Lil Durk, the Rapper, Arrested for Alleged Murder-for-Hire Plot
Lil Durk is facing legal troubles.
The “All My Life” rapper—whose real name is Durk Devontay Banks—was arrested Oct. 24 in Broward County, Fla., by U.S. Marshals on pending charges of murder for hire, according to police records.
Banks’ arrest comes one week after the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California unsealed an indictment that charged five people with ties to the hip-hop group Only The Family (OTF)—which he founded in 2010—as co-conspirators in the 2022 killing of an individual only named as S.R. in Los Angeles, according to documents obtained by NBC News. However, it’s unclear if Banks’ recent arrest is connected with this case.
Kavon London Grant, Deandre Dontrell Wilson, Keith Jones, David Brian Lindsey and Asa Houston were indicted on charges including conspiracy and use of interstate facilities to commit murder-for-hire resulting in death; use, carry and discharge of firearms and machinegun, as well as possession of such firearms in furtherance of a crime of violence resulting in death.
