-hire case when the trial begins later this month.
