Lil Durk is facing an alleged murder-for-hire charge

Earlier this week, Lil Durk was arrested in Florida and hit with an alleged murder-for-hire charge. Yesterday, it was reported that the rapper had been transferred out of Broward County Jail and was most likely headed to Los Angeles. Now, according to DJ Akademiks, he's been booked into a Miami prison. Reportedly, he's waived his right to an identity hearing and is waiting for U.S. Marshals to transport him to California.

The news arrives as more details of Durk's arrest are surfacing online. According to Associated Press, for example, authorities believe he allegedly booked flights from Florida to Switzerland, Dubai, and Italy in attempts to flee the country. Obviously, he didn't board any of these flights ahead of his arrest.

Lil Durk's arrest took place hours after five alleged OTF affiliates were arrested and hit with similar charges. Law enforcement thinks they were allegedly hired to carry out the murder of Quando Rondo in retaliation for King Von's death. In 2022, Rondo and his cousin Lul Pab were in a vehicle that was shot up at an LA gas station. Rondo survived while Lul Pab passed away.

Reportedly, Durk could face the death penalty or life imprisonment if he's found guilty. Of course, Durk's arrest has prompted big reactions from countless social media users and peers. The attorneys representing the late FBG Duck's estate even released a statement about the indictment yesterday. They alleged that Durk's arrest has brought them "one step closer to justice." Earlier this month, FBG Duck's mother LaSheena Weekly sued Lil Durk, OTF, the city of Chicago, and various other record labels for alleged wrongful death, civil conspiracy, negligence, and failure to render aid.
