Lil Durk has been denied bond again as he waits for his upcoming murder-for-hire trial.
The rapper, whose real name is Durk Banks, went back to court on Thursday, May 8, hoping the judge would let him out on bond, but things didn’t go his way.
Durk’s legal team argued that the whole case should be thrown out, or at least that he should be released, because the prosecutors used fake evidence. They said the grand jury was shown Durk’s lyrics and fan-made social media posts, which they believe unfairly painted him as guilty. Still, the judge wasn’t convinced and decided Durk would stay locked up until his trial.
Durk’s team came with a serious bond package: $1 million in cash, $900,000 in real estate, support from other people willing to put up money, plus a promise that Durk would be on house arrest with 24/7 security watching him. But even with all that, the court said no. Now, Durk will stay in the Los Angeles Metropolitan Detention Center until his trial starts. The trial was supposed to begin in January but got pushed back to October 14. It’s a tough break for the rapper, who has stayed quiet about the case publicly but continues to say he’s innocent.
Even behind bars, Durk has stayed active in music. Earlier this year, he dropped a new album called Deep Thoughts, giving fans a raw look into his mindset during this difficult time.
