Starting point is 00:00:02 Remote. Okay. Hello. Well, I can hear you. I haven't heard her yet. Yo, Mama Doug. Mama Duck, this is Academics here. We're on a live stream.
Starting point is 00:00:25 I'm very glad that you had some time to call in. I appreciate you. You're welcome. How are you? I'm good. I wanted to, and I thought it was very important. You know, I think this is one of the biggest, you know, obvious cases that's come from Chicago. it's very consequential, but we need everybody's opinion, especially the people who have lived it,
Starting point is 00:00:49 the people who have seen and, you know, experienced some of the best or the worst from, you know, all of the good situation. And to me, it was important to have you on. I just want to start up by just asking you, Lil Durk currently on trial for the murder of someone that's not from Chicago. his name is Lil Pop. However, we all know Little Dirk's history with Chicago. Notably, he has a song, This and Your Son, called Should Have Duck, right?
Starting point is 00:01:24 There's been a lot of back and forth from, you know, even his former friend that passed away, King Vaughn and everything. When you see this type of trial happening now, even though it's not connected directly to your son or connected directly to a situation dealing with your son, what's your overall thoughts I've seen a video of you recently but I wanted to hear it from the horses well you really want to know my thoughts at no I do I do because I'm feeling a type of way
Starting point is 00:02:07 because you're going to knee on here that's sad I'm glad you see that why don't they why are they upset about that the same people who are in doing all this shit because it was just stupid it was stupid it was
Starting point is 00:02:37 okay okay and this might be a This might be a tough question to ask you because, you know, obviously it's your son. And like the things we're hearing Dirk being accused of, you know, just respectfully, but I do want to ask you straight up. Are you trying to say that your son has never been accused of, you know, putting hits on people, getting people killed? Because I think that's where they might look at you and be like, hey, you're being a little bit hypocritical. Your son wasn't an angel. Why do you say allegedly, we saw the trial and I saw you comment.
Starting point is 00:04:33 on a trial. There was convictions. Why do you say allegedly? Oh, okay, okay. I apologize. So let me give you the pushback a bit, right? Because, you know, obviously, we got to try have a good discussion. So they would say, or I've heard people say, well, here's the issue. Mama Duck is acting like her son was a saint and that he didn't, that he didn't contribute to some of the violence, whether hyping it up, he was super involved. even if baby you did what's your you know i remember watching you know obviously you you went through and seen how the trial ended for the oblox six right and what i did notice with you i could i felt like you wanted justice not revenge when you see what's happening to little dirk right now obviously
Starting point is 00:07:27 it's not directly connected to one of your sons in terms of the charges but clearly there's a history there true understanding or demeanor or feelings towards little bit. Do you want them to be innocent? Let me ask you because you've been in the position where like little pop's, little pop's mom and by the family, their family's been shown up to court. How was it for you, you know, you were the first person that actually told the internet like, hey, listen, they, the police told me that they're nearing arrest and we saw that was true. How did you go through it with dealing with the pain, the long?
Starting point is 00:09:26 You've lost other children as well. But how did you go through that and, you know, did maybe the verdict knowing that those guys, you know, they're subsequently not going to come home? Did that make it a little bit better? We just saw, I wonder if you saw Gillie's video, but Gilly video addressed parents who lost children. And, you know, for him, you can tell he's broken over it. How have you taken that? Did you feel a little bit of justice like, fuck them niggins like they're not going to come back or what do you think? I'm sorry, if I need a one of them motherfuckers
Starting point is 00:09:59 who was brave enough to go downtown, they'll shoot somebody. I'm glad you're saying, because I did hear there's some rumors. So from what you saw in that trial, speak on, speak on it. So you believe deep thing, Dirt's brother who got killed
Starting point is 00:10:52 actually put money on your son? You don't think that. What does that mean? Because, like, I think a lot of us, even me, I'm looking at this. I'm like, this is almost like the end. I think, This got to be the end of so much of this.
Starting point is 00:11:37 You know, like, if it goes down how the feds wanted to, they're closing chapters. They're not, like, this is, this is not like, oh, the middle of the series. This is over. It's, they're getting everybody out the way. You still think there's more to come, whether the feds or, you know, just other people being held accountable. What do you think? What? What?
Starting point is 00:12:13 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Could you repeat? You say, when you think this is over, you say what? Why do you think that? Right? Yeah. So if Dirk got sentenced to life in prison, would you,
Starting point is 00:13:14 because I know some people from Chicago, they have looked at his success and they say, you know what? Even if we didn't like him, he was a positive, you know, at least with his career. It was a good look for Chicago. If he gets sentenced to life,
Starting point is 00:13:29 will you have any type of, you know, not necessarily sadness, but be like, man, I empathy I guess empathy is the right word mhm hey can I ask you this question because a lot of people while we kind of reflect that you know some of the things
Starting point is 00:15:50 that and I know for sure what? What? What? I'm glad you continue to share your story because I think people don't hear like especially when you know like your son's gone so they can't hear from him
Starting point is 00:17:00 but it's important that your voice keeps getting amplified that people could realize that beyond just you know the rapper that everyone loved there's a family there's a mom and you probably still have to pick up the pieces and you know keep going on strong um in regards of what happened so you know i want to give you your credit for that are you tuned into this case or are you like you're so sick of like all of this today they played the video of little pop with a bull bullet in his heart, you know? Are you kind of sick of, like, hearing about or seeing videos of violence and are you checked out or are you still like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:17:43 Yeah, that for me because I can't even go to sleep without. Can I ask you a question? So, uh, I, you know, when I asked you who you do have, you know, some type of empathy for, you mentioned his baby mama, his mom. They're going to be present. I saw his baby mom come into court today. I'm not too. sure, I'm not to even sure who his mom is, but I would imagine that she would probably be in and around the proceedings. If you could, you know, you a mom who went through losing a son that was a star that was a, you know, a public figure, you had to go through ridicule everything in the book. If you could say something publicly, India right now is going through sitting there in trial
Starting point is 00:20:16 and having to hear probably the worst things about her baby father and husband. I believe they're married and then possibly his mom or other baby moms or other women in his life you being one of the strong figures that was in your son's life what would you say to those women who they're you know maybe not through murder but they're they're potentially about to go through losing in like in eternity someone who they care about what would you say to them She's the realest one owner. Everybody that this means works. So people only pray when things are bad.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Wow. And that's the problem with that. Every motherfucker got he was doing. Got everybody around him, and they mean him no good. Yeah. I offer you my condolences. I know, again, that Gilly video kind of woke me up in terms of, you know, I think some people look at you and they're like,
Starting point is 00:23:16 Oh, are you still talking about this? But it's always going to be a story for you. It's always going to be a sore spot where, you know, there is no fully, oh, you got over it. Right? Like, you know, it's going to be a part of your life. And I'm not mad at you. And by the way, for everybody in my chat, I get it. You know, I have a lot of people who like dirt and we are covering the dirt case.
Starting point is 00:23:37 But I told you guys, this is what I said at the beginning. We're going to have every single side represented. This is not a dirt-bashing situation. I clearly have a lot of respect. I'm doing with dirt. But. But in reality, if I, you know, this is a, this is a Chicago situation that is now turned worldwide.
Starting point is 00:24:01 If I can't platform every person within Chicago that has a, whether it's a story about Dirk or whether they could give some insight or it's, it has to be that. You know, it's not about karma. It's done about anything for me. For me, it's about having the entire story being viewed. And obviously, I know there's a lot of fans here. Again, I told you this is not the place you're going to come to for comforting lies that I could tell you like, oh, no, he's about to be out in two weeks.
Starting point is 00:24:28 That's not, you know, if it, if honestly, I sit through this trial and, you know, obviously we're going to show up to L.A. a little bit. And I come up with the opinion like, oh, no, I think he's going to be free. I'll tell you that. But we're not going to just lie and not also. Give platforms to like to not have mama duck on this call, you know, especially when the last couple of songs that had some impact for Dirk, one of them was called shoulda duck is ridiculous. Let's be honest. Right? It's ridiculous. So. And guess what? Can I say it hit me? Because we all seen the video or the world seen it. And when the hell cat pulled up. Yeah. That was a good point.
Starting point is 00:25:50 Make it make sense. Can I ask your question? So I did this interview years ago. And when I did the interview, obviously this was before a lot of things happened. This was my last interview with King Vaughn. And, you know, when I did the interview with him, he said, hey, and I remember you came out. Well, we never talked, but I know you came out. You denied it.
Starting point is 00:27:28 He said to me, and I didn't know. Just being honest, like, you know, it wasn't me being facetian. I really didn't know. He said, hey, me and, me and Vaughn, no, he said, me and Duck, we actually squashed our issues, before. You know, as years went by, I kind of realized he was being slick. When you saw that and obviously I know...
Starting point is 00:27:47 Who? And if I'm lying, I'm dead. Talk to me. King Vaughn blocks you before you die. Because I'm about doing it okay. Again, I thank you for even calling in. I want to keep, you know, shout to Remo. Your Remo's a plug. I want to keep getting your insight into this
Starting point is 00:29:52 as much as and i know i'm gonna get a little bit of flag because you know maybe whatever reason they don't like you whatever but you're as important to the story and as first party to the story as it could be you know um when it comes to bond even bond's demise when it comes to dirk what he's wrapped about and the things that he cared about uh your son clearly is one of those things that you know it's you know obviously we don't have your son here at least for me i do care about your um contribution to that so uh thank you for even coming on here and um you know we're gonna keep covering it every day but you know at any time and and by me remo thank you so much i do want to hear your input on what we're hearing because we're
Starting point is 00:30:41 hearing everything daily and a lot of stuff i didn't know maybe you know a lot more than me where maybe none of this will shock you but i'm already being shocked by a lot of things i hear to give if it will help lastly for the act. Allegedly what has happened did it show them feel better. Thank you so much. Listen, we'll get connected. I don't know how, again, it's the first week of trial. I would love to, you know, especially dig into your story. And obviously, there's a lot of cross-section and parallel
Starting point is 00:32:26 as the government tries to tell this story about Durk in this and third. And, you know, obviously, I'm glad you try to keep your son's legacy and memory alive. We would love to have you back on And, you know, we'll continue to talk about, you know, your son and what's your experience is with all these people involved in. I appreciate you. Thank you for coming on, all right? All right.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Before you're in the chat, y'all go scream that from the heart It's out on all platforms. Yeah, y'all wasn't respecting that duck. But that's how he was coming. I'm going to take that shit out. You, baby. Nice talking to you. All right, thank you.
Starting point is 00:33:10 All right, chat. Yo, chat. Your chat. We're not doing journalism. Everybody and their mama is calling in today. It's calling in today. This is, you can't find a hotter stream. We are going to use this.
Starting point is 00:33:28 This is for Chicago. This is for Chicago. You know, you know, Chicago has been really instrumental in everything I've done. As we watch, and no matter what horse you having to raise, whatever size you come out with. We can't forget and we can't ignore how important Chicago has been, from the artist to the music. And I know Dirk at least one of the time before he got arrested,
Starting point is 00:34:05 he was working on these albums almost healed. And even hearing Mama Duck, I couldn't really say much, you know, at a certain point is like, what's you going to debate with a mom that's grieving? was you going to debate with someone who's lived it you're going to debate with someone who's looked at us you can't so you know as time goes on we hope to uh you know paid for it
Starting point is 00:34:35 and I'll say that to Chicago um she paid forward Chicago is an amazing place a beautiful place whether we're talking about Dirk Chief Keith I'm talking about Kanye West these are people that come from different facets their music has been their platform and their voice
Starting point is 00:34:53 And fortunately we are at a juncture, at least with drill music and obviously with dirt, but hopefully it's a lot more to be said, right? Thank you guys for that. I know a lot of y'all are tired. We've been rocking for about five hours and 30 minutes. It's all good. If you're tired, it's okay. Drill. This is where they get tired.
Starting point is 00:35:20 They're going to click off. You know, they got to drive home. We're still rocking. Okay, we're going to get some additional updates. Don't you worry. I appreciate every and each and single one of you guys are here. And if you are watching this stream for the first time, this is what you're going to expect every day.
Starting point is 00:35:40 We're going to get everything in. Wack wants to call in, but it's not necessarily about this trial. He got some other stuff going on. We're going to get to Wack. 6-9 wanted to go do his stream or whatever. We'll see if he's on. We'll get into, we got to be. debate with 6-9 that's obviously coming up soon.
Starting point is 00:35:59 Don't you worry. Okay, he's not on yet anyway. Regardless, we are going to do our best job. And for y'all chat, please just understand from the bottom of my heart. I'm not trying to make Dirk look guilty. I'm also not trying to be on Dirk's defense squad and just make him look like an angel. If anyone wants to call up and I'm actually recruiting at this point, I need to some pro-Dirk people.
Starting point is 00:36:28 Okay? Not fans. Not gonna be like, oh, I just love Dirk. You will hear me make a couple arguments that could, you know, establish reasonable doubt that this is not cut and dry.
Starting point is 00:36:41 But I would definitely love as we get a lot of people who feel like, you know, I feel like King Yellow was just throwing, them under the bus. I feel like, 6-9, throwing them on the bus. I feel like, you know, Mama Dirk. And these are all people that are Mama Dirk.
Starting point is 00:36:54 Mama Dirk. Mama, I apologize. These people are given their understanding and their perspective, and it's all valid. I can't even say nothing. But I don't want this to be a biased one-sided stream. We're going to be here for a couple of weeks. It's probably going to be ebbs and flows.
Starting point is 00:37:12 And I do think that the Fed started all strong today. We're going to get the update on what happened later in the day. We're going to get it shortly. Everyone should be uploading their videos. But beyond that, we want to get a balanced perspective. A balanced perspective. Okay, chat. All right. Oh, my God. Okay. So going back to this video, this was Bradford Cohen. He was kind of breaking it down. He disagrees with everyone who's saying that Dirk's a snitch. Listen to him. Okay, let's talk about a little Dirk update. Here's what's
Starting point is 00:37:51 interesting about this case is the headlines today are Dirk snitches on Vani, which Me personally, I'm sure there's a lot of snitch experts out there. I've been doing this for 30 years, so I think I know a snitch or two. Did you like that, Jackson? Snitch around and find out. Snitch around and find out. Long story short is, what they're saying is, is Dirk is essentially blaming everything on Bonnie. He's essentially snitching on the snitch, which to me doesn't make any sense.
Starting point is 00:38:19 This guy, Bonnie went in. I guess he was Dirk's right-hand man. He went in and spilled his gut, said that he bought tickets. He drove around with these guys. took pictures with them, showed them where to go, bought the guns, all these other allegations that he admitted to. But he says, but Dirk made me do it. And Dirk and trial is saying, Jelano B's, thank you for 20. I see you. This is Dirk telling on Vonny, Ack. The same Dirk, that'd be having tears in his eyes telling you about how he hated snitches. And hey, I don't
Starting point is 00:38:51 know what this guy's talking about. He takes the blame for all this stuff because rightfully so, that's what he did. I didn't have anything to do with it. I didn't pay anybody. I didn't tell him to do that. That was none of my business what was going on with this guy, Vani. That's what he's saying. So in my book, that's not a snitch. But like I said, there's going to be experts out there, non-lawyers, jailhouse lawyers, all these guys that are going to say, this is what constitutes a snitch and this isn't what a snitch is. Listen, this is going to be an interesting case. This is day one, really, of real deal evidence. We're going to start seeing more and more every day, and I'll keep up with it every day. Give you guys a little report.
Starting point is 00:39:30 Thank you, Bradford. You know we need you on this on this broadcast. We love you. Bradford Cohen has also sent out a tweet. It's covered on Academics TV if you guys didn't see. But on his tweet, here we go. He says this little Dirk trial is getting more and more interesting. As a as non-lawyer and jailhouse lawyers give their opinions.
Starting point is 00:39:56 So he's basically saying the law the non-lawyers and jailhouse lawyers are giving their opinions. on the case and what constitutes stintion. He says, when someone takes a plea and admits to arrange in everything for a murder, then says, but little dirk made me do it. So he's kind of explaining what's Vani's position. Yeah, I set everything up. Of course, I'm the reason why Lil Pab is dead. That's what Vani has already admitted to.
Starting point is 00:40:23 And he's going to testify not only to that, but here's the kicker. He's going to say, not only did I set the murder, not only did I get the guns Not only did I get the fucking mask Not only did I get the gloves Not only did I get the Airbnbs Not only did I make sure from the flights I got the cars to this
Starting point is 00:40:40 After they got after they killed them I made sure I showed up to I showed up to um In and Out Burger I got these guys a double double With animal style fries After they murdered Little Pob
Starting point is 00:40:53 But you know who made me do it Dirk So that's what That's what his lawyers are saying. Bro, you basically admitted to everything. And then at the end, the last two sentences, you're like, oh, but Dirk made me do it. So the idea that Dirk is telling on him when he's completely admitted the entire crime.
Starting point is 00:41:17 And his last two sentences, but Dirk made me do it. So Dirk just not say anything about this guy? Should Dirk just be like, oh, okay, all right, you know. Oh, man. We got another one. We got a, yo, chat, this is the hottest stream we got. My guy, my guy, locked in. Hey, hey, what's happening?

Starting point is 00:46:23 I'm on thought. I look. Me and Brian just had a good talk. He's good for now. What, yo, what's the word? Okay. Should Dirk be? Is Durk in a better position today as opposed to before?
Starting point is 00:46:37 Is he down? I want to give you that super speed run up there. I'll get my super speed run. Nah. But it's all the fight. It's all about evidence right now. That's it. Right now, do it look bad?
Starting point is 00:46:47 Yeah. But there's a little more details that's showing that somebody did this shit on purpose. Yeah, niggas is dumb. What do you mean on purpose? Do you mean that somebody was knowledgeable that it would be caught and they did things purposely to make sure it looked this way. 100%. Really?
Starting point is 00:47:08 Close all that shit. Cats is dumb. And they just did some shit at the end of this shit, too, where they're like, oh, these text messages mean that cats was on as far as James' ass, but that ain't what it was. It's going to be crazy. Tomorrow going to be the most craziest day besides the verdict.
Starting point is 00:47:31 I'll give you a little. out this one thing. You see, Setti Nash is like, he's almost like a secret weapon of sorts. There's certain times I've heard him say some stuff and I'm like, where is this nigga getting this from? And I'm not going to lie. More than likely, I'll see him pop up
Starting point is 00:47:46 with some proof later. I thought you was cat by the whole young thug shit. He was really the plug. So it looked like you you're a little sneaky motherfucker. You'd be having some shit. I'm willing to pay money like they do for strippers. If I can bankroll Magic City, I can bankroll people with
Starting point is 00:48:02 info. The holes is stroking love me and a kick of diamonds love me too. So if I'm going to throw it on ass, I can throw it on some goddamn info. Hey, chat. As, you know, all these, everybody's covering this trial. Make sure you all check out, Sidi Nash. We
Starting point is 00:48:18 play. I'm about to drop some exclusive. I'm going to drop some real exclusive when I get back. Nobody else got this. You're going to do your rap for the day, right? Nah, listen. When I'm I'm about to drop, even he's going to have to react to it. All right, well, send it over to me too.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Yo, Trapp, give my number. You should have my number. Hey, yo, you are you live right now? Yeah, we live. Hold on. Hey, let me give you, I'm going to give you a really, really quick speed run summary of everything that happened. We're live with 26,000 people right now. Oh, shit, okay.
Starting point is 00:48:48 All right, so look, here's what it is. Yeah, I'll give you the very, very quick update. They did opening statements. The opening statement from the prosecution was pretty savage. They basically kind of put forward quite a lot of evidence. you know, the King Von passed away. There was a campaign to Slife for Vaughn. Everybody was trying to get revenged.
Starting point is 00:49:07 And, you know, they got all types of images of them stalking Kwondo Rondo all around the country. They got still images of the time they tried to kill Kondo in 2021, which that had never been seen before. They had four K footage of the murder of Lil Pab from multiple angles, angles that had never been seen before. And it was pretty shocking. It was everything you expect. But like the feds really had a lot of evidence. They crossed their teeth, dot their eyes. bunch of stuff stacked up. And when Dirk's defense came back, everyone was flawed because
Starting point is 00:49:33 his whole defense was basically blaming everything on Vonnie. No disrespect. I think people are really upset that I'm saying that. But the whole argument that they made, bear in mind, all the way through kind of Dirk's, all the way through the prosecution, they were showing different pictures, videos, clips, screenshots, a whole bunch of different stuff telling a story. But when the defense talked, they damn near spent most of their introductions just showing two pictures side by side, a picture of King Vonn and a picture of Vonn. And they basically said Voni was nicknamed Cuzz because he was King Vonn's cousin. His whole identity was based around him being Vonn's cousin.
Starting point is 00:50:06 He was Cuzz. He was Vonnie. He was the other Vonn. He loved Vonn. He was having shared bank accounts with Vonn. He was closer to Vond than anyone, including Dirk. And they basically saying it was Vonnie that drove the Hellcat from... He helped King Vonn in his arms.
Starting point is 00:50:23 And Vonn said to him, why do you let him shoot me? They're saying that Vonnie was the one that wanted to slide and get revenge. They said it was all Vonnie. Dirk can't have nothing to do with nothing. Vonny admitted that he's involved. He's participating witness. He's trying to throw Dirk under the bus. And they're saying that Voni had all the motivation to Slyt for Vonn.
Starting point is 00:50:39 And it was a whole Slyde for Von mission on his own. So, that's the defense. Let me ask you a question. And as you guys report on this, just a slight, just a slight, you know, advice. I'm glad you always have the details. One thing I want you to add in is what the demeanor. of maybe Dirk, his defense team, or the people in the gallery is, if you could tell. So when that was being told that we're blaming it on Bonnie, what's everybody's reaction?
Starting point is 00:51:12 Is everyone like, what the fuck? Because this is kind of shocking to us. Like, wait, this is the master plan to blame it on Bonnie? All right, I'll be real with you. And I know everyone's going to like this. A lot of things I'm going to say people aren't going to like. But like the reality is, I feel like when the prosecution were making their argument, I thought Dirk looked stressed. He looked
Starting point is 00:51:31 kind of irritated. He looked like he wasn't feeling it. Obviously, he's been accused of horrendous crimes with what looks like, very compelling evidence. However, when he's a lawyer... Were you in the main courtroom? Yeah, back in the main courtroom. Yeah, I was right there, you know, I could see Dirk. So you could see Dirk the entire seconds. Oh shit, you could see Dirk the entire time. Dirk could see me, fool? Well, okay, so was he smiling? Is he, is he like blowing kisses to India? He locked in. He looked in. He looked at.
Starting point is 00:51:59 He looks serious. He's not laughing and smiling like he was at some of the earlier hearings. I think India was there, but I didn't see her. There was a lot going on. Machine Gun Kelly was there. I see him. Machine Gun. Bray was there, bro. What the fuck? They was letting MGK in before the media. I was thinking, what the hell? Yeah, MGK was there, man. Real shit. He was there randomly. I was just like, the fuck MGK doing here. You know what I'm saying? Listen, MGK, machine gun turning up to a troll where they're alleged a machine gun was used. This is crazy on its own. But basically, I would say Dirk looked pretty stressed out, but when his argument was being made, when he was putting it on Voni, I don't, I'm going to lie, he looked like he was confident. He looked slick. He looked like he was dropping a bomb on everybody, and that's how it felt. I feel like everyone in the courtroom was just like, damn, like, you're really putting this on Voney? That shit's crazy. And then I asked about, I mean, we heard harrowing footage. Did it sound believable? Well, this is the problem. I know too much, so I was listening thinking, this is a whole lot of cap. But I know the story so well, the idea.
Starting point is 00:53:00 The idea that it was all Vonny and Dirk didn't know nothing And he on here talking about green light, got location, go, look at your sony on, news screaming, no, no, no, I'm not buying that he just happened to accidentally write loads of lyrics. He hopped on a song with 21 Savage talking about, he said, no, I said, let's go to war about it. Where'd he go? I bet you know the more got him.
Starting point is 00:53:19 I'm thinking, what, Vonny write that shit for you too? Like, I'm not buying it, but I know too much. So I feel like if the jury buy it, then he could win. but it all depends on how much they're going to be able to obliterate Vony when he gets on the stand. Okay, so, and this is going to be important. Obviously, I know you're in court, so we can't talk too much about the jury, but I'm pretty sure you've looked at the jurors. It sounds like they threw some big, heavyweight shit.
Starting point is 00:53:45 If they're showing autopsy the first day, do you think that they look horrified? They look shocked? What's the jury's disposition or even facial expression to this shit? Are they shocked? I'll be real. I'll be real. I'm not going to make any comment on the jury. I don't think it would be the proper thing to do. But listen, let me call you back in a sec, because I'm about to get moved on from where I'm at. But I'm going to holler at you in a little bit for an update, okay?
Starting point is 00:54:06 All right, man. Oh, shit. Yeah, we kind of want to know what the jury's kind of feeling. Like, are they like, what the fuck? Like, yo, is that a dead body? You know what I mean? Like, yo, what's the name when that show would be like, you want to see a dead body? Like, we got to see how they're kind of reacting to this stuff. Like, remember, the way the prosecutor and the prosecutor and, the government is putting this on,
Starting point is 00:54:32 they're kind of like trying to shock the view in public and the jurors to be like, yeah, we're not going to wait until X, Y, and Z to show you the gruesome graphic stuff. We want you to know that this is murder. This is murder for hire and someone died. And if you got to see a bullet stuck in their heart
Starting point is 00:54:52 for you to believe it, here it is. Yeah, he can't speak too much on certain things. And if he can't, it's fine. Damn, y'all. Damn, damn, damn. Fuck. Will the Vonny did it? Defense work, y'all.
Starting point is 00:55:20 Vonny did it, right? Vonny did it. He's about to make a few videos, I believe. Oh, never mind. He's already, is he? No, no, never mind. No, no, mind. He didn't put this other videos up.
Starting point is 00:55:38 Maybe lawyer for workers. Is he cooking yet? Lawyer for workers. There's a lot of hardworking independent journalists out there. I know my boy Armand is out there. My mom was cracking. And did not. I see you.
Starting point is 00:55:51 Yo, my guy, don't worry. Listen, I appreciate you guys all for being out there. With all, you know, hopefully y'all don't find me using your content. Or, you know, whether I've seen you say something and I try to highlight it, I want to make sure I'm kicking back credit to you and also try to help your platform. So all you guys, like, trust me, it's very appreciated. You know, from when I was covering either the Tory trial and other trials, even if you don't agree with maybe even my personal opinion is very important what you guys are doing.
Starting point is 00:56:24 I honestly and solemnly believe you guys are the real journalist of this game because you guys are putting your life on a line and I know people might be like, all right, I'm trying to trip. But again, this is places where they're claiming the killers is at. Like, shit, you know, duty lower them is out there. Like the actual OTF niggins that's not free or that is free big duty low they're outside of that courtroom and yes duty low is outside that courtroom right they're rocking that's chucky as well shout to chucky but they're out there
Starting point is 00:57:00 with the free dirks show what are we outside yeah now i you know again going back from my rant from earlier love that you guys are out there supporting dirk please don't harass other people that might maybe they're not pro-Dirk or maybe they're just random bystanders it's the best way you can support Dirk by not being a nuisance don't interrupt don't try to cause problems and please do not fight out there please okay all right so duty low is out there chucky's out there by the way both are signed to OTF you know that they're waiting for or hoping for a favorable outcome for Smirkio man this is this is one of those huh Oh boy
Starting point is 00:57:56 This is one of those Okay Okay Is Well we got all these already Is there any updates That we have missed We want to get to
Starting point is 00:58:10 Like everyone's making updates now We're going to get to it Don't you worry Could we get some updates And by the way I would call duty low But with all due respect For what Dirk is going through
Starting point is 00:58:21 I don't even want to put him on That he can say nothing that maybe someone's like, oh, he said something wrong, and they're like, why'd you even put him on? So I'll play videos like that for Dutley Lowe, but I don't want to interview him. I don't want to talk to him necessarily. You know, if he does want to put out a message, make it rehearsed,
Starting point is 00:58:42 just say free Dirk or something. I'll post it up. It's all good. But I don't want to have you on here when I'm asking you questions and you say anything wrong. Okay? Just being honest, right? So duty low.
Starting point is 00:58:56 I see you. Love you. I'm glad you out there supporting your friend, most importantly, and your CEO. Chuckie, glad you're out there too. And it's important that you guys are showing that you're not scared of showing up to the federal building to support your friend because your friend did nothing wrong. I don't think it's necessary for me to call you guys to have you guys speak and anyone look at whatever you might be saying as like an official spokesperson. I don't think that's necessary. So if you guys pose videos, I'll showcase your videos, okay?
Starting point is 00:59:29 Showcase your videos. All right, all right, all right. Hypno Carlito. Hipno Carlito, Instagram. What did he say? Why ever happen to Hypno Carlito? It's a good day to stay a sucker for him. I don't know where he's at.
Starting point is 00:59:49 He's definitely not in Los Angeles. I think. Okay, all right. Here he goes. he did post Dirk and he says odds against you Shorty but this ain't the first time chin up and chest out you coming home chat has other rappers kind of like posted just to show that support hey man I need the best
Starting point is 01:00:15 Caitlin Clark post doc has smirk in seven we could only hope what about all these other rappers that Dirk supported while they were locked up we had Dirk on my damn interview about a cry, talking about I can't fuck with Gunner. I love Thug so much. Has Thug posted?
Starting point is 01:00:45 Now, I'm not saying if he didn't post, he's not a real nigga. Because apparently, I think he might be, like, contributing a little bit to Dirk's, like, situation in terms of lawyers and stuff. Just trying to see if, you know, everybody's paying attention.
Starting point is 01:01:01 When, when, I'll say this, when young Thug went on trial, entire hip-hop stopped. The entire hip-hop stopped. everybody said free free um thug uh i'm gonna be honest with y'all all y'all rappers who used to be kicking it with him
Starting point is 01:01:17 begging him for features he did this with y'all i expect the same thing i'm sorry i you know unfortunately these days you gotta call niggas out for some support you know let me see i'm pretty sure young thug will do it though i'm pretty sure you will i'm pretty sure you will but i i think
Starting point is 01:01:36 every rapper who fucks with um dirk needs to put up something, at least standing in solidarity, help convince, you know, and galvanize the fans to be really tapped into what's going on here. Obviously, not on some, like, encouraged fans to be toxic or, you know, detrimental. But I do think it mattered a lot when for Thug, it was seen like the entire hip-hop wanted him home. The entire culture wanted him home. And I'm going to be honest with y'all. If I don't see y'all niggas do that for a smirk, y'all niggins get some fake-ass niggins, man.
Starting point is 01:02:17 Just straight up and down, bro. Just straight up and down. Do you Herbo win the court? My nigger. My fucking nigger, bro. My fucking nigger, bro. My fucking nigger. He posted this.
Starting point is 01:02:35 What's this? There we go. He posted, come in peace 3.30 p.m. to support Lil Durk during his trial. Everybody's welcome. We appreciate the support. He said, free smirk. Shots. Yo, Herbo, love you for that.
Starting point is 01:02:47 Shout to you, nigga. DJ bands. I'm gonna click on your shit in a second. I don't know if bands is at the trial or whatever, but, you know, I wouldn't hold it against the guys if they're not there. You got to remember, like, the fans, this is their chance and opportunity to try to get Dirk. They're trying to get him by any means necessary. And, you know, obviously they want to get him, any of their guys.
Starting point is 01:03:21 So if they don't show up, I wouldn't believe it's lack of loyalty. I would believe, moreover, it's just not wanting to be in the way when there's so much going on. If I wanted my snake, what? Nobody would be shocked because I've been solid with too many y'all. Niggies don't took from my cause forever. I gave niggies a close off my back, my money when I was low myself. I gave everything I done did for y'all. So when I say, when I get to saying fuck niggas
Starting point is 01:04:05 And I start giving that same energy back to everybody Molluckers better not be surprised Mugger's could die today and all my mama I wouldn't give two fucks All of that righteous shit is over with for me And I don't give a fuck how nobody else feel I would advise everybody to stay away from me Don't call me don't check it on me
Starting point is 01:04:23 None of that I don't fuck with nobody Man They're wishing him happy birthday But it's damn today's his birthday The day when Dirt's trials Start. It's fucked up. This is a little Dirk's DJ if you don't know.
Starting point is 01:05:14 Shout to bands. I know he's incredibly hurt going through all this. Shout to him. Herbo, you're a real ass nigger, man. Herbo, you be not, that means a lot, gang. I can't even allow to you, man. Oh, there's a video of it. Okay, my bad.
Starting point is 01:05:57 I didn't know that was a video. Okay, here's a video. Okay, here's a video supposed to Dirk here. So G. Herbo pulls up to the courthouse to support Dirk for his trial. Says duty load. This is, uh, G Herb.
Starting point is 01:06:21 I just see Traplor Ross. No, that's not Traplore right there. Oh, Citi Nash right here. Ooh, that's Papa Durk. Dutty Low. Papa Dirk, Dutley Low. Were they called? Now, Traplor's name?
Starting point is 01:07:38 Is this now? Interesting to me, like, to me, like, Dirk is just such a huge figure. Bro, there's no traditional media out here. This is fans and independent journalists and some real names. Like, I'm surprised. ABC News ain't out here.
Starting point is 01:08:14 Like CBS not out here. You know, Sky News from overseas. That's kind of interesting. Wow. And by the way, to Dirk's guys, even dutelo, bro, you know, you know, we all, we all love you. But please don't make it a situation. Don't make it about you. For everybody, don't make it about you.
Starting point is 01:08:49 So even if you disagree with how. Traplores reported the situation or whatever. Please don't go to that court and make it about you. You're making it about you if you get into it with Traplore Ross. Please don't do it. Law for Workers has an update. We're going to go to that. Apparently the rental company, which again, I thought it was about hot cars and like basically stolen cars.
Starting point is 01:09:50 You don't go get a rental car for the murder, right? I think, right? Anyway, here we go. We have some updates. And this update is coming from Lord for workers. Here we go. Up date. Opening statements were done.
Starting point is 01:10:04 Let's get you caught up on the witness testimony. We had four witnesses complete their testimony. One witness is still testifying. OTF Jam will be testifying tomorrow. There was an important evidentiary dispute about some of the texts allegedly between and Dirk. We'll get into that. First, let's get into the testimony.
Starting point is 01:10:21 The way to understand the testimony is two parts. First, they covered all the people who could tell you the uncontested facts about this gruesome murder. The 911 call, the crime scene investigation unit, the coroner, the first officer on the scene. And it all established, you know, the 911 call came in, woman crying, oh my God, oh my God, there's some shooting. They ran into the alleyway, don't give my name, click. Then there was the first officer on the scene.
Starting point is 01:10:49 A pedestrian flagged him said, hey, there's a car shot up. There's a guy that looks like he's in the car laying there. The officer went to the car, tried to pull him out. You see Cuando in the body cam footage yelling, no, the officers doing their best. They cannot revive the young man. You saw the crime scene investigation unit detective, and he explained the bullet fragments and casings and everything that was picked up at the scene. There was like 16 to 20 shots fired at this escalade while it was pumping gas at a gas station. And then there was the coroner.
Starting point is 01:11:17 And the coroner showed the pictures of the autopsy and the bullet holes inside this young man's body. At that moment, it became absolutely clear that the narratives and the. And all the gossip and drama surrounding this case is really irrelevant. This case is about a cold-blooded murder. This case will be determined by evidence. Then we got into the lead detective, the detective who was in charge of building the case. And when you see his testimony,
Starting point is 01:11:42 you understand why there are cooperators, not informants. People didn't inform on what they know about what happened. There are people who were guilty as hell, who then admitted their guilt in the hopes of getting a lesser sentence by pinning it on other people. And so you can, see their guilt i mean this cop they they first they had the surveillance so the surveillance they picked up on
Starting point is 01:12:01 this guy's pants and his pants had a very distinctive set of patches and tears in it that spelled out rags to riches that connected back to a chicago clothing boutique only place you could have got that once they made the connection to chicago they started sharing some of the surveillance and some of the still images of the people that they had caught on camera which chicago pd Chicago PD identifies some of these people as OTF affiliated. Then they get onto the rental car. Apparently, OTIF Vani rented a car from an exotic rental company in Las Vegas, a BMW M5. He used that car thoroughly while stalking and being right there at the scene of this murder.
Starting point is 01:12:40 That rental car gave them all the information they needed. I mean, it gave them tons and tons of info. GPS coordinates, this and that. How did this all stack up to Dirk Banks? Well, look, when you follow the detective's testimony, it's unquestionable that the people who have cooperated were in the car, were there, we're shooting. You see them on KF Jam.
Starting point is 01:13:01 We'll be testifying tomorrow. There was an important evidence. Follow video. The car gave them all the information they needed. I mean, it gave them tons and tons of info. GPS coordinates, this and that. How did this all stack up to Dirk Banks? Well, look, when you follow the detective's testimony,
Starting point is 01:13:19 Tony, it's unquestionable that the people who have cooperated were in the car, we're there, we're shooting. You see them on camera. How does it connect to banks today as far as they got? The only real connection they could make is that banks had been staying at a home that they rented for almost $40,000 a month for long before this murder happened. He's been out there for a couple months. He had planned to be there for a while. Then they've got OTF Bonnie's rental cars, GPS coordinates showing that he would go to that house back and forth. Now, what was said in that house, did it have anything to do with the murder conspiracy? We haven't gotten there yet. So what they've done, what they've established, uncontested facts about the murder, uncontested,
Starting point is 01:13:59 that Vani and some of these other cooperators did this. You could see it on camera. And uncontested that Vani's rental car was at this home occupied by Dirk Banks. There was a narrative out there. I heard that, oh, Dirk had flown out to L.A. at the time of, no, he was already in L.A. He was based in L.A. He was operating out of L.A. like many entertainers do with the rental home and his wife and his kids all staying there with him.
Starting point is 01:14:23 So all in all, a good day for Dirk. It's not anywhere where he was really hurt. I thought actually the one part, the investigator tried to put a line and a thought into the jury's head. He said, oh, as you can see from these videos, you see Otef Vani and you see Little Dirk and they're at all these. Now, oh my God, fuck. We're going to have the place over. Now, I love Moe, but I will do. tell you what you know I always say let's talk let's present our biases I do like
Starting point is 01:14:54 dirk and there's probably a little bit of bias for me with dirk even though apparently the the dirt fans kind of like they're kind of mad at me because they're like oh why are you saying this other stuff but I will say when we're playing most videos he's a lawyer and he's I believe already starting to practice like defense defense lawyers shit when we play lawyers is there are defense attorneys, they don't be like, oh, niggas, it's cooked. They'll never say that. What they'll say is ways you could get out of it. They're a defense attorney.
Starting point is 01:15:25 That's how they're mine things. Bradford Cohen is not going to say, oh, shit, I just heard that. He's cooked. You know why he's not going to say that? Why would you ever hire the guy who, when faced with some mountains of evidence, he's like, oh, you're cooked. You don't want that guy, right? So Bradford Cohen is always going to look at the other side.
Starting point is 01:15:43 And I expect the same for most. he's going to look at the other side. So just let you know, we're going to have to balance. And by the way, they might be right. Not saying they're not right. They could be right. But we've got to balance what they're going to say
Starting point is 01:15:55 with what other people are going to say, including the, the journalist, the independent journalists who are there and like doing their stuff. Okay? Let's go back. Sorry, I got to play this video again. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:16:09 The car gave them all the information they needed. I mean, it gave them tons and tons of info. GPS coordinates, this and that. How did this all stack up to Dirk Banks? Well, look, when you follow the detective's testimony, it's unquestionable that the people who have cooperated were in the car, were there, we're shooting, you see them on camera. How does it connect to banks today as far as they got? The only real connection they could make is that banks had been staying at a home that they rented for almost $40,000 a month for long before this murder happened. He's been out there for a couple months he had planned to be there for a while. Then they've got OTF Vani's rental car's GPS
Starting point is 01:16:48 coordinates showing that he would go to that house back and forth. Now, what was said in that house, did it have anything to do with the murder conspiracy? We haven't gotten there yet. So what they've done, what they've established, uncontested facts about the murder, uncontested that Vani and some of these other cooperators did this. You could see it on camera. And uncontested that Vani's rental car was at this home occupied by Dirk Banks. That, that, There was a narrative out there I heard that, oh, Dirk had flown out to L.A. At the time of, no, he was already in L.A. He was based in L.A.
Starting point is 01:17:19 He was operating out of L.A. Like many entertainers do with the rental home and his wife and his kids all staying there with him. So all in all, a good day for Dirk. It's not anywhere where he was really hurt. I thought actually the one part, the investigator tried to put a line and a thought into the jury's head. He said, oh, as you can see from these videos, you see OTF Vani and you see little Dirk and they're at all these jewelry stores and he's his assistant. You can see is negotiating jewelry transactions for him. And then Brian Steeleastery said objection. That's speculation. Where's he coming
Starting point is 01:17:53 from? He just saw a YouTube video where the guys in a jewelry store together. How is he negotiating transactions on behalf of Little Dirk? The objection was sustained. That means that the testimony was not allowed as to that point. Where does that leave us? Well, OTF Jam will be testifying tomorrow. We'll get the rest of the lead investigator's testimony to see if he can build further links dirt banks and ultimately we're going to get OTI Avani's testimony probably Wednesday maybe Thursday of this week stay tuned so car gave them wow the the fizz are coming with the heavy hitters quickly they're not trying to slow roll this they're not be like hey let let let's no they're coming
Starting point is 01:18:34 heavy with this okay all right so the rental car gave them supposedly all the info they needed. I did see someone post that, no, it was Traplor Ross. I should ask him about it when we had him on the phone. He actually responded by saying, what he said? Oh, wow. All the hitmen's flights were booked on Dirk's Amex account. He spent $150,000 in that month, including $3,000 at Neiman's and 6,700 in Amiri. All the hitmen who killed Pop changed their shirts, but not their not their shoes.
Starting point is 01:19:20 All went to In-N-Out Burger in the same shoes they did the murdering. Looked like Jordans, black, red, and gray. They said, Vani really camped out at Cuando's Hotel till 1 a.m. the night before the murder and took the car back to Dirk's crib after leaving. somebody said well trap lawyer says
Starting point is 01:19:45 Dirk really took a selfie with the guy who rented the slider car You might have to take a fucking selfie with the the nigga who got the slider though I can't knock at that Sometimes you gotta take a picture with the nigger The sliders still You film me?
Starting point is 01:20:14 That's insane Okay, Setti Nash We're waiting on you, Crotie All y'all are out there Armand is there too I don't know why Armand's not kicking up some Okay here we go Five minutes later okay here we go
Starting point is 01:20:30 It's Sedi Nash y'all You all ready? Y'all screen recording? Y'all ready? A Trappler Ross said is bullshit. A Trappler Ross said is bullshit. That's not what happened at all. Let me help y'all out.
Starting point is 01:21:12 Oh, yeah. If Lord Dirk... Oh, they about to kill Trappler O'Ros had that goddamn courthouse. Because you got to remember, everyone's going... Traplor Ross is probably one of the most popular guys out there. If he said, oh, Dirk just blamed on someone else. So everyone's going off what Traplore Ross said,
Starting point is 01:21:28 and they're then claiming Dirk is snitching. Them OTF niggins that's going out there, trust me, they might be down to catch another RICO over Dirk's reputation because even if Dirk goes to jail for life, Dirk's reputation of being a stand-up nigger, a nigga who slid, stood on business, got niggas whacked. I know that might send him the jail, but that reputation is going to make sure all of them,
Starting point is 01:21:54 these OTF niggas, they could still claim OTF after. Yeah, yeah. Dirk's, we don't get that shit back on appeal like, yo, Dirk's a real nigga, he's still tall. If Trap Lord Ross comes out and gives info and now people are running with a narrative that he told, that erupts and erases everything. So I'm telling you, by the way, trap,
Starting point is 01:22:16 I'm going to talk to you probably privately about it, but you got them OTF niggas out there. You got certain niggas out there. I don't want them, like, I know you got security, but, nigga, you could tell these niggas, they're trying to bull. bully the situation. I don't want him to kill your ass.
Starting point is 01:22:31 Would have snitched on OTF Bonnie and said he was the one who did all that. That would mean little dirt had knowledge of it. That's how that works. If me and you are doing something, you get caught, I get caught. I get caught. You turn on me and I say I knew nothing about it. The worst thing that I could do is literally say, well, he did this, this, this, and this, but I didn't know about it. So logically, that don't even make sense.
Starting point is 01:23:09 And 6'9, shut your bitch ass up. Oh, shit. Fuck is you talking about. Ain't nobody crash out because of you weirdo. Oh, shit. But you better go find a stream to do something. You better go do a 20V1 or something. Hell is you talking about.
Starting point is 01:23:23 I'm not going to call trap lord trash, but what I will say is his interpret. is very, very off. That ain't what happened. Okay, okay, okay. So we're going to break it down a little bit more, but Dirk ain't snitch. That ain't, if, understand this, snitches still go to jail. Snitches still go to jail by the way. And all you Instagram sites that's only posting Trappler Ross, but we follow each other
Starting point is 01:23:55 and y'all claim to be cool with me? No, y'all are not. Y'all just showed me your hands. I ain't in no competition with a YouTube or Instagram. All right, Grant. Grand, let's get some SETI Nash of them before he started being with us, nigger. Grand. Grant, let's throw up some SETI Nash.
Starting point is 01:24:14 Armand is always good with us. You know, Armand, I really love Armand coverage all the time. Armand is always good. Who else? Who else? Who else? Setti, Armand. Do not.
Starting point is 01:24:25 You know, fuck anything else going on in hip-up. pop. Charlemagne, you've gotten a three-week break. Charlemagne, you've gotten a three-week break, brother. Okay? You and Alex Media and Taylor and Lauren La Rosa could keep posting on inverse wire. Unfortunately, y'all not that important no more this week. Okay?
Starting point is 01:24:49 So we're giving you a pass. Keep posting. We don't care. So y'all got the pass. So we're all locked in on Dirk. So, Grant, what we're doing, we're highlighting all. All of our compadres, our counterparts, independent media who's covering this trial,
Starting point is 01:25:05 even if it's, you know, maybe not the most positive thing about Dirk, we got to show love to all of them. Again, what, what, what, was Charlemagne and them other niggas wouldn't do, I'm going to hold it down for my new media niggas, okay? New media, look at me and hold me accountable for what Charlemagne won't do. Shawlameen has turned to a liar. He's down to just whatever, get close.
Starting point is 01:25:29 to Jay-Z, I'm here to make sure everybody who's in new media, let's all come up. Okay? And we got, you know, maybe one of the biggest platforms. We're, we're not jealous. We not whatever. We want to show everybody love. So, um, grand.
Starting point is 01:25:45 Remember, starting tomorrow. We need everybody's, you know, at least throw up a video here, video there. Everybody got to get some love. We're showing everybody love. Trust me. Remember, a TikToker, a Twitter, none of that shit. If y'all watching this, a screen, Gordon and you want to use this, use it.
Starting point is 01:26:02 Get your money. Get your money. But that whole little dirt is a snitch day. That's not even true. Okay. See, what the opening statement said was, if you look at the evidence, you won't see anything tied to a little dirt. You won't see shit tied to little dirt. That's what was said.
Starting point is 01:26:26 So when Vonny points this out, little dirt is. ain't tied to it when I'm not even tied to this if I'm combating what you're saying in zero way is that snitching the hell is going on here vani said a whole bunch of shit vani said I got sliders I got the guns I got the scheme acts I got all that vani said he said all that all dirt people said was we ain't tied to none of this that's not snitching to say I'm not tied to whatever he told you. Imagine somebody told on you and you said, bro, that's not even true.
Starting point is 01:27:06 Where was I had in any of this? And anybody come back and say you a snitch. Nicker, what? Y'all make sure y'all follow the channel Settie Nash on YouTube, man. I'm gonna break it down even further. I just had to clear that up. Okay.
Starting point is 01:27:34 Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. All right, so we got that. Apparently Trapp Lord did also post. Where the fuck is Armand? Do I got Armano number? Let me call Armand. That was Armand I seen back there. Let me just call this thing real quick.
Starting point is 01:28:08 I rock with Armand. When he started getting his bag, that boy could. That boy, that boy is a yapper. I like yackers. I like the yappers. Your call has been... Armand, man. Get back to me, gang.
Starting point is 01:28:21 All right, cool. Okay, Trap got a new video. Let's go to Donop real quick before. We showed everybody love, Tats. We're showing everybody love I promise you. We're showing everybody love. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 01:28:35 Is it this? No, no, okay. Then not. As soon as you put your shit up, we're going to react to that too. We're going to react to that too. Don't you worry about it. Everybody got to have their perspective.
Starting point is 01:28:46 Only thing I'm going to tell you out, do not jump my boy trap lower. He has his own opinion, his own POV. Do not bully him out there. Don't bully him. Especially I'm now starting to see them some OTF niggas.
Starting point is 01:28:58 They're going to want to start to bullying shit. not saying they will, but I'm saying, leave the trap lower low. Okay, so one of the craziest things that we heard in court today really blew my mind. There is a whole bunch of evidence when it comes to these stalking charges and Lil Durk. Now, I could not believe this, okay, but a lot of stuff is being tied around this BMW that apparently Voni was driving around to various locations. What is so insane is that they're saying Dirk had a house in Los Angeles.
Starting point is 01:29:22 They're saying that Dirk basically was like, you know, he was living in a house in Los Angeles, $35,000 a month crib that he had for a certain period. at a time. Voni was his assistant. Apparently they they basically had the BMW already rented from some exotic car rental place and Voni was driving the car around. He had driven the car, left it at... Okay, so let's let's go back. Cars, little pub stalking. Hopefully we could see that's that classic image. Oh, here's the BMW. Oh my God. Oh, my God. Oh, Oh, my sweet Jesus, y'all. Oh, my sweet Jesus, this right here.
Starting point is 01:30:07 So these niggis while in Chicago, they're told my, get a hot car for this, get a hot car, hot car, striker, a slater, all of that shit. They go to California and go to the exotic rental place. Now, this is supposedly what the government's trying to say. They're trying to say these guys are just stupid. So if you don't realize, they had a tracker car. The tracker car was the car that's actually,
Starting point is 01:30:32 a legit car. Like, it's not fake plates. It's real. This car. This infinity here, that's the murder car. So the shooters that pull up to kill, they're in here.
Starting point is 01:30:44 This car is to keep the location, keep the eye on a prize. Cuando and them is in this car. So you got this car, legit, just to kind of like, I bet they hit it right, whatever,
Starting point is 01:30:56 but they're probably talking on walkie, not walking, but calling them or texting them, yo, turn off on this street. Yo, here's our location. They get the location. Yo, just follow us. We kind of trailing them and whatever, right?
Starting point is 01:31:08 Now, look at this. Gas station, little pop, little pop. There's going to be more. We got to go back to the indictment to see. It's going to show where the guys look. So in here, you see the Cadillac. The Cadillac is right here. We got to show where the car, because,
Starting point is 01:31:28 so the car that pulled up to kill the car with the killers pulled up in the alleyway. Okay? The car with the killers pull up in the alleyway. All right. So let me pull that up. Gas station, little pub shooting. I think we had, oh, by the way, look.
Starting point is 01:31:52 God damn, look, you can see the damage right here. It's crazy, huh? Damn, they, these niggas was kind of accurate. Them niggas hit with the switch. No, no, actually. Oh, yeah. These things hit with the switch, but they went. straight through the window.
Starting point is 01:32:05 They ain't even hit the door that much. And he was with a switch. Yeah, these things is kind of not that bad. Olle. Was this? That's not that right. No, no, that's Philadelphia. Okay.
Starting point is 01:32:18 Could we get the, uh, little pop thingy? We want to show a little pop and, uh, let's see, Cuando. Quando Rondo. We're trying to get the other pictures. The other pictures are going to show that there was a white BMW in the alleyway. Where is the white BMW? Remember.
Starting point is 01:32:36 Not white BMW, white infinity. So the white infinity had the shooters whole time. Whole time they had the shooters. The white infinity had the shooters. So they were using the white BMW. That's a legit car with GPS. They were using that as like a tail car. Okay?
Starting point is 01:32:52 And I'm guessing when they seen, they probably was loosely following that car. When they seen that car park, they probably hit them, it's like, yo, they're at the gas station. They'll go kill them, niggas. We're going to keep driving.
Starting point is 01:33:02 You go kill them because it will look pretty odd if there was a car kind of following them, following them. They stopped, the car stopped. So it looked like Vani and them is in that white BMW, but they never stopped. They were driving behind the car waiting for it to stop. It stops at the gas station. They tell the other car,
Starting point is 01:33:19 yo, they're in a gas station right now. All right, we won't keep driving. They come a couple seconds or a couple minutes later. They see the fucking car. Somebody pumping gas. That's how it go down. That's how it went down. That's how it went down.
Starting point is 01:33:36 That's how it went down. We might have to watch this video. Is it this? For 90 days Or 1.9%. Alright my naga, come on, bro. Come on, bro. Attorney Jasmine on the check-in.
Starting point is 01:34:23 Shout to Attorney Jasmine, y'all. We are locked in. We might get Attorney Jasmine in here. Attorney Jasmine. Okay, so we've seen that part. Oh, that's all the extent of the video. Never mind. We're just going to not even.
Starting point is 01:34:40 But there's more surveillance video that shows the white, low pop, white, Infinity. The white infinity. Oh, little pop shit. You can't even find nothing here. A little pub.
Starting point is 01:34:59 Gas station. White infinity. There's one, it was used in one of the indictments. So, yeah, the shooters come out here, but the white infinity is parked to the right behind them. It's parked to the right behind them. I might have to look at the initial indictment. Okay, okay, here we go.
Starting point is 01:35:22 Here we go. Oh, all right, here we go. I remember seeing the white infinity. Okay, that's not using, okay. Give me one second. Dirk all day. I'm going to pull up the indictment in, like, I'm going to show you where the white infinity is.
Starting point is 01:35:40 The BMW never stopped. So Vani and then were supposedly in the BMW, Vani and Didi. Allegedly, they never stopped. They were trailing Kondo, and then they gave the call or they said, yo, get him over there. And then they dipped.
Starting point is 01:35:53 there was four people in the car they pulled up three hopped out there's a nigga that stayed in the car there's one nigga who stayed in the car this is the indictment let's look at the pictures they're gonna have some pictures in this okay see all right so cool
Starting point is 01:36:12 BMW this is from which by the way is crazy y'all in Chicago using hot cars and now y'all you use y'all exotic car dealer car to do the trailing now granted no shooters hop out from it but you gotta imagine
Starting point is 01:36:27 you did this a block away from the Beverly Center. That's doing it like basically in Times Square. They're going to follow the car of Cuando Rondo all the way back from the hotel. You know what they notice? There's a BMW who's kind of loosely following it. Now, Cuano Rano and them was probably too drunk, too high, they don't give a fuck.
Starting point is 01:36:53 They're not realizing there's a car trailing them. This car is not where the murderers is in. Apparently, Vani, apparently Didi, and then we're in it, so this is to drop the low, to keep, okay, we know what's going on. The murderers were always back here. Remember, they're turning on the street. The murderers are back here. Let's see if we can find, okay, here's a Cadillac.
Starting point is 01:37:19 They're running out over here. Okay, I thought there was another picture. Am I tripping? No other picture? Maybe not. Okay, I might be tripping on that one. I might be tripping on that one. Let me try to figure out.
Starting point is 01:37:31 That's the first indictment. Let's see the Dirk complaint. The Dirk complaint. The Dirk complaint. We're just looking for the pictures. Okay, there was no pictures there. Superseding. Maybe it's a superseded one.
Starting point is 01:37:51 Okay, that has that picture. Has that picture? I thought there was a picture of the white vehicle in the alley. I might be tripping on that then. It's all good. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. It's all good. Dirk arraignment.
Starting point is 01:38:04 No, no, no, no. Let's see. Dirk detention. No, no, no, no. Order continuing. Nope, nope, no, no, no, no. Reconsideration for detention. It could be one of these, but like, I'm not going to click on every single one.
Starting point is 01:38:16 Second superseded. Maybe it's in the second superseded. Okay. We're going to see the same picture again. Okay. Then we're going to see this picture again. Yeah, look like there's no. no thing. We could look at third superseding.
Starting point is 01:38:34 By the way, there's four supersedents. Third superseding. Where is that third superseding? We're going to find it soon. Third superseding. Okay. I think the picture with that infinity was, because apparently the guy,
Starting point is 01:38:57 Asa Houston or something like, I think he was a driver. I can't remember what it was. He was a driver. Oh, should have a server. Oh. fourth supersedeer right here but I don't think it has two pictures okay this is
Starting point is 01:39:23 who is this oh this is Mike from AJ City this is not supposed to be in it not in the fourth one in a fourth one it's supposed to be in the third not the fourth because there's not a fifth one
Starting point is 01:39:42 anyway let's look at this shit all right third and then okay we got a pitcher there picture there a picture there picture there No more pictures.
Starting point is 01:39:53 Maybe I was tripping. Or maybe it was in one of these motions to, it would be a motion by the government if it was going to be. Anyway, all right, cool. Fuck it. The point is the BMW kept the BMW kept the the location and gave it to the other guys. Let's get back to Trappler, Ross. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:40:18 Dirk's house. They went to Miami for a day right before all of the hitmen came to town on the 18th. They're saying that, oh, okay, that's kind of interesting. So I was thinking that Dirk was just in Miami, and he randomly just wanted to go to L.A. They were saying Dirk went to Miami for a day. So that's important. So he could reasonably, like, argue like,
Starting point is 01:40:38 oh, the reason why I went back to L.A. is that I was already in L.A. I went to Miami for one day, and I came back. Hmm, interesting. Bonnie got back in the BMW. They went and got another slider. These guys were all sliding around together. It had a GPS tracker in it the whole time.
Starting point is 01:40:52 Obviously, the hit went down and they're saying that that BMW that Voni was driving, it went from, I cannot believe it. It went from Dirk's house to Kondo's hotel. They're camping out at night until 1 a.m. outside Kondo's hotel. It then went to like, right, it then went to, it's crazy. It then went back to Dirk's house overnight and then the next day when they went to do the hit, it turned up at Kondo's hotel, turned up at the bathing apes store where Kondo went to. It turned up immediately after that at the dispensary that Kwondo went to. It then was two blocks away when the murder was carried out and Saviara Robinson, Lil Pab was killed.
Starting point is 01:41:31 It then went to in and out where all the hitmen all linked up. And it then went back to Dirk's house. I'm sorry, but that's going to be pretty tough. That's going to be pretty tough to answer for, right? They're going to say that Dirk is not blaming every, like Dirk, look, Dirk's blaming this whole thing on Voni, right? And so he's going to have to basically explain that Voni was out hunting people going back and from Dirk's house going on a trip to Miami with Dirk Lee.
Starting point is 01:41:52 So remember, Vani's admitting that, you know, this car, he was either in or driving. So he's admitting that, yeah, I was stalking Cuando. So that's going to help try to prove that with Dirk. Here's the thing. Dirk's not in the car. But he has to connect it to Dirk to say Dirk paid for it. Dirk told me to take the car. Also, here's the thing, too.
Starting point is 01:42:18 Going back to who made that case saying that, I think, French's news said it, or did somebody else say it? That Vonny was dropping little seeds that in case they got caught, he could blame it on dirt. Yeah, why would you go to an exotic car rental place to get a car that's going to be following a nigger for a murder? Why would you go rent a Mayback from Mayback Rentals, Miami to go follow a nigger to give the drop to a Honda Civic to go kill the nigger? Do you think that there's not surveillance footage? What do you think this is? And then why would you drive a car?
Starting point is 01:42:55 Any rental car in 2026, you got to imagine has a tracker. These days, niggas rent their cars, even on Turo. They rent their cars, they got a GPS on that bitch in case you try to steal it. So you know the shit is tracked. But you know it's tracked. You follow Cuando to a bunch of locations. You are two blocks away from the murder.
Starting point is 01:43:16 And then afterwards, I bet when they search somebody's phone or they're going to say, yo, we share their location with the killers. And then what's going to happen is that you then drive the car to in and out. You meet up with the murderers and you drive it back to where Dirk is staying. That kind of seems cooked. Or you could be like, Vani's not that dumb. Vani did that in case niggas got caught and he needed to, you know, drop some breadcrumbs. I don't think Vani's that smart.
Starting point is 01:43:48 Okay? I don't think Vani's that smart. Okay, here's another video. Sorry, here we go. Inside the courthouse, we just got a very, very crazy update about some stuff that OTF's going to say. And while I'm doing all this, we've got the Free Dirk Brigade out here. They're doing those protests. I'm probably going to go and talk to them at some point soon.
Starting point is 01:44:11 But I need to give you guys an update first because apparently a new group chat is being introduced last minute. The defense are livid that this is being introduced. And basically this follows on from Jam apparently getting pressed. in a bathroom at a music video shoot for The Block is Hot. Apparently they're saying that Dirk and others followed him into the bathroom. Wow. Had a conversation with him about, you know, they were saying that he was involved in another murder and another situation and that they was basic.
Starting point is 01:44:36 So Jam is just a legit hit man. He just got a bunch of murders. So his deal got to be, I'll tell you every murder, just make sure I don't spend life in prison. You know, making it hot for OTF. Apparently it's been alleged that, you know, someone might have said to him in that interaction that they should get out of town. And then after all of that, Jam basically said that he texted a group chat that Dirk was in saying he's noticed that he's been getting cut out since that day. And obviously we've heard testimony that Jam was apparently saying some stuff like, you know, he was in group chats and they were saying, yeah, blood's about to snitch clear as day.
Starting point is 01:45:06 So Jam apparently knew the OTF were turning on him. And they basically, he said that like, hey, ever since that day, I know guys been acting different around me. Apparently Dirk replied, look, I get it, but we can't do the Fed's job for them. We got to let them do their jobs. basically low key hinting that he knows that he's telling him but trying to downplay the situation and then from there um apparently why would dirk even put that in text messages what apparently jam said i'll lay it out gang ms acting scared to be around now what's going to be interested in what i want to know so dirk dirt isn't your your your natural dummy so there's nothing on like any text that says
Starting point is 01:45:41 we killed him but dirk what he does is that he'll have these he has his main number and then he'll have like a random phone and that random phone kind of does talk shop but it never is fully incriminating but it's a burner that suppose he's not in his name that he just communicates with that they know oh that's Dirk's gonna be on that phone but that's him talking to the guys
Starting point is 01:46:04 now granted because people snitch the feds figured out everything they're like oh okay so that's his burner so his main number he never used so Dirk actually thought he was being smarter than the cops except the cops have the people who understand the scheme and they already told them exactly what it was.
Starting point is 01:46:20 Around me, guys act like they don't F with me since that day when he got pressed in the bathroom. Apparently, Dirk told him, I'm with you, a thousand percent, use your head. We ain't helping them people do their job. And then Jam basic said, I've got you on my son. And then apparently there was another crazy back and forth where Jam was apparently in response to this whole thing with Lameron Richo and what was going on with all of that. I'm seeing something crazy going on behind me. I'm going to lie. But basically, like Jam was basically offer him. When Dirk said, hey, I got him out multiple ski masks hunting you, blood. Like he was saying that to Lameron Richer, apparently Jam offered and basically said,
Starting point is 01:46:55 hey, I'm down to hunt them. I just need a couple cars to get the job done. He said, I need a few cars to squash the beef with them. Apparently Dirk doesn't reply. Jam then replies to a Dirk story post where he's sharing some of his music. He replies saying drop and Dirk says, I'm ready on Pluto. Now the defense is saying that the feds are trying to make it look like that, you know, Jam was saying, drop me them sliders. Dirk's ready to slide on Pluto. he's talking about music. They're saying there's another message
Starting point is 01:47:19 they're trying to say is incriminating, but he's really talking about a celebrity boxing match. Everybody's anticipating this Jam testimony being absolutely crazy. I think it is going to be absolutely crazy when it does happen. But even before we get to it,
Starting point is 01:47:30 the feds, the prosecutors, the defense, they're all arguing about these kind of alleged messages. And, hey, if that's what we got from Jam when he hits the stand, I think it's going to be crazy. But that's the latest update.
Starting point is 01:47:43 So Jam is going to make the movie. Out here, I'm seeing Doody Low out here. I'm seeing Big Durk. I might need to go and see what's going on, man. People talking about I got a couple fades lined up or something, but you know what I'm saying? I'm out here just doing my best.
Starting point is 01:47:54 Shout to Traplore. Okay. I do got to grab my dogs and let my other dog out of Can't Lie. But I want to keep on. Okay, so one of the... Here we go. The craziest things that we heard in court today really blew my mind. There is a whole bunch of evidence
Starting point is 01:48:07 when it comes to these stalking charges and Lil Durk. Now, I could not believe this, okay? But a lot of stuff is being tied around this BMW that apparently Vonny was driving around to various locations. What is so insane is that they're saying Dirk had a house in Los Angeles They're saying that Dirk basically was like you know he had it was living in a house in Los Angeles 35,000 dollar a month crib that he had for a certain period of time Voni was his assistant apparently they they basically had the BMW already rented from some exotic car rental place
Starting point is 01:48:36 And Voni was driving the car around he had driven the car left it at Dirk's house they went to Miami for a day Okay, can we play this already so Dirk took a picture with these people So another thing that came out in court today that was very interesting was to do with the flights. Now, interestingly enough, okay, they said that Lil Dirk had an Amex account that had four different people with different credit cards under it. One of them was kind of like, you know, somebody that worked for him. Did I tell you? It's his account. Is his account he has, so when you have a business credit card, like I have business credit cards.
Starting point is 01:49:09 I could assign it to people. Like I could put a spending limit and be like, hey, you could spend this amount of month. it's my card, but the hope is that they're going to spend on that card for your business. Okay, rather than you having to give them your number every time and you can't really track who did what, let's say it's three people that work for you that's using a business card. You don't know, you could actually put them on there. So I guarantee, I'm telling you, when Dirk said don't book none under my name, these dummies took it to be, oh, just don't use Dirk's name on his business card.
Starting point is 01:49:42 but these other brokies, they got nothing else going on, they're going to use their credit card, but their OTF credit card, which is basically like booking it under Dirk's name because he owns the company. So you don't use Dirk's name on his business card. If you never see a business card, I got a business card here,
Starting point is 01:50:01 I don't want to show you out, because y'all thinks he's going to hack me. It says D.J. Academics, then it says Livingston Island. Now, it could say DG academics and any other name underneath. Those would be employees that I'm assigning them. card to. So I guarantee these fucking dummies when they hear Dirk say don't book nothing under my name, they're like, okay, bet, we won't use Dirk's, Dirk Banks name under OTF. We'll use, I don't know, whoever we are, but OTF. Here's a problem. It all goes back to OTF. Who owns OTF? Dirk.
Starting point is 01:50:33 Idiots. Everybody was sort of like a business manager. One of them was his father and him. Now, they weren't booked on his specific card, but they were booked. So 150,000 credit limit is insane. That's cheap. I think he's a fucking millionaire. I'm surprised his Amex isn't like 700,000. Booked on one of the cards that belong to one of the people's that worked for him.
Starting point is 01:50:58 All of the flights of all the hit men was booked on Lil Dirk's Amex account by a card that wasn't in his name. But it was... Exactly. Did not tell you all that? I'm telling you I know. I'm telling you I know. Amex account. His company isn't called OTF.
Starting point is 01:51:12 It's got a different name. I won't reveal that name to you now, but it's got a name that you might expect for, like, you know, a music company to kind of have, right? It doesn't explicitly state what he's doing, but it's something sounds. It's obviously a musical company. Now, what's super messed up about this
Starting point is 01:51:26 is literally they showed the Amex bank statements and it showed the name of the person on the flight, where the flight was, going to the price, just all the details when the flight was scheduled to happen, all on... These dummies said... And by the way, let me tell us, this is what happened when you deal with broke niggas.
Starting point is 01:51:42 Dirk is financing the whole thing. He says don't book nothing under my name. These dummies don't even have a personal card for themselves. Okay? You're booking a flight for murder. Your boss says don't book nothing under my name. And your genius idea is, well, I'm still going to put it on their OTF,
Starting point is 01:52:03 but I'm going to put it on their OTF my name. Motherfucker, he owns OTF. You basically just booked it all his name. Dummy? On his Amex statement, right? I didn't know they had that much interest. I ain't got an Amex. So I don't know.
Starting point is 01:52:15 I don't do crime. Amics the best card, angle cap. You know, I guess it's a bit of a thing. But what was interesting was that they kind of leaked a few other pieces of information. They showed off his Amex cards. And not only was that month, the hitters, flights booked on that Amex account, but we also ended up seeing something very interesting. That month, he had apparently spent $150,000 plus on that one Amex account.
Starting point is 01:52:38 And apparently he spent $6,000 in Amiri that month. He'd spent $3,000 in Neiman Marcus, and they were... That's the average rapper spent. I'm going to be honest. A bunch of other little small transactions that I guess all added up to a lot, but those were a couple of really big... I spent $70,000 to $80,000 on my Amex every month. Like, it is what it is.
Starting point is 01:52:57 Like, I don't know if... That's not even news. The niggas up mad millions. What the fuck? Like, you got to pay the cost to be the boss. You got to pay for flights, pay for this, pay for that. You write everything off. That's why you use an Amex business account, right?
Starting point is 01:53:10 So there's an OTF card. You write everything. everything off. But what do you think? flights are free? You got to B, Dirk got to book 18 flights when he's moving, unless he's taking a private jet. It's on the Amex. Got to book 10 hotels.
Starting point is 01:53:24 It's on the Amex. Got a book this and third. It's on the Amex. Yes. 150,000. I know y'all be like, the guy is making over $10 million at this point a year. $150,000 a month on an Amex is not crazy. Trust me.
Starting point is 01:53:40 big transactions that stood out. So he out here, balling out, getting fits, you know what I'm saying, getting fly, getting dressed. They were going on private jets. They were taking a private jet from L.A. to Miami the day before the murders or the day before the stalking actually started taking place. And it was just a lot. A lot of information was put across there. And obviously he allegedly said in a message, you know, don't book nothing on no flights connected to me. And unfortunately, it seems like that advice wasn't followed. Now, I agree. Somebody said doing a hit with an amex is stupid. I fucking agree. Yo, I'm going to tell you why Amex is the best card because I use it. Amics is the best card because it tracks everything. It tracks everything. Right? And it sorts your business things, right? Like, I pay for my two studios with my Amex card. I pay for my two studios in Jersey City with it.
Starting point is 01:54:29 I pay for my streaming backpack with it. I pay for everything with it. It's Amex. This is a fucking great card. You know what I mean? So if someone's saying, why is it so much money? I think I'm paying $15,000 for two studio apartments every month. I'm paying probably like $1,000 for extreme backpacks.
Starting point is 01:54:47 Like, nigga, and that's me. I'm trying to tell you out for everybody who's just like not in that financial position, a rapper of dirt status that moves around with 50 people. Yes, I book all my flights on Amex. Yes, $150,000 is not that crazy. Keep in mind, let's extrapolate that to end of the year. That's about $1.5 million. right?
Starting point is 01:55:11 Dirk is making $10 million. And that $1.5 million is mostly expenses that's getting written off because those are expenses. You're paying for either a studio expense. If you're paying for a flight expense. So it actually helps him with tax overall. Now, the brokies and the dummies he have working for him that he's clearly telling them this is not work. We're doing a murder. They shouldn't use the fucking business.
Starting point is 01:55:39 business card. You know what I'm saying? Like 8,000 at a Miri, that actually you save money with the government with that. Dirk needs clothes. That's actually a taxable thing or an expense you could put on your taxes. That's all valid. Booking 10 flights for murders does not belong on a company car. Okay. Does not belong on a company car. That's a reality about it. Okay. So I know y'all are crazy. about the amount, but Dirk is a really successful artist.
Starting point is 01:56:13 The defense said in their opening statement that they kind of like were planning to, you know, say, well, he said don't book no flights in relation to me, but they were actually booked, you know, in relation to him. So they ain't really nothing to hide. Well, it's kind of like, well, is that because there was nothing to hide or was that because they was kind of dumb and they didn't do what they was told to do to book the flights on someone else's name. But we saw all of them flights on the statements, not really a great look, to be honest. Now again Dirk's gonna just have to answer to why he's booking those flights
Starting point is 01:56:44 He could be like oh they're my security Oh that's my entourage and rap we have entourages I booked their flights for my business purpose If they went off and did some crime I didn't know about the crime I didn't book them for the crap Okay um someone says go check this page Duty low checked
Starting point is 01:57:03 Traplor Ross let's see Shirex smoke Let's see, let's see, let's see. Okay, so that's duty low and traplow Ross is, let's see. We go bigger and more important things. Especially are you doing a correct seat, man. I'm trying to be fair, be fair. I'm not going to be fair.
Starting point is 01:57:21 All right, back. All right, back. You always say it's do, I don't do the answer. When you do your recap video, make sure you wait you do out for dirt shirt, for all the people call the hell. Yeah, I want to say shout out of Muslim. Because I'm not going to be all Muslim men. Um, do you load in, like, check him.
Starting point is 01:57:38 It's not disrespect. He's just saying, hey, just be fair to Dirk. That's not checking. That's not even a disrespect. Trappler is a big deal. Like, he's out there. They're trying to talk to him. But they're not bullying him right here.
Starting point is 01:57:49 We call it for those. Yeah, okay. For whoever who says he got checked or whatever, he's not getting bullied, bro. Like, you know, obviously, Doy Lowe loves Dirk. He's like, yo, bro, just make sure you'd be fair. To me, that's not. Bro, I know y'all look at Traplore as a white dude from your. UK. And maybe he's just think he's a super pussy. He's like, yeah, you can have that discussion.
Starting point is 01:58:13 Okay. All right. No, of course. I'm going to make sure I give Dirk a fair chance. What's the problem? I don't think that's checking. All right. Let's keep you going. Another thing that came out. All right. Next video. Next video. Okay. The hit men who killed little pop or ski masks, but kept the same shoes and pans from the murder when they went out to in and out 40 minutes later. Now, I got to tell you, here's a little bit of context. I'm giving you out context and everything. Chat, I go to LA I love in and out more than anything in the world If I just clap the nigga in L.A.
Starting point is 01:58:45 I'm not changing my drawers or my shoes. I'm gonna get to that motherfucker in and out. Give me that double double with animal styre fries, okay? And make sure I get a tall glass of lemonade and I'm gonna with extra ice and I'm gonna have a good time. Okay, I just clap the nigger
Starting point is 01:59:04 and I'm eating some great double double, out of in and out. I'm sorry. I'm not changing my shoes. Not changing my shoes, my draws, none of that. In and out is special to me. I'm sorry, y'all. I'm sorry. Oh yes. Oh yes. Anyway. So one of the most ridiculous things that came up in court today is apparently the hit men that were sent on the, you know, mission to murder Cuondo Rondo that ended up killing his cousin, Lord Pab, Savaya Robinson. They really did one of the silliest things I've ever seen. So they actually went out there and committed this murder. They bought ski masks from, this is an American store.
Starting point is 01:59:39 It's an American store. It's R-E-I or Ray or Rye. I'm not familiar with it, but it's like a sporting good store. So they went and bought four ski masks. Bonnie was sent to go and buy four ski masks from that store. They then, you know, allegedly went on this hit. They wore ski masks and, you know, all-black outfits. But interestingly enough, after that, we ended up seeing, you know, this story that they had like, you know, changed the top half of their outfits, but they had then gone to In-N-Out Burger wearing the same shoes,
Starting point is 02:00:03 pretty distinctive shoes like they look to me like you know various different eras of jordan's in different colors one had a pair of black shoes on with white details one had a pair of red shoes on one had a pair of gray shoes on and they were all very very distinctive any sneaker head would have been able to identify these specific yo these niggas went and and wore exclusive kicks to the to the murder and also to in and out chat i'll give you a little tidbit i know tmi you know but I try to, you know, give my little insight when I can. Chat, remember when two niggins try to run up in my crib? The detectives that live around here, right?
Starting point is 02:00:43 So they knew the one guy because, of course, thanks to him, he drove his car to my crib. So, like, even though the cops let him go that night because he was driving wild, they realized it wasn't a hot car. It was a car registered to him. So all they did was just go pick his ass up. So congrats to him.
Starting point is 02:00:59 The other guy, they didn't know who he was. However, here's the beautiful thing about it. You know, they were trying to keep their heads down because I have lights and all the type of shit like pointing it and cameras. And he was trying to keep his head down. And what ended up cooking him, the boy wore some exclusive kicks.
Starting point is 02:01:20 It was some Jordians with some webs on it or some dumb shit like that. When the cops went to Virginia to pick his ass up, the dude is such a fucking moron. He had the same shoes on. Brilliant. I love it. I love it. Nigger had the same shoes on that he did the fucking,
Starting point is 02:01:35 he did the attempted robbery. And so, yeah, there was just like, come on here, nigga. Come on, come on. So that is, I think it's a popular thing by these detectives. They know niggas will change their shirt, change their drawers, change their pants, but they won't change them fucking sneakers. Not when they're doing that,
Starting point is 02:01:52 when they're doing that drilling that goddamn, you know they're doing it in that exclusive kicks. So yeah, so what the detectives do is, oh, okay, so that's kick. you're wearing half of these niggas they wear the same drawers three days in a row anywhere anyway if they get some exclusive kicks they're gonna wear that bitch every two days okay so yeah they called him with the kicks and shout to that guy um you know I'm going on like after I've seen that video 10 times I want to buy that the Jordans with the web on it what an idiot
Starting point is 02:02:25 shit anyways okay so the the killer is in a little pop situation uh they changed their clothes, let's not be detective, but let's wear the same shoes. Brilliant. This is like some brilliant shit. This is like some next level IQ. So one of the most ridiculous things that came up in court today is apparently the hitman that was sent on the, you know, mission to murder Cuondo Rondo that ended up killing his cousin-law, Pabsevaya Robinson. They really did one of the silliest things I've ever seen. So they actually went out there and committed this murder. They bought ski masks from this is an American store. Like ski mask, gloves and everything.
Starting point is 02:03:03 We'll keep the same shoes. Of course, R.E.I or Ray or Rai. I'm not familiar with it, but it's like a sporting good store. So they went and bought four ski masks. Bonnie was sent to go and buy four ski masks from that store. They then, you know, allegedly went on this hit. They wore ski masks and, you know, all black outfits. But interestingly enough, after that, we ended up seeing, you know, this story that they had like,
Starting point is 02:03:24 you know, changed the top half of their outfits. But they had then gone to In-N-Out Burger, we're in the same shoe. Pretty distinctive shoes. Like they look to me like, you know, various different. You got to wear some exclusive kicks. Hey. You can't go on a drill with no damn black air air forces. You got to go with the Travis Scots.
Starting point is 02:03:46 You got to go with some Jordans that's exclusive. You got to come on, man. I always shout it out to my man, my man, K. Flock. When I heard that nigga killed the nigga in fashion and he had a one-of-one sneaker, limited edition, Holy, holy, clapping the nigger with some exclusive, hey, it is what it is. Ears of Jordans in different colors, one had a pair of black shoes on with white details, one had a pair of red shoes on, one had a pair of gray shoes on.
Starting point is 02:04:16 And they were all very, very distinctive. Any sneaker head would have been able to identify these specific types of sneaker. And it's kind of ridiculous that they would do this hit, be caught on the surveillance footage in the hit. And we saw side by side images basically showing the guys that were like, the hit with the ski masks on. We saw the ski masks that had been purchased by Voni at the sporting goods store. We then saw images of them all with their faces out in, in and out burger, with the same shoes on as they wore in the hit 40 minutes earlier. But what really killed me, and this one is crazy. I got to give it to them. The detectives went ham on this case.
Starting point is 02:04:50 And this is the biggest irony you will ever hear today. Apparently, OTF Jam, he did the hit in a pair of sweatpants, all right? And it said, rats before riches. Rats before riches. Now that don't really make too much sense. I'm guessing it means you got to go through people ratting on you before you get to your riches. But it's like he wore these pants that said rats before riches. You know what the detectives did? He was wearing those. This is so crazy because he ended up becoming a cooperator. But he was wearing those during the hit. He then wore them to in and out after the hit. And the detectives said that there was only two stores that sold these pants. They're in Southside Chicago and then they then went there and said who's shopped here,
Starting point is 02:05:26 who bought these pants from here? They said it was OTF D. D.D. They said it was D.D had gone there and Kitted out the killers with a bunch of bunch of merch that you can only Gotta put the killers in some drip Gotta put the killers in the drip Joe shots I don't know if Didi did that shit I think they lied on Didi
Starting point is 02:05:43 Didi I know you wouldn't do no shit like that But I gotta respect The killers Being in some exclusive drip One-on-one You can't have another nigga wearing the shit you're wearing When you go into a drill God forbid the cops
Starting point is 02:06:03 think that somebody else who got the same drip as you did it, you got to be rocking the one-on-one. One-on-one. I respect it. One-of-one. Getting south-side Chicago, after that, that led to the subpoenas, Instagram accounts being taken over. It was just an absolute mess.
Starting point is 02:06:24 But really, you could argue that it was the sneakers that got the guys caught. You know, then you got the GPS data of the, you know, of the cars, the license plates, the fake tags. But, bro, they really showed them wearing an assortment of different. different Jordans and different colors at the hit ski masks on and then at a restaurant same pants one of them had a ripped like a you know you know you get the ripped jeans with a rip in the knee still had those on jam had the the rats before riches on it was just like insane why would you do a hit in those same outfits what you mean why do it niggas got to know what's up all right saidie i see you
Starting point is 02:07:01 i here maybe i got to go to the youtube channel i know he's probably like um gonna kick it off in a second All right. Is Trenches News live? Yo, Trenches News.

Starting point is 02:11:11 Yeah. So I'm like, fear missing out. I'm like, hold on, bro. Broker to just did a LeBron James. Game could have just did a LeBron James, nigga, and joined the crowd. Instead, he's just like, look, bro, you my nigga, this is my nigga, y'all got your rap beef. I'm out the way. People say, well, what he went at Rick Ross, it kind of looked like, no, what that is, that's this.

You know how I go. nigga, what's up with you, nigga? You know what I'm saying? Both these diggas by a nigga, but what's up with you, nigga? We don't get back to the dirt stuff. I'm just reacting to this real quick.

It's just you side buzzing because Kendrick on Drake ass. Yeah. So, Gary kind of like... Fucking, I'm a hop in it too.
Starting point is 02:12:10 What's up with you? And on top of that, game wanted to expose some other shit. You know that niggas phone. For all of y'all out there in the industry. who think y'all larger than life, there's a great chance that in J. C. John Taylor's phone, your wife or your bitches in there.
Starting point is 02:12:26 This is a fact. So at the time, he was waiting for the nigger to say something because he was going to expose some shit. You know, one thing I can say, my trio or artists, I lined it with any other trio. I think they didn't ran through

Starting point is 02:13:47 So I'm like, What did they claimant I did? I don't know, bro. They say you was trying to start a beef or five stars. I said, I don't know what you. I said, I'm a call, bro, right now. I said, but you all got to keep it respectful. You know, I was in there battling with all crips today.

Starting point is 02:14:18 Fuck it. They had all kind of crazy shit. I knew you was going to say some crazy shit. Well, I watched one clip. I want to clear this up. I don't know. It said Terell asked Wack, why did Ack have to call out Drake to post the album?
Starting point is 02:14:33 Let me just say this. And I was like, where'd you get that from? I guess you said it. I didn't know. No, no. So, no, I did say that Drake should post the album. He did post the album. But I do want to, for anyone,
Starting point is 02:14:44 and listen, unfortunately, y'all can't do to me what I could do to y'all. Okay. Drake, don't get called out by nobody, including me. Yeah, that's what I told him. My nigga was going to post the album regardless. That's a fact. Okay?
Starting point is 02:14:59 You said, I said that. They like, yeah, I said, well, we got to, I ain't see that. I said, I know me an act at a conversation. I spoke on it on Thursday. Hold on. Hey, hey, you know what? Because they try to use their brain and I know it's not that big, they don't really know. Hey, listen, maybe I only said, Drake, you got to post that.
Starting point is 02:15:17 album because I know he was going to post it anyway already. Who looks like the genius? Anyway, again, Drake, he supports, he supports game. Shout to game. You know, again, I still stand on the same thing I said. We go respect loyalty, especially all 2026. There's too many disloyal back biting. And when somebody shows that they will stand against the masses, they will stand their ground
Starting point is 02:15:42 because I know whack 100 would do for me. You know how many times that they've called him and say, oh, that fuck. I hate that nigga. And every single time, you know what Wax says? All right, I'm gonna call a little bro, but that's my nigga. And that's it. That's important. We got to value loyalty.
Starting point is 02:16:01 You got a value loyalty. Our little brother called me yesterday. He owns some bullshit. I think he's about to sum of us down to my... Well, first of all, have you kept up with this trial today? But hold on, let me just say one more thing on a drink thing. Again, y'all can't do these little amateur, like, child playing people against each other. Shout to drink.
Starting point is 02:16:25 He knows, listen, he knows what to do the right thing, and the right thing was to support a nigger who's been supporting you. I can't make that call. If y'all think that, and I don't know if y'all trying to get a him or trying to, like, gash me up. I can't tell a nigger to do nothing. He's a real nigger or he's not. If he ain't a real nigger, he's not going to do it. If you're a real nigga, he's going to do it regardless. Now, did I know he going to do it before I even said it?
Starting point is 02:16:49 Well, you keep thinking. That's all I'm going to say. But shout to game. Everybody's saying that game album's kind of going up. What's you thinking? Yeah, yeah, it is. I believe so. Hey, by the way, why you ain't telling me that he got a bunch of more tracks?
Starting point is 02:17:02 He's talking on there. He's talking on there. I was going to give it out now. He's talking, though. Hey, bro, he delivered a real album, real rap album. I came from him. I mean, bro, you know, we've been getting a lot of crazy shit, but he delivered a real rap album, bro.
Starting point is 02:17:21 I came from. He did his thing. He did this thing. No, it was great coming with a new album, end of the year. Got what I'm saying? Four albums, bro, already. You got to come with something. You know?
Starting point is 02:17:36 Oh, no, I hung up. But, no, I don't know. Listen, man. These y'all see, I'd be like, like, let's move on from talking about Drake for a second. Let's move on. Let me got mad other stuff to talk about. Shout to Drake. Shot to the crotie.
Starting point is 02:17:52 That's my guy. That's my guy. And by the way, let me tell you all this. For all, hey, you see how y'all got, you got the niggins claiming Kendrick not saying nothing but Macwop and T.E. Keman. D. D.R. And smack day talking crazy.
Starting point is 02:18:06 Yo, listen, man. Me and Drizzy, that's the gang. Okay. That's the homie, man. Don't you worry. Um, but I, just out of respect, academics can't tell Drake a motherfucking thing to do. And by the way, let's, let's put it vice versa.
Starting point is 02:18:23 Drake can't tell academics and motherfucking thing to do. Okay. So it's one of those things where, of course, we got mutual respect. But trust me, and again, I don't want to burst out bubble. Don't even give me that credit of saying that, oh, oh, academics said this and that, no, no, no. It ain't, listen, it's either you a real nigga or you not. Okay?
Starting point is 02:18:41 And when YG and DJ Munster and them niggas drop day project, you know who's not a real nigga because he's not posting it. When a nigga who show you love, been a real solid one for you, could have switched up. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 02:18:54 Did the 23 of me? He won't be a real nigga to you. That's it. They got a goddamn thing to do with me. They got a goddamn thing to do with me. I'm just letting y'all niggas know that now. All right? And so, you know, T.
Starting point is 02:19:08 Relling them, I get y'all confused and everything, but let's talk about, this how come the nigga who who produced not like us mustard ain't get a shout out no story how come he ain't get no oh this shit fire i'm listening to it right now none of that how come y g don't get that none of that how come schoolboy q don't get that none of that how come he don't fuck with none of y'all the reality is that i like listen drake my man's but everybody know i can't tell drake what to do and everybody know jake can't tell me what to do We fuck with each other, though.
Starting point is 02:19:46 And also, this got nothing to do with me. This is Drake and game relationship. Okay? So if y'all think that me saying something is why he got posted, you're fucking wrong. If he ain't want to post, he ain't want to post it. It is what it is. He posted it. Make a fuck with a guy.
Starting point is 02:20:04 That's what it is. So, again, while y'all trying to sow seeds of dissension, okay? Because now y'all y'all try to get at like Drake's ego. Oh, man. Drake over here, academics could tell him what to do. Do you believe that, gangie? He's a real nigga. Y'all don't have a real nigga over there.
Starting point is 02:20:26 Yo, let me just tell you how West Coast niggies this. Baby Keem should not drop an album without Kendrick shouting it out. Nigel, the fuck is you talking about? Schoolboy Q. YG. DJ Munster should not be fucking dropping albums when the guy that got the Infinity Stones. He can't even throw up a tweet. Yo, this is the only thing popping right now.
Starting point is 02:20:47 How are you going to talk about watch the party die, nigger when you can't even contribute to your mansing them doing anything? It's not real nigger shit. That's not real nigger shit to me. So again, y'all could try to shift it as whatever. Yo, you're just dealing with a real nigger. Whether he posted it at the first minute or the last minute,
Starting point is 02:21:07 he posted that shit. Why Kendrick don't post none of the flops on the West Coast? You don't fuck with y'niggas? Yo, if I cripp walk for you for like 40 minutes, nigger, and I drop my album in and you, don't post my shit? I'm tight, man, I'm tight,
Starting point is 02:21:23 you know, my ankles hurting. I, like, tore my Achilles, tecting. Bro, how we creepwalk for you at the pop out and we drop our album you can't even post it? How that work?
Starting point is 02:21:34 But it's all good. We're not even tripping on it. Shout to Kendrick. Yo, starve them boys out. I like how Kendrick treat y'all niggies on the West Coast, like hoas. Straight up.
Starting point is 02:21:43 I'm tired. Like, I even go a lot of you. I like how you treat y'all. Like, hoes. You feel what I'm saying? Nick? Y'all get nothing. nigga like,
Starting point is 02:21:50 nigga, give me the baked potatoes niggas, give me the rice, nigga, give me the steak nigga, nigga, nothing for y'all niggas. Y'all niggas
Starting point is 02:21:56 just drop, flop and get the fuck out of here and maybe when pop out 2.0 pop out, maybe you could come back. That's it. That niggs get treated like hos. Y'all should.
Starting point is 02:22:05 Shout out, Kendrick. That's my nigger. He should treat you niggas like hos. The next time when he tried to recruit y'all niggas to dance at his fucking show,
Starting point is 02:22:15 let's make sure you come with your tap dancing boots, nigger. But if you want a verse, No. You want a shout out? No. Nigger, you get nothing.
Starting point is 02:22:24 You know that scene in Painted Folk? You don't get no rice. You don't get nothing. So, whether y'all can't say nothing about Drake and Game. What the fuck them other niggas got? Not a goddamn thing, man.
Starting point is 02:22:40 Shout to Game. We rocked with your album. I see what you did for your daughter. That's super dope. Other than that, does Drake got a project coming out? Let's just wait and see. That's what you can see
Starting point is 02:22:57 I don't know if Wack is calling back But uh To this case y'all We locked in Chat when's the last time I did a seven hours stream We seven hours in right now Y'all want me to get offline? It's all good let me know
Starting point is 02:23:17 I get the fuck off We're breaking this shit down like a kilo of coat By the way attorney Jasmine Thank you for the text She said act I see you showing everybody love Like I'm in the build I'm like girl I'm gonna show you love too Okay
Starting point is 02:23:31 I said whenever you got like an update or something We want to react to it We want to like show some light on you doing your things So we're just trying to look for a recent update from you, all right Y'all go fuck with Sadie Nash Sadie Nash. Sadie Nash, he'd be getting to a shit Sadie Nash be getting into his shit.
Starting point is 02:23:50 I'm going to tell you how to have one thing for sure Two things for certain. Is Armand there like Is Armand there in my tripping, bro? Am I tripping? Oh, he is there? Armand. Oh, he's probably waiting for,
Starting point is 02:24:06 like his live shit he'd be going live yeah he'd be going live see yeah I think he'd be going live Armand what's the deal Crosy feelings in his frustration oh he's live right now um he's also known as the voice yo get up in Armand's chat and tell him big act you know
Starting point is 02:24:24 we rock with him putting in the work being on the ground we fuck with Armand don't you worry you know and and so in his voice he uses it to he uses his voice to get his feelings and his opinions out there, but he doesn't mean any harm by it. I'm not living in L.A.
Starting point is 02:24:45 You know? And then social media was trolling him and kind of like trying to bait him into action by saying, you know, slide for Vonn, slide for Vonn. You know? And so they're basically saying, Little Durk and got shit to do with this.
Starting point is 02:25:13 He's completely innocent. She literally said he has nothing to do with this. There is no money. My client is completely... Okay, so you saw him on Marissa Goldberg. Now, remember, this is going to be a big part of Little Dirt's defense. They're going to be like, show us proof that Dirk paid. And...
Starting point is 02:25:30 Now, remember, they could kind of use that. You know why they probably can't use that in the next trial? So the next trial with the Vicar or the Vicar or whatever. And the Stefan Max situation, they're going to mention that Dirk brought a million to a million dollars worth a game and that the killer showed up to a million dollars worth a game which more than likely some of that million dollars he probably paid them like
Starting point is 02:25:51 yo here's like 40 bands you get what I'm saying so remember that but in this situation they're gonna hang their hat on show me where there's money that got paid I got the other nigga name too it's just so many names I'll be forgetting now chat y'all don't got to spam that he got to call me like
Starting point is 02:26:07 you know we'll watch him like yo he does his thing he does his thing you know he got his own he's breaking the shit down. We're entertained by Armand. It be gone. Because let me one second. He get into it. He gets into it. So that should be very interesting. All right. Now,
Starting point is 02:26:44 by the way, his, his title is that the stock in charges might stick. Now, let's let's kind of analyze that based on what we've heard so far. So the stock and charges are going to be important because if, Vonny's like admitting that, yo, that car, we drove the car, follow them there, follow them there, follow them there, follow them there. Here's the thing. I know, I know Armand is saying to my stick, but Dirk was never in the car. Now, you know who was in the car, so who it would stick to?
Starting point is 02:27:17 It would stick to Didi. Dedy was in the car. Dedy was in the car. Okay? Dedy was in that car. you know he wasn't a shooter who he's talking about. But they're saying that he was involved in one of these cars
Starting point is 02:27:33 and there's two cars. Okay, okay, cool, cool, we need this. DeAndre Wilson that's they're trying to say that he set everything up. He, you know, he wasn't a shooter, but they're saying that he was involved in one of these cars. Now, there's two cars.
Starting point is 02:27:50 There's an infinity and then there's a Mercedes. Infinity. where's the car that is a hot car. Yep. Awesome Houston. And Keith and Lindsay got out of. Also he's shot. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:28:10 Okay. And I'm going to tell you about these three fools later on and how they got caught. Oh yeah. Go ahead. Now, apparently though, DeAndre is being hung up because they're saying that he's corroborating everything and putting everything together.
Starting point is 02:28:25 Yes. So here's the thing that what's going to happen with when Vani gets on a stand. Vani, you see now that, so the government has to pivot a little bit, chat. The government got to pivot now that Dirk has showed his hand to say, our defense is that Vani set all this up. So when Vani gets to understand, you know who he's going to bury? He's going to not only bury Dirk. That's a given. He got to bury Didi. He's going to say, how am I the person who set it up when Dedy was the money man?
Starting point is 02:28:55 Didi got the guys. Didi gets the killers. Dedy pays the guys. I was never the guy who pays the guys. I don't know these killers. Didi contacts Booney Mode to go get jam. Didi does all the shit. So you're going to get, when it comes to Vani, he's going to, yes, he's going to do whatever and say whatever about Dirk.
Starting point is 02:29:17 But the person he's going to put as, oh, Dirk's team is line is who they think I am, Dedy is. Didi did it Didi knows the killers Didi pays the killers They go to him for everything Didi makes the call I'm just a do boy That's what he's gonna say
Starting point is 02:29:39 I'm a do boy They tell me to go get masking gloves I get masking gloves I don't know Now granted he's gonna be capping Because I still think he knew a lot Right But Didi allegedly
Starting point is 02:29:52 Had more of a rank with Dirk had more of a with Dirk Keep in mind The baby threat dude who told over the gun shit told him I know about murders He Right
Starting point is 02:30:08 He is Dedy's little brother And you see how OTF They call Jam a snitch Nobody called baby threat a snitch And obviously they didn't hear about certain stuff
Starting point is 02:30:24 But of course, they're not going to hear about it, believe it, or distrust it. Why? That's Didi's brother. So Didi is going to watch Oteyavani throw Dini in the midst. Now when that happens, you're going to understand why. Didi was trying to sever his case. Because in reality, Vani sets shit up. But Didi is really the right hand, according to.
Starting point is 02:30:54 to the feds. Dedy is the right hand. Dedy's the right hand. So if he separated his case, they can't use Dedy against Dirk. They can't use Dirk against Dedy. That's why he wanted his case separate. People thought he wanted his case separate to snitch. No, if you're going to snitch, they just take your case off the
Starting point is 02:31:10 docket, superseded, and get you out of there. Just like they did to Vani. Just like they did to, I believe, Flaka. Just like they did to pretty much anyone that was going to cooperate. He was a part of the assist. and bringing the shit into fruition. And so now his attorney is saying, well, no.
Starting point is 02:31:35 DeAndre is not that. He's a young guy. Now, remember, in the opening statements, we hear about what Dirk's attorney say. Dirk's attorney is saying, Vondi did it. But the other two people who are standing trial, they have opening statements as well. So Didi, his lawyer, went,
Starting point is 02:31:55 And Didi's lawyer, you know, is trying to protect Didi. So he's trying to go and, you know, give his statement protecting Didi. And then the other person, I forgot who the other guy is, his lawyer is going to go as well. So pretty much in every situation, you're going to have three lawyers. The first is going to be lawyer for Dirk, then the other two. He lives. He's chasing the dream. He's not as famous as the voice.
Starting point is 02:32:19 He's not. Okay. So Armand is kind of like painting the picture right here. So you know what Didi's lawyer is the same? Why would Didi do nothing? of this shit. He's not the one with the money. He's, and by the way, the same way how y'all said that Dirk was snitching on, on Vani, Dini's using kind of the same strategy. Hey, I'm not the one with the money.
Starting point is 02:32:39 I'm not the one with the fame. He's not pointing fingers at Dirk. He's just saying, how could y'all put me in this? So all of them are going to have this defense of, oh, y'all look crazy if you think we did some shit. It's famous as little Dirk. But he wanted an opportunity. opportunity to grow. And sure, sometimes in this world, you get picked up from the airport, not by Uber, not by car, but yes, a party bus. Sometimes you do have to take an overnight trip right away to Sandy, from Chicago to San Diego in the moment.
Starting point is 02:33:23 And they said that that happened to him. Love you Armand But We got some shit here, chat We got some shit And by the way, not on some weird stuff I know he's gay
Starting point is 02:33:41 Like not some worse I know But you know Like we appreciate good good work And he's doing good work That's the type of shit we fuck with Okay This is gonna be a hell of a trial chat
Starting point is 02:33:54 And I told you You know who's gonna have the best Trial coverage You know, we own that shit. We own that shit. Here we go. Come on. Come on.
Starting point is 02:34:12 Wait. Why is it not working? Perfecto. Am I going to cover what? Mo three cases as well? Of course. That's the one to be yellow bees, yeah? Of course.
Starting point is 02:34:31 Come on now, Chad. You know what we do. All right, chat. Thanks to my team who's working hard. Chat, we already got the transcript for today. Yes, indeed. We got the transcript for today. So chat, I'm going to give a reading.
Starting point is 02:34:48 I might have to go get my dog. One of them are barking to a little bit too much. They got to calm it down. Calm it the hell down. I don't know what they're barking about like that. But I'm going to read verbatim what was said in opening statements. Okay. You ready for this?
Starting point is 02:35:03 This is opening statements. Okay. Open statements. Okay. Here we go. So they start with a bunch of stuff. Da-da-da-da. Let's get to open a statement.
Starting point is 02:35:14 The jury's not in. Okay, so they talk about a bunch of stuff before the jury gets in. And this is opening statements. Y'all ready? This is for the prosecution. Okay, I'm going to read it like I'm in court. Good morning, y'all. This case is about revenge, stalking, and premeditated murder.
Starting point is 02:35:34 This is the case about the death of a 24-year-old Saviare Robinson at the hands of these defendants and their co-conspirators. And on a summer day in August 22nd, Saviour Robinson and some friends, including the rapper Tyquan Bowman, who you will hear being referred to throughout this trial by his nickname, Cuando Rondo. It's going to be a name you hear throughout this trial a lot. They were visited in Los Angeles. What you will learn in this trial is that
Starting point is 02:36:00 Cuando Rondo was a rival of Dirk Banks, who's also known by Little Dirk. What Cuando Rondo and Saviore Robinson didn't know was that they were being followed, that these defendants, these guys here, and their co-conspirators, they had flown across the country to track, stalk, hunt, and kill, Cuando Rondo. What Savaya Robinson didn't know.
Starting point is 02:36:22 What Cuando didn't know is that that day would be Savaya Robinson's last day on Earth. As Savaya and Cuando left their hotel, you will hear the defendants who and the co-conspirators who had flown in the day before stalked them using two cars. stalked them while they slept, stalked them while they shopped, and for two days tracked and stalked them while they drove around Los Angeles in that black escalate, waiting for their opportunity to ambush. And you will hear when Cuando and Savaya were at their most vulnerable at a gas station around 5.30 p.m. on a Friday during rush hour
Starting point is 02:37:02 at a busy gas station across from the Beverly Center. The co-conspirators. They decided it was the time to strike. Three mass shooters came down an alley, including defendant Lindsay in the front. Who you will learn was the man circled in red right there. They unloaded their firearms towards a car striking and killing Saviard Robinson. You will learn as the shooters, including defendant Lindsay, fled the scene.
Starting point is 02:37:32 Defendant Wilson was right around the corner in a getaway car. Oh, wow. By the way, let me just stop here. So apparently there's one shooter that never told. It's Lindsay. So it's three people on trial. Banks, Dirk. Wilson, Dedy.
Starting point is 02:37:53 Lindsay. Two of the shooters are cooperating. Two of the shooters are cooperating, chat. So two of the shooters are cooperating, and they're claiming Lindsay was in the front. You will learn as the shooters, including defendant Lindsay, fled to seat. Wilson was right around the corner in a getaway car.
Starting point is 02:38:15 Defendant Banks was sitting by the phone waiting for an update from his guys if his hitman got their guy and killed Quando Rondo. What the shooters and the co-conspirators left behind was dead body. 18 rounds include multiple expelled
Starting point is 02:38:34 from a machine gun. But the question is, why did this happen? For what reason did this occur? Why did the Saviah Robinson and die on that summer day. You know what the answer is, y'all? Revenge. This is a story of revenge.
Starting point is 02:38:56 And in order for y'all to understand the story of revenge, I'm going to introduce a couple key individuals that you will learn about throughout this whole trial. Check this out. There's a couple different names. I'll go through them. But they're important to understand the story of revenge, the story of years-long campaign of stalking,
Starting point is 02:39:11 and of course culminated in Savaya's death. So let's start with the defense. Dirk Banks. Defended Dirkbanks, he's known at Smirkio. Little Dirk. He's a prominent musician. He was a member of a group called. Yeah, he formed.
Starting point is 02:39:25 He formed the group. It was called OTF. Only the family. You're going to hear throughout this trial, O.T.F. But this trial, this case, is not about music. This is about murder. You're going to hear that on one part, OTF was music. Some of his members made music
Starting point is 02:39:46 But a subgroup of OTF Were members of some of the same Chicago gangs Informed Bonds They got to know each other that way And I want to talk to about an individual He's central to the story His name is Daveon Bennett I'm gonna refer to him as King Vaughn
Starting point is 02:40:05 And that's how you're gonna hear his name being referred to Throughout the trial Now King Vaughn he's a prominent member Of that Chicago gang You're going to learn that defendant banks, Smirkio, Defendant Wilson, oh, that's Didi, and other co-conspirators were part of that gang. In addition to being a prominent member, King Vaughn was also a member, what I tell y'all? OTF. You can see his chain right there.
Starting point is 02:40:33 OTF. He was a very close friend of defendant banks, and that's where our story of revenge starts. In November 2020, Cuanderrano and King Vaughan got an altercation. of Quarandar entourage shot and killed King Vaughn. So as of November 2020, King Vaughn was dead. And as I said before, King Von, he was a prominent member of OTF and a close friend of Smirkio. Well, what followed next was defendant banks became consumed with revenge.
Starting point is 02:41:01 You're going to hear a couple of different words for revenge in this trouble. You're going to hear the term get back or getting back. You're also going to hear the term slide, which means for someone, which you learn as a slang, someone's seeking revenge or getting back. And a term that you're going to hear a lot is slide for Vaughn. Get revenge. Get back for Vaughn.
Starting point is 02:41:28 And you're going to hear that in public and private, defendant banks express his desire to get back for revenge into his fellow OTF members. And at that time, the same time, he was receiving pressure from his fans to slide for Vaughn. So how did it work? How do OTF and the defendant banks co-conspirators plan? How did they conspire to slide for Vaughn to get back to seek revenge?
Starting point is 02:41:50 How? Well, I want to introduce you to do another couple other key players in the game. Okay. You're going to hear about them. You're going to hear about them all over this truck. First, Casey Hester. He's also known as a OTF Jam. OTF Jam grew up with Banks.
Starting point is 02:42:10 You'll hear that King Vaughn and Banks. and D.D. OTF Jam was from the same gang. You'll hear that Dirk kept OTF Jam close. You'll learn that OTF Jam is a cold-blooded killer. And of course, Dirk knew that. You learned that Defendant Banks kept OTP Jam in the fold. While OTF Jam was in prison for attempted murder, Defendant Banks supported him financially by putting money on his books. When OTF Jam got out of prison, Defendant Banks gave him more money to support him. OTF Jam was brought into the fold as a trusted member of OTF, but not because he was a talented rapper.
Starting point is 02:42:51 It was because he was muscle because he could be easily deployed to do things like kill Cuando Rondo, which is exactly what he did. That might be a little fraudulent slip or whatever because he didn't kill Quano Rondo. Anyway, you will learn OTF Jam was one of the first.
Starting point is 02:43:13 of the masked shooters I showed you before. You will see that he, along with Lindsay, and another individual who will learn about later, they were one of those men who unloaded their firearm to kill Kwando. They flew across the country to kill Kwando. Now, OTF Jam has pled guilty to this murder. He's pled guilty. I told you all this. He pled guilty.
Starting point is 02:43:36 He's agreed to cooperate with the government and so you will hear from him on the stand. You will learn how he is. was deployed as a hitman by Smirkyo and the OTF co-conspirators to go get Cuondo in L.A. Then there's defendant Wilson. Didi, what up, nigga? He's also known as OTF Didi. He calls himself the threat or big threat. By the way, here's a photo of him on Instagram.
Starting point is 02:44:06 He calls himself the threat. You will learn that defendant Wilson, Didi, was also a trust. the member of OTF and associate of Dirk Banks. You'll learn about his role in the murder and not only did he fly out to kill Quanda Rondo that he recruited two of the hitman. He recruited them.
Starting point is 02:44:26 Okay? Including his associate defendant, Lindsay. So remember Lindsay who didn't tell? So he's saying the other person, the third person who's on the stand got recruited by dude. You will see text messages showing that recruitment and you will hear that
Starting point is 02:44:43 OTFDD that defendant Wilson was in one of the stalking cars helping coordinate where Cuando Ronda was. Then he helped allow the shooters to get away. Then there is Kavanaugh Grant. Ah, man, you learned that Kavon Grant was defendant banks' right-hand man, like his personal assistant. You hear the things he did for defending banks, like go shopping for him, helping book transportation, drive him around.
Starting point is 02:45:15 But just like OTF, wait, but just like OTF that had a criminal side, so did Kavana Grant. Okay. You will learn Kavon Grant was part of a stolen car ring. And one of his main jobs was to procure stolen cars and stolen guns. And that's exactly what he did in this day of murder. You would learn that Defendant Banks at his direction, Kavon Grant, procured the stolen cars and guns to be using this murder. And he tried to kill Cuando.
Starting point is 02:45:56 And that happened to kill Savaya Robinson. And just like OTF Jam, Kavana has pled guilty to this murder, and you will hear from him because he's agreed to cooperate. With the government, he'll tell you about flying across the country and a private jet with defendant banks. As the trope mobilized, as flights were booked for the co-conspirators to fly out and kill Cuano Rondo.
Starting point is 02:46:18 as I said before, Dirk was consumed with getting revenge. Consumed with sliding for Vaughn. What you're going to hear is that he uses wealth. And he used his pure strings to put pressure on the OTF conspirators to seek revenge. You'll even see messages where he threatens to cut off his OTF members financially if they don't get revenge. You learn it wasn't just limited to QWondo.
Starting point is 02:46:50 defendant banks uses OTF members to hunt his rivals you will see messages for example in his Instagram post that defendant banks sent another rival oh sent to another rival in Chicago I got them hunting you and that's exactly what he did to Quano Rondo he had his guys his OTF guys hunting them up so when the first opportunity struck when the co-conspirators took action you'll hear that in May 2021 Quano Rondo hit a concert in rural Georgia and defendant banks and his co-conspirators decided it was time to take their shot at revenge. You'll hear that defendant Banks and Kvon Grant and other co-conspirators conspired to go shoot up Kwondo after the concert.
Starting point is 02:47:35 And at the following concert at any gas station, no, at a gas station in a city called Blackshire, Georgia, the co-conspirators took their first shot. They fired multiple rounds at Kondo's car, but they missed. You'll also see that defendant banks was tracking. Just that. In one of his phones, you're going to see images that Kwanurondo had a show in rural Georgia. The news alert right after showing that he was shot.
Starting point is 02:48:03 Let's fast forward to then November, August 2022. Opportunity strikes again. Defendant Banks, his co-conspirators, learned that Kwanarondo was in L.A., and they determined, again, that it was time to get back. They're going to strike in L.A. While Kwanda was vulnerable, he's a fish out of water in a city that's not his. So what the co-conspirate do? You will learn that defendant banks and Kavana Grant,
Starting point is 02:48:28 his personal assistant, are flying back from Miami on a private jet, PJ. Jet Seton. Defendant Smirkio mobilizes troops. You'll hear that around that time in the morning of August 18, the flights are starting to get booked for the OTF members and the other hitmen to fly from Chicago to Los Angeles, and you will hear that defendant banks tried to distance himself from it.
Starting point is 02:48:50 Here's a text message where he says, don't book no flights under my name involved with me as the flights are being booked for these co-conspirators from Chicago to LA. You'll also learn that this is not the only time that the defendant banks should distance himself and evade law enforcement and hide its criminality. For example, you're going to see threads
Starting point is 02:49:09 in Defendant Bank's own words where he says, delete the thread and start a new one. You will learn that the co-conspirators use other methods to attempt to avoid law enforcement like encrypted communications. So let's go back to August 2022. As the troops are mobilized and people are trying to fly in,
Starting point is 02:49:28 not to Los Angeles. Again, remember, they try to avoid law enforcement, so they flew into San Diego, which is about an hour away. Cuanderando is not in San Diego. He's actually in L.A. So you will learn that a co-conspirators start flying in. There's OTF jam in the red shoes.
Starting point is 02:49:43 Right there. Okay. The same red shoes is used during the murder. Another co-conspirator next to him is in the green shirt, who you learn about who is one of the drivers of the stalking car. And as I mentioned before, defendant Wilson starts recruiting. He recruits two of his associates, a man named Keith Jones and defendant Lizzie
Starting point is 02:50:01 to come out and seek a reward, a reward for killing Oquandar, a reward for defendant banks, from defendant banks for killing Guantanamo. And what you learn in here is that the two men flew out with a promise that they were going to be paid. As I said, this is a case about revenge, but you will also learn
Starting point is 02:50:21 it's about a case about reward because what you'll hear is that defendant Lindsay and Keith Jones had nothing to do with Cuando Rondo. This was not their beef. This is Smirkio's beef. This is Diti's beef. This is OTP's beef.
Starting point is 02:50:36 But for those other guys, it's not their beef. They're friends of Wilson. Wilson recruited them. They're from a different neighborhood of Chicago. They got nothing to do with Vaughn. They flew out because they were promised to money from Dirk to get Cochano Rondo. Keith Jones is a third shooter.
Starting point is 02:50:55 Okay? Another one of those maskmen I showed you earlier. Right? By the way, they just mentioned them right here, I think. Yeah, Keith Jones. And you will learn, so we have Lindsay, first shooter, Keith Jones, OTF Jam, right? And you will learn that he also pled guilty to this murder. So Keith Jones is a cooperator too.
Starting point is 02:51:17 So we have two shooters. There was three shooters who did the kill him. Two of them are cooperating. This is going to be tough for Dirk chat. Hey, drill. This needs to be its own video. The opening statement for the prosecutor, I'm reading it line by line. This is everything said to court.
Starting point is 02:51:39 So make this his own video. Okay, cool. All right, and he has agreed to cooperate with the government. So Keith Jones is cooperating. OTF Jam is cooperating. And Kavon Grant is cooperating. Okay. And you will hear from him about on the morning of August 18th, while he was sitting at home in Chicago, he got a call from defendant Wilson.
Starting point is 02:52:01 Didi called him and said, yo, come to L.A. to go get some money. This money is going to be for the murder of Cuando Rondo. And that's exactly what he did. That's exactly what he did. You learn about the frantic nature of that morning. Everybody learned that they had got their guy, that Cuando was vulnerable, that he was in L.A. And you will see that the co-conspirators flew out with just the shirts on their back because they're going for one purpose.
Starting point is 02:52:30 So no luggage, no carry-on, no nothing. They're coming just to kill Cuando Rondo. Harris is the surveillance footage from San Diego Airport, which shows Keith Jones, defendant Wilson, and Lindsay. And they're all there. You'll hear from the evening of the 18th to the August afternoon. of the 19th over two-day span, co-conspirators tracked Cuando
Starting point is 02:52:55 waiting for their opportunity to ambush. When they all came up from San Diego to Los Angeles, it was late at night, but they thought they would take their shot. You will hear that they went to Cuando's hotel and they waited outside. They ain't see Cuando. So what did they,
Starting point is 02:53:10 so what they did, they went to a hotel asleep. But you will learn that, is that the hotel was paid for by Smirkio. Just like the flights, that was also paid. for by Smirkio. In the morning of August 19th,
Starting point is 02:53:26 after sleeping at the hotel, they woke up ready for action. They got in these two cars heavily tinted, one was you learned and was stolen. That was the hot car. He had a fake plate. Kavon Grant obtained in order to evade law enforcement.
Starting point is 02:53:42 And that for over from around early in the morning until 5.30 in the afternoon, they followed and followed. And they waited and they waited for their opportunity to kill. You're going to see a lot of surveillance footage. And I'm just giving you a sampling right here.
Starting point is 02:54:01 Here, Cuando, Rondo, Saviya Robinson during that black escalate, the two are in a vehicle that's tinted, but one stolen cars following them from the hotel, okay? And it's following them to a dispensary, to a clothing store, followed waiting and lining wait. Here, Cuando and Savas entering the clothing store in West Hollywood, the co-conspirators circling the block, waiting. When they pull up to the gas station, stolen car,
Starting point is 02:54:23 they pulled up into the alley behind, so the shooters popped out and unloaded. Here's a video, it don't got no sound. Yep, 5.30 p.m. on a Friday outside of Beverly Center. Here's another angle if you missed that first one. You'll learn that Savi Robinson and Cuando where they were in the back of that black escalator and the shooters were going to come around the corner.
Starting point is 02:54:48 18 bullets, y'all. And as I mentioned before, as the shooters, fled defendant Wilson was waiting around the corner to get away and then shortly after the murder the shooters and the co-conspirers decided to get out of dodge and go back to shy rack but not before grabbing a bite to eat you can't live California without a little bit of in and out you know here's the surveillance footage from in and out this OTF jam you know he's a little fat so he had to get a double double. Defendant Wilson, Lindsay, and even Keith Jones. Yep, yep, that's OTFDD. Yep, that's
Starting point is 02:55:23 Defendant Wilson. You'll see comparisons of the surveillance footage. Defendant Lindsay is in the in and out wearing the same shoes that he wore early in the day. He changed his clothes. He changed him shoes. Same with OTF Jam. He was wearing the same red shoes and Keith Jones wore them same gray shoes. So the cocospurs had their flights paid for. It got booked home. It was paid for again by Smirkyo. They celebrated
Starting point is 02:55:53 and had a bite to eat. You will hear that following the death of Lilapob, this is a picture of them headed back from the airport. Shirts on their back, defendant Lindsey Key Jones, Wilson, OTF Jam, and all the driver leave in LA.
Starting point is 02:56:12 You will hear that after the murder, banks and his co-conspirators celebrated mocked and taunted the death of Lil Pop. And the attempted murder of Rondo in memes, in private. They celebrated because they got some get back. But while the co-conspirators were stalking,
Starting point is 02:56:29 Cuando, were tracking him. They were also being tracked because it turns out one of the cars, not the stolen one, the BMW, the other white car had a GPS on it, and law enforcement was able to track that car everywhere it went. what you're going to learn is that the car that was driven by Kavana Grant, defendant bank's personal assistant,
Starting point is 02:56:53 and that car repeatedly went back and forth to a rental house where Smirkio was laying his head. Remember, I told you that OTF Vani and Smirkio flew back on the morning of August 18th, the same day the shooters came in from Miami in a private jet, and you will hear that OTI Avani and that BMW went back and forth to this house, including after they missed their opportunity to get Cuando on the 18th. Yes, you hear that in addition to the GPS data, you're going to see some cell site location data,
Starting point is 02:57:28 showing the approximate location of all the co-conspirators who participated in the on-the-ground stalking. And you'll see that Didi, Lindsay, their phones were always traveling. got the GPS on y'all. Following Cuando with OTF Jam, with Kavangrand, all throughout Los Angeles, from downtown, all the way to the Beverly Center, and then they went to in and out. But yeah, the story don't end with murder.
Starting point is 02:58:01 Savas Robinson, the murder of Saviari Robinson, because at some point, Smirkyo and his co-conspirators felt the walls were closing in. You're going to see some messages from Smirkio talking to who is co-conspirators including Didi with suspicion that Jam was cooperating. So Dirk knew. This is in August
Starting point is 02:58:20 2023. By the way, chat. Academics interview with Lil Dirk. When was that? No, no, no. That's not the right date. No, I got to look at it on Spotify.
Starting point is 02:58:35 Spotify. Yeah. It's on Spotify. Oh, oh, we did it in May. Okay, good. May. You see, May. So it appears that between my interview with Dirk and the next couple months,
Starting point is 02:58:51 he knew one of his guys were snitching. Okay, it was in August. This is Smirkio saying, Jam just get ready to snitch, blood. Clear is day. He's going to tell soon. And then he doubles down by saying, as long as we don't break,
Starting point is 02:59:08 Jam could tell him whatever. That's Smirkio's own words. And what you will hear is that, as I said before, you will learn is that he was right. Smirkio was right. OTF Jam was in fact cooperating with the government and you are going to hear from him today about his relationship with Smirkio, with Didi and his role in this murder. So when the walls that closed in, you're going to hear that on October, on October morning in 2024, the FBI executed multiple search warrants
Starting point is 02:59:45 at different co-conspirators' homes, and you will learn that just hours after that, defendant Smirkio tried to flee the country. He tried to book multiple flights to get out of the Dodge. He tried to leave the United States. And when he saw that the FBI was at the private jet terminal, he fled from them and refused instructions to get out of the car. Smirk, get out of the car.
Starting point is 03:00:07 He knew the walls that closed in. As you sit here and listen to this throughout this trial, the evidence is going to be clear that those shooters that you saw those men on the ground in those two cars that stalked and killed Saviare Robinson
Starting point is 03:00:20 that D.D. was in one car and he helped the guys get away. He recruited people in that Lindsay was the first guy who opt out the car and rained bullets on Saviah Robinson, aka Lil' Pop and Cuando that this murder occurred and that Saviya Robinson died
Starting point is 03:00:37 as a result of this conspiracy but for what and why it will be clear It's all because of Smirkio's revenge. You're going to see messages where defendant Smirkyo says, we stain out of people's wars. They don't hop in the words. It's crazy.
Starting point is 03:00:57 They don't slide or hurt motherfuckers. Leaving it all up to us. Leaving it all up to us. For their crimes. These defendants have been charged with five counts. Conspiracy. Stalking resulted in death. Murder for hire.
Starting point is 03:01:15 After you've heard all the evidence, that's why, that for what? That motive is going to be clear. It was Smirkyo's beef. It was Smirkyo's money. It was Smirkyo's hitman. It was Smirkyo's Get Back. And that, ladies and gentlemen,
Starting point is 03:01:34 is why Savaya Robinson, aka Little Pob, is dead. So, at a conclusion of this trial, after y'all have heard and seen it listen to all the evidence and we'll have another opportunity to get up here again and speak to y'all and at that time we're going to ask that you just come to the only conclusion after seeing the evidence we're going to present it's going to be that you find the most appropriate and the only right thing to do is to find these defendants guilty of all count holy all right that's the government right there ah i got to look at the chat did you enjoy me reading that or no it's kind of long i'm sorry Sorry. It's got a long. Pause. Extra pause on that. You feel me? I got to do the pause on that. Let me pull the chat up, man.
Starting point is 03:02:30 Man. Again, we got the transcript. We're reading, listen, and we're still going to go with our guys who are in court in their updates, but we have exactly every word that was said in court. I just got to read it to you. I just got to read it to you. That was open a statement by the government. they said
Starting point is 03:02:54 well here they said let's stand and stretch for a moment while Mr. Banks' counsel prepares his opening okay so we are going to get as a Ms. Goldberg you could begin when you're ready

Starting point is 03:03:25 Let me make sure my dogs are fed, you know? Just give me one second. So when I come back, give me two minutes. I'm going to read, on Interrupted, the opening statement by the defense, but specifically Dirk's defense, okay? Dirk's defense. Here we go. And ask for the surveillance.
Starting point is 03:03:47 Oh, here we go. Take those clips. Give me a second. And then take the surveillance clips. side by side and start trying to match the killers up, the shooters, with the blacked up pictures
Starting point is 03:04:03 from the shooting earlier that day. And you know how he was able to figure out who these niggas were? Well, all the niggas kept on the same shoes. One of the niggas had on the same draws and both he had on the drive, he had on the same draws, that he had on an In-N-Out Burger,
Starting point is 03:04:27 and as he did during the killing. But not only that, the nigger had on, he had some pants with some writing on it, and I think it said, rags to riches. The investigator Googled rags to riches jeans. It said it pulled up a Google search
Starting point is 03:04:56 to a boutique in Chicago. It's only two of the stores. So he said, oh, these guys must be from Chicago. Alerted the Chicago Police Department. And they ran back with a face of the name somehow. The other nigger, I think he just had, he out on the same red hat, red shoe, like, and from the same bodies. Like, this guy was very meticulous.
Starting point is 03:05:28 They was looking at every detail on these people. And he matched him up perfectly. So in my mind, I'm thinking, well, shit. He matched one nigga up by the white spot on the back of his shoe. You mean to tell me, bitch, you looked at, that's some real investigative. You know, the island of them people are like, and you're a real investigator. Like, ain't that, like, this is a real investigator. This motherfucker said, I found him because the dot on the back of his shoe and the dot right there
Starting point is 03:05:58 and the height, weight, the ratio, I knew that was him. This one had the writing on the pants, and I Googled the pants in the right, and I called, and it showed me in Chicago, and I called the, store and asked for the surveillance of when the nigger bought the shit in the store and then I called to Chicago Police Department like he like he he carried then after that he got the names so then guess what he did he started now this is where the interstate shit comes in at he started Googling the airlines and he sent out a he sent out a search warrant They have a system where you could send a search warrant for all airlines.
Starting point is 03:07:00 United Airlines pushback, Southwest pushback, showing all the niggas pretty much that was involved. DeAndre, Lindsay, not Grant, but like Keith Jones jam, all them. He got them coming off of various different flights from Chicago to San Diego just days before the murder. On video. Picture. We've seen it. These things is caught red. What?
Starting point is 03:07:47 Shot, we're here. We're in the building. He got them coming fresh off the plane. Chat. Like, off the... I'm like, D. Chat, when's the last thing you seen Big Act do an eight-hour stream, man? So first they're trying.
Starting point is 03:08:00 I told you we going crazy. Okay? We are going crazy, y'all. What I done told y'all? What I done told y'all. Huh? Perfect. So now we're here.
Starting point is 03:08:31 And we are at the point where we're going to read the opening statement, the opening, you know, get down by Smirkio's lawyers. Drew Finland, Brian Steele, but they chose to go with Marissa Goldberg. Y'all ready? Let's go. Marissa Goldberg starts by saying, thank you, Your Honor. honor. Thank you. Everybody knew I took care of Von. Whatever you saw, I help him do it, everything from close to birth. That was a statement in a recorded interview with law enforcement.
Starting point is 03:09:10 That statement was actually made by Kavon Grant. Bonnie, that's you. You heard about him in the government opening statement, didn't you? He made the statement to law enforcement that on August or October 24th of 2024 after law enforcement has just busted down his door at the Wardoff Astoria in Chicago, Illinois, when they're executing arrest warrant to take him into custody, he made that statement
Starting point is 03:09:40 that he did everything for Vaughn. Law enforcement came into that suite that Kavan was staying in with his girl. He was busting him cheeks, wasn't he? They sat him down, they talked to him, they talked to him on a recorded interview, and they said, They detailed the investigation that they've been through for some time.
Starting point is 03:09:59 Since this incident, she just heard about on August 19, 2020. They detailed this to him. They told him that they had gone through the investigation and their conclusion was that a result of that was that Vani was in charge. Let me say it again, y'all. The feds after kicking his door down at the war. he's piping his bitch out. They said, we did the investigation on Pop's murder. You're in charge.
Starting point is 03:10:32 You're the leader. They said, you're looking at the rest of your life in prison. This is murder. So, we're going to believe you're the leader until you tell us, get this, somebody else is the leader. You just heard from the government that this case was about reviving. Oh, you're right. Absolutely true.
Starting point is 03:11:03 You're right. We agree on that. This case is about revenge. This is a case about relationships. And, oh, that is true. But the relationships go back further than what the government wants you to believe. It don't go back a few years. They go back decades.
Starting point is 03:11:17 They go back to familiar relationships in Chicago, Illinois, between two fathers who passed that relationship on to their two sons. And their two sons have names. is remarkably similar. Daveon and Kvon. Daveon Bennett, as you've heard, he's referred to as King Vaughn. And Kvon Grant,
Starting point is 03:11:41 known as Vonny. Their two daddies went back decades, extremely close. You'll hear that Kvon Grant has some nicknames. People call him Vani. People also call him cause. You'll see that Kavon Grant
Starting point is 03:11:57 and King Vaughn, Dave Vaughn Bennett and when Kavon Grant got the nickname Cous, it was because of his relationship with King Vaughn. There were cousins. His entire identity stemmed from the fact that he had a close relationship with King Vaughn. It wasn't just that when they were kids, King Vaughn was a Chicago guy, but at some point he moved to Atlanta. And when he moved to Atlanta, he moved in with his cousin.
Starting point is 03:12:23 He moved in with Kavon. They started working together. Kavanaughan started managing. kind of like the day-to-day business for King Vaughn. King Vaughan was growing up in the music industry. He was becoming more and more well-known. He was becoming a popular musical artist. And so Kavanaugh had took it up on himself to manage him,
Starting point is 03:12:41 do the day-day things. But even more than that, he manages finances. They lived together for some period of time. They had even shared bank accounts. Kavon and Devon has shared bank accounts. They were as close as two men could possibly be. Pause. Bumba Claude.
Starting point is 03:13:01 That was the top of me. Closest two niggas could be. Hold me pour some liquor. I got to pause that one, brother. Talking about it with closest two men could be. Holy. Fire after that. Anyway.
Starting point is 03:13:16 They were tight. Pause. They were thick. Pause. And you were here that King Vaughn's startup. It was rising. and that tragedy struck on November 6th of 2020 in Atlanta, Georgia, outside of a hookah lounge,
Starting point is 03:13:39 kind of like an after-hour spot. Kavon Grant, because he was there that night with King Vaughan. He was at the Luke Hookah Lounge with some other people that night. King Vaughn was killed. That just started out kind of like a fist fight between King Vaughan and Quano. You heard about his name from the government in their opening statement, but there was a fist fight between these two men and other people got involved. Yes, it turned into a shootout.
Starting point is 03:14:01 Yes, King Vaughn was sure. shot. He was shot down in the streets. It was Vaughney. It was cause. That was there. Who had to frantically run to his car. He was driving a Dodge Hellcat. He drove up his hellcat.
Starting point is 03:14:17 He pulled a long side where King Vaughn was bleeding out in the street. And that someone had to pick up Vaughn and place him in the backseat of that goddamn car. And Vani had to drive all frantically trying to get his cousin to the hospital. He was the driver that night. drove as fast as he could He's running red lights He could get to Grady Memorial in Atlanta His cousin that he's tight with
Starting point is 03:14:40 Tight as could be Was bleeding out in the back of his car And King Von told Vani He told Cuss Why did you let me get shot Why didn't you do something? So Cush drove to Grady Memorial They dropped off King Vaughn
Starting point is 03:15:05 And he was hoping he was praying that it was going to be okay. And actually, they had one more conversation. One more conversation over the phone. It was cause. It was voting. I'm going to hit you right after. Let me just finish reading this. My boy.
Starting point is 03:15:25 Sorry, my brother. I'm going to hit you right after. Shout to Armani. He was returning my call. That's my guy. I'm in a reading floor. I'm in like a flow state. Because somebody tell him, I'm in a flow state right now.
Starting point is 03:15:39 You know what I'm in my flow state. You know? I'm going to call you right after. Actually, it's going to take me five minutes to read this, I think. Let me scroll down. Yeah, five minutes. I'm calling you right back, Armand. Promise you.
Starting point is 03:15:51 So they say, yeah, one more conversation. They had one more conversation over the phone in which CUS, in which Vonn, he was able to tell King Vaughn, Vaughn, I love you. But unfortunately, King Vaughn didn't make it. He died. It had a substantial impact on Kavan on cause. It was not only because of personal impact.
Starting point is 03:16:19 It was obviously a traumatic impact. He was there the night that is. He doesn't die, he was unable to get him to the hospital fast enough to save him. But it was also an identity impact. The whole identity was tied up in the fact that he was King Vaughn's guy. He was cause. He was the guy that could get things done for him. He was left floundering.
Starting point is 03:16:40 And you'll hear that on the night that King Vaughn died, it did have a big impact. And not only just on Vonney, Vaughn was a beloved musical artist, the whole nation mourned him. He had a lot of fans. There were celebrities, posting tributes, things like that. But yeah, of course. Yeah, Dirk was impacted too. And you've heard a little bit about Dirk. But let me tell you a little bit more.
Starting point is 03:17:05 Smirkio is 33-year-old man from Chirac. He gained his success in the music industry, but he's more than that. He's married. He got kids. He is a public face, and he was a public face of that connection with King Vaughn. But it wasn't just Smirky. that was impacted that night. The whole community around Chicago was impacted.
Starting point is 03:17:24 Lots of folks felt the loss of King Von and you will see that. You will see text messages from other folks indicating that they really felt that loss. They felt that trauma, particularly Vani. So Vani was left floundering. What is he going to do now? He saw an opportunity. He saw that Smirk was also upset. He was upset too.
Starting point is 03:17:43 You will see that some of the messages that he lost somebody who was close to him, he was frustrated. He was angry. He was expressing himself. Part of Smirk's appeal is that he's a vulnerable ban. He made expressing emotions and feeling acceptable and he lived what he did out in public.
Starting point is 03:18:04 His private messages also expressed those feelings of pain and hurt. Then another young man was killed before his time. You will see that. He will express those emotions, but he was not the only one. But what he did was took those feelings and channeled them. He channeled them into what he knew how to do best, which was make music.
Starting point is 03:18:29 Yeah, you heard what the government said, that this is not a case about music. We agree. It's not a case about music. The government is going to present you with songs and lyrics and try to say this is some sort of expression of hatred in Mr. Banks, but that's not true. That was him channeling emotions through his artwork,
Starting point is 03:18:47 and that it was really an expression of the way that. the community around him felt. The government will say that Dirk has a nickname. They like to call him blood. You will see some of the text messages. They refer to him as blood. And that is really an exaggeration because the term blood is used back and forth
Starting point is 03:19:08 among many people in that community. It's like brother or bro. You will see individuals referring to each other as blood. Back and forth. That's not really a nickname. That's just term of endearment. Smirk had another name. They called him,
Starting point is 03:19:22 voice. And what that came from is that it stemmed from being the voice of the people, the voice of the community, of the trenches of the folks who were downtrodden. By the way, I want to hear the white woman say off the trenches. I wish I could see that. But he was known for that. He was known for making music express those feelings of the people around him, not just himself, the feelings of hurt. Because Banks knew how that felt. He grew up with nothing. He channeled that into his music. and yes, with that public face, the nation was more than King Vaughn. You'll see that there was some pressure. If you could say some of the reaction from the public was wanted him to do something or say something,
Starting point is 03:20:02 you will see some messages. And this was a trolling campaign. People just wanted to get under his skin. They would say things like slide for Vaughn. Like there would be a social post where people would just flooded with these slide for Vaughn comments. It was trolling. Banks acknowledged that he understood it was trolling. And the reason that was directed towards him
Starting point is 03:20:23 was because it was a public face. There were all of these other people in the community feeling that loss. But there was no way for the public to channel that towards anyone else. He just happened to be the only one they could channel it too. The government is going to claim that Mr. Banks is some sort of leader. You heard about OTF, only the family. Oh, absolutely.
Starting point is 03:20:44 Yeah, he had a music label. It's called Only the Family. He had art assigned to the label. Yeah, it was a successful label. but that's what he's a leader of. When they claim that he's some sort of, you know, you got some sort of control or leadership of other people, you will see that's actually the opposite in the evidence.
Starting point is 03:21:02 The people really didn't listen to him. Like if he expressed something, they would ignore him. They would disrespect him. And in many cases, they even stole from him. That is the opposite of how you would treat a leader. What he gave people were opportunity. Absolutely. He came from nothing.
Starting point is 03:21:18 He wanted to build people up around him. He kept people near him. You will see that some of the folks in this case were people that he did grow up with. Absolutely. He wanted to make sure that the people he was with get success. They got success too. But it wasn't a leader of some sort of criminal group. This was helping folks around him.
Starting point is 03:21:39 You hear about a lot of events from the 19th of August to 22. And honestly, on behalf of Mr. Banks, we agree. This was a tragedy. We agree it was a tragedy that Savire Robinson was. killed. But the reality is Mr. Banks had nothing to do with it. He was not there. He was not connected to it. And so there would be a little fight on behalf of Mr. Banks regarding anything that happened on the day of August 19, 2022. The government has made some sort of claim about Banks waiting for a call that day. Like he wasn't there, but he was waiting for a call.
Starting point is 03:22:19 And you'll probably hear some testimony from cooperators to say something to that effect. But let's be very clear, there is no corroboration of that. The case will break down into kind of three different categories of evidence. One being law enforcement witnesses. Those guys, they got no personal knowledge of nothing. For the most part, these law enforcement witnesses will take the stand. They'll just try to bring in things like, oh, there's text messages and social media. And you saw some of the things in the government opening statement without context.
Starting point is 03:22:49 You will see a lot of context around those statements. No text messages are completely contrary to what the government wants you to believe. They have no other information that they can bring. No witnesses, no lay witnesses, nobody who could add context. Yes, this was me. Yes, I was on this message. None of that. That doesn't exist.
Starting point is 03:23:09 Ooh, that's kind of interesting. Remember, Dirk only really talked to Didi. Right? He talked to Didi. Pretty much only Didi. He did talk to Vani, but I don't know if he said incriminating shit to Vani on text. So Vani can't testify to Dirk, which would be smart. If everybody's claiming Vani's a Bruford or like some goofy, you wouldn't text him with incriminating shit.
Starting point is 03:23:35 So Dirk is standing on. I said no incriminating shit to none of these federal witnesses, right? Okay. They want you to take these messages and interpret them without witnesses or context. For example, you saw the text message that says, and this isn't the government open and state. and it said from Banks, don't book no flights under no name associated with me. You'll hear the context of that is very different.
Starting point is 03:23:58 It had nothing to do with the flights being booked for other people on August 18th. That would even make sense because he says don't book no flights. Flights were booked anyway. It has to do with another event that Mr. Banks was supposed to go to. That is what he's talking about. That is what's being taken out of context. And you will hear from the cooperators. The government talks about that.
Starting point is 03:24:21 They want to call them cooperators because these guys aren't really cooperative, right? These guys are beholden to the government. You've heard they already pled guilty to murder. The only way out of jail for them for any day in their life is to testify and testify against these individuals, particularly smirk. And they'll be the only witnesses outside law enforcement. You'll hear from a man named Jerome Casey Hester. That is the snitch known as OTF jam. The government was honest when they said in their opening statement,
Starting point is 03:24:55 that guy's a killer. True, absolutely. It's also desperate. You hear that he was in prison for most of his entire adult life. For about 12 years, the guy was in prison. And yes, Banks did the most to help him out. When Jam got out that jam, he got to 50. He put some money on his books when he was prison.
Starting point is 03:25:17 They came from the same place. He does that with everybody who's down. downtrodden. And people who were in prison are about downtrodden as you could be. So he put a little money on his books, gotten some opportunities when he got out, because reentry is important to him, reentry in society. And you will hear Jam testify that he was out for a short period of time from February 22 to May 2023. That's it. The day he got locked up in May 22, he started cooperating that fucking day. Why? Because he's a fucking rat. He's dead. He's dead. He's Desperate. He couldn't go back to jail for another day. He's not like that. He's a massive cooperator because of that. He's been interviewed by law enforcement for over 30 times. But only a couple of those were actually recorded. He will testify that he came out on August 19, 2022. And he didn't really know why he was going there. He didn't care. The government will talk about and they talked about being in their opening statement about a reward.
Starting point is 03:26:21 He will say he had no idea about no reward that day. There was no direction. He will testify that the majority of his interactions were with Kavanaugh Grant, who was present. You'll also hear from another co-operator. His name is Keith Jones. He's a scum. Y'all heard about him. He almost has no connection to Dirk.
Starting point is 03:26:44 Smirk, you don't even notice. And you will hear that when he was first interviewed by law enforcement for more than five hours in a recorded statement, he never even mentioned smirk. No matter how hard he was pressed. Those agents pushed him. They told him how serious this was, that he's looking at the rest of his life in jail. This was recorded.
Starting point is 03:27:05 Not once. In that five hours of pressing, promising, promising, did the guy ever mention Smirkio? It wasn't until another interview, which was not recorded, that he decided to fold like, a fucking lawn chair and give the government what they wanted. He has no connection to Dirk.
Starting point is 03:27:27 But actually he does have connection to someone else. Keith Jones had a connection to Casey Hester to OTF Jam. They actually went back. The ties run deep. As we talked about before, these guys went back to Juvie, Juvenile Hall. That's how deep it goes between them. What's y'all go here from Oteevani? he's a well-known snitch.
Starting point is 03:27:52 He's going to testify off the government. He's going to testify that, you know, he was the guy that was the personal assistant. But that's not really true. That was a misnomer. Okay? You're trying to minimize his own involvement in this situation. He did way more than that.
Starting point is 03:28:10 This guy had ties to a criminal underground. The government just told you that was true. This guy had the most ties to that world. He was the guy that did everything on August 19, 2020. He booked the hotel. He secured the cars. He, he, um, one of the cars was a rental. He rented the car.
Starting point is 03:28:32 You hear one of the car was a stolen car. He secured the stolen car. On a rental car, he secured a fake tag that was put on the rental car. That he got to the hotel and he went off, he went to R.E.I. The store that he bought ski masks for all the individuals that the arranged that he arranged for the sprinter van to take them in San Diego to Los Angeles. He accompanied them on August 18th
Starting point is 03:28:54 and accompanied them on August 19th. Vani was there for all of this. He did all this. But this wasn't the first time that he did that. You heard the government say there was another incident in Georgia. In a small town, kind of close to Savannah, called Blackshire, Georgia.
Starting point is 03:29:11 Guess who arranged that? Kavon Grant. Now I know some people are going to think this is like, because they could editorialize in this opening statement. So they might be like, oh, you're snitching on Vani. Vani already admitted this. So because they know Vani admitted it, they're just using his own words against him.
Starting point is 03:29:29 So they're not snitching. This was a concert of Quano Rondo was performing. Kavon Grant secured the cars, secured the guns, secured the people. He did all this back in May 2021. And thankfully, they were unsuccessful. Nobody was hurt. But this is his M.O.
Starting point is 03:29:44 This was Kavon Grand's M.O. The gas station. It was a shooting at the gas station with stolen cars, stolen guns. OTIFVani arranged it. He did it again, August 222. Now he will claim that some of the things were paid for on a company card called AstronautSounds credit card. And AstronautSounds is a company that's associated with banks. That is true.
Starting point is 03:30:10 But Kavanaugh-Grant, as working for that company, had access to these credit cards. that he was the one that used the credit cards. It was not unusual for him to be able to access that money. And when he was asked on October 24th, tell us about who was behind this, a light bulb went off in his head. Well, whose credit card was used? That is what he told law enforcement.
Starting point is 03:30:42 Whose credit card was used? He knew. He knew he used that credit card. But he knew that Dirk Banks had a public face and that they wanted to know about a big fish. They were pressing him about a big fish and he thought, oh man, I got an insurance policy. I got a big fish I could give them. So they won't look at all the things that I've done. And you will hear that on October 24th, 2024 when Mr. Banks did try to leave town.
Starting point is 03:31:09 Yes, he booked flights. This is true. But it was a place that had gone too many times before. he's a performer and that he went there to a place who would feel comfortable because he knew that stuff was going down. I mean, that's just true. These are people he knew. He heard about these things going on.
Starting point is 03:31:32 He's a public face. He's not trying to get away. People know who he is. He was trying to get some space. Okay, this is horrible. I don't know why they... That happened. But it was for the purpose of giving.
Starting point is 03:31:47 Smirkio some space. There was no charges against him at the time. And we expect you to see some of these photos from the music videos and podcasts that Dirk Banks did during the course of this trial. And in the effort to show you that he has some sort of thought process or motive, but this is art, this is performance,
Starting point is 03:32:13 so what he did for a living. But in reality on the left, that is a scene from shooting on November 6th, 2020 in Atlanta. that is Kavana Grant driving up in that Black Hellcat. On the right, that's a shooting from Blackshire, Georgia on May 2nd, 2021, a drive-by at the gas station on the bottom at August 19, 2022 in Los Angeles. And there's one common denominator for all three of those incidents.
Starting point is 03:32:42 Kavon-Grant, Oteevani, was at number one. He was at number two. And he was at number three, all three. incidents, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, you've heard the charges in this goddamn case. There's allegations of stalking and murder for hire. As far as stalking goes, it's absolutely clear. Dirk had nothing to do with that. He wasn't there. He was living it up in Encino. You saw the house. He was living there. Wasn't there temporarily? That's where he was living with his wife, India, and his kids, who's working out of Los Angeles because he's a performer.
Starting point is 03:33:23 And you'll hear that on August 18th, Mr. Banks was in Miami, Florida. He was there to record a music video with DJ Callet. Very prominent music producer in the industry. Banks had a lot of stuff going on in his life at the time. He had responsibilities and engagements. He couldn't be sitting waiting for a phone call. Like, that's not what he would do. There's allegation of murder for hire.
Starting point is 03:33:52 For hire? What? Okay, payment. Let's talk about that. If you want to follow the money as evidence in this trial, you're not going to be able to. You know why? Because there is no fucking money to follow. There is not going to be any evidence of direction, no instruction, no promise, no assurance, no payment, no bounty, nobody got paid.
Starting point is 03:34:12 This is murder for hire. Allegations that involves something where nobody gets paid. Smirk is a performer. He won a Grammy. There's only one individual who has been practicing to take the stand for a long time. He's been practicing his performance, hoping he gets an Oscar. Mr. Banks is a performer. He's a celebrity.
Starting point is 03:34:36 But he sits here today as a 33-year-old young man in a very, very serious situation. This is not a performance. This is not a show. This is reality. And I know you as jurors will take your job extremely serious and will listen to all the evidence in this case, and you'll realize there is no evidence. No evidence at all. because the evidence against Mr. Banks doesn't exist.
Starting point is 03:35:01 I'm very confident that you look through this and find Mr. Banks not guilty of all, of all charges. Okay. W, W, W, W. OTFDD and Lindsay, counsel will get 22 minutes each for their opening statement. We'll take a break in a second because I'm going to lie. reading all this. Jesus. Are y'all hanging in there with me? Are y'all hanging in there with me? We're pushing nine hours.
Starting point is 03:35:45 We're pushing nine hours, chat. We're pushing nine hours. Okay, here we go. We got Armand. Armand was cracking, my boy. I'm calling you back on my stream. What up? Are you coming out here? I am.
Starting point is 03:36:10 I didn't know you were going to be out there. Or at least from open statements. Oh, yeah, yeah. So remember, we talked when I was doing, I think it was either Malabra or the Diddy Shepamper, I told you I was going to cover Drake. I mean, I was going to cover Dirk. Oh, yeah, you did, you did. Yeah, this shit is crazy.
Starting point is 03:36:26 I think that they're going to get cooked on the surveillance and though. Okay, could you give me the energy? Like, I'm trying to compare this to the Diddy trial. I can't tell the energy and everything of what's happened in around the courtroom. This is why we have you there that you could give us really the you know, I just got the transcript, so I guess I have everything that was said in court. But I don't
Starting point is 03:36:46 know the demeanor of everyone like you know i heard traplore kind of describe what he saw with dirk's demeanor it said dirk look a little bit nervous what how is the feeling of around the courtroom going in and even like how does the defendants not only dirt but the other two how does everyone look okay so the energy around the courtroom it's a lot of dirt fans it's a lot of it's i want me to be honest with you it's a lot of glazing everybody wants to be team dirt right now like everybody's Dick sucking, everybody, you know what I'm saying? So today, a lot of us couldn't get in. And, like, I was really frustrated at the beginning because, you know, I'm going to be honest with you.
Starting point is 03:37:26 Like, they don't have this situation completely organized like the ditty trial. But at the same time, you could tell even with some of the content creators and people like that, the family, you can tell they're looking online, they're seeing who they like, who's pushing the narrative, who's saying the what. So then they're kind of helping them get into the courtroom before everyone else. So the family could help people get in. Yeah, so they got a nigga out there. Like, he's, he's moving like, it's like club court dirt.
Starting point is 03:37:56 Like, the niggas in there. I got one, two, right here, bro. Go ahead and bring that nigga in. You know what I'm saying? Oh, so they're treating this shit like the club. Like, all right, man. Yes. Oh, really?
Starting point is 03:38:05 Yes, yes. If they feel like they've seen you on YouTube or they've seen your content, you know what I mean? I've seen one guy, you know, he kind of went up to another guy. And this is good stuff, but he, You're like, you know what? Listen, I fuck with you. You keep that shit real.
Starting point is 03:38:19 I like your content. You keep doing that shit. And you like, you know, you could just tell like, you know, and I'm not trying to hate on niggas, but I'm just saying like, niggas are trying to get people in their pocket. They're trying to make sure that the narrative is going the right way. And if you're saying the things that, you know, that make people feel comfortable in such a touchy time, they're going to look out for you. For me, I, like, I don't really talk to the family that much.
Starting point is 03:38:39 I don't really talk to anybody on either side because I need to be able to call it how I feel and how I see it. So I don't want to get. boxed into where I'm trying to ride the elevator down with the family, and then I might have to say he's cooked. You know what I'm saying? So. I see there was some celebrity present. We saw G. Herbo supposedly showed him.
Starting point is 03:38:59 I'm not sure if he went in the court, but I seen a video looked like he was at least outside. He took a picture with people. Are you feeling like there's pressure that maybe you have to slant your reporting to be a little bit favorable? Because that kind of is coming across in how you're described. I mean, it's just a dirt world. Like, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 03:39:18 Like, so everybody, like, my thing is, I'm there for the facts. I'm there to see what's going on. There's, I mean, there's fans, there's a guy he drives from San Diego every day. He's a super fan. And he's there, one of the first people there. He's there at 5 o'clock in the morning,
Starting point is 03:39:33 you know, Team Dirk. Dreezy was there. She came out supporting Dirk. Yeah, so Gherber was there. MGK was there. So he has a lot of support. here. For the other side, I think it's like Savaya Robinson. It's just his mom, his aunt, and, you know, one of his baby mamas. I actually talked to the mom today because I sit behind her
Starting point is 03:39:58 in court and I asked her like, does she feel a type of way, you know, that all this is going on? And she's literally having to walk past these people and all these people are dirt fans and like, you know, her son is dead. And she was just like, you know what, at the end of the day, I'm a civilian first. Anything my son got into, he got into once he, like, got of age. But she was like, I don't have no bad blood, no hate of my heart for him or anybody. She said, if their mom was here right now, if Dirk's mom was here right now, I would give her a hug. I was like, wow. Wow.
Starting point is 03:40:31 By the way, like, so we know that the family or, you know, the mom and the family of Pob is there. As you're mentioned that the court, you know, house is, or at least around the vicinity of the court, kind of filled with a lot of dirt fans. How are they protecting the family of Savaya Robinson to make sure that they're not getting trolled? Because, you know, I've seen an incident where they're running up on Trapploor Ross. I would imagine that if they feel,
Starting point is 03:40:56 they might do it to you if they feel like your report and it's not making dirt look in the best light. They might say something. But what about the family? Like, do they have separate entrances? Like, how is this being protected that people aren't getting bullied? I think that, I think that people know that, like,
Starting point is 03:41:13 first of all, there's three women. and nobody's going to be bothering them. And they know that this was, it wasn't supposed to be Savaya, you know? So I don't think there's any beef there, you know? It was an accident, for real, for real, you know? So I think, like, the interests are the same. It's no beef with that. And Quart Dirt looks good.
Starting point is 03:41:31 Haircut look good. He's chilling. I feel like, this think it might use this. If he get off, this is going to be part of his rollout. How does he look physically? Is he gained a little bit of weight? Remember when Didi came in, they say Diti gained some weight, and he had, like, a, yeah,
Starting point is 03:41:45 like a like this like sweater like almost clippered hucks them things look clean they fresh taper hair look this shit dirt this the best he ever looked to me you know what i mean he looks he looks polished um they're so basically what the defense is doing has he gained weight yeah fat no not fat he just i mean he looks thicker but it's a good thing it's not like a slumpy slouchy he don't look starved out he don't look like he just in there depressed like but i think the defense they're doing a great job by making sure all the men look polished. Like everybody, even towards the end of the trial.
Starting point is 03:42:21 Even Lindsay? Yeah. He looks good. They look good. I'm not going to sit there. Lindsay is not really giving enough energy because I think Lindsay might be the most cooked. But he's a shooter. Yeah. He might be the most cook, but DeAndre can't stop
Starting point is 03:42:37 smiling. He's smiling. Yeah, he's smiling. He's chilling. Hair is shiny and everything. And listen, the defense, they're basically saying They even have to judge today. They're like, hey, can we bring in ties for, you know, for our defendants? Can we bring in ties for them? So we can keep them polished up because it kind of takes too long to kind of get them dressed.
Starting point is 03:42:56 So they're doing a great job by making sure to the jury that these men don't look like criminals. Oh, wow. Yeah, so they're not super tied up. And if they are like, you know, like ankle braced up and like, you know, chained up, you can't see it. So from the waist up, everybody has their hands free. They look like they're in suits You know button ups Everybody's crisp
Starting point is 03:43:18 So I'm not really sure What this energy was And looking like scary and stuff You know They're kind of chilling Okay The the energy Or how does the family
Starting point is 03:43:30 At Dirk look We know Big Dirk You know the father is there Are they Are they looking super nervous Do they seem pretty confident We know in the Ditty trial Didi at times
Starting point is 03:43:41 When he saw Whether it was You know His kids in the back or whatever or like his mom, he would kind of like blow a kiss or whatever. Has Dirk interacted with anyone in the gallery or is he just like locked in?
Starting point is 03:43:54 I personally haven't seen him interact personally with anyone there, but that's not to say that it hasn't happened. But I feel like the family at this point, I feel like it's still so early, people still have high hopes. You know, the defeat hasn't came yet. So people feel like, hey, it's just one foot in front of the other.
Starting point is 03:44:12 So I think everybody's kind of in that incubate state right now where everybody's just like we're just going through the motions we're going to see where you know what I mean I think tomorrow we're going to start to see because that's when the real testimony from the other niggas is going to start coming out so we're going to see like you know is this a believable testimony because everybody knows today that sobaya got killed you know what I'm saying we know that so that's no shocker but I think for the dirt people they're like hey can you prove that this was a murder for hire and I don't think that the defense is banking on the fact that there is no money being transferred so they don't think that the murder for hire will be proved. And Dirk was nowhere around for the stalking. So I don't know how they're going to get him on that. So I think that his family and his team, they're chilling right now. I can't sit there and be like, oh, they're sweating.
Starting point is 03:45:00 They're nervous. They're going through the motions. And I think that they have a solid case. And right now, I don't feel like I got to just see. I don't think Dirk is just completely cooked right now because I need to see they're going to have to prove this murder for hire. The stalking, though, they got them niggas. They got the niggas coming out of the airport, off the airplane. They put a collage together of the niggas starting from downtown L.A.
Starting point is 03:45:23 on the 18th following them niggas to the weed shop, to the bake store, to the gas station to shoot them niggas. Like, I mean, there's no way that you're getting out of it. And then the niggas went to In-N-Out Burger after. Okay. And this is where, you know, and by the way, I want to continue. continually say, I think all of you guys down there are part of independent media, you guys are doing exactly. And again, you know, we have to kind of drive these points home because this is how they try to discredit us. What you're doing is 100%. You're doing journalism to the highest level.
Starting point is 03:46:01 Now, even with that, and this is where I think this is where traditional, in traditional media usually like loses off of some of what we do. Armand could be down there and report objectively about what he's seen observing, but then I also could look at it, which I am going to do now, and say, okay, now you being in that courtroom, I want you, what you think you've got to score today. What's your gut telling you?
Starting point is 03:46:25 What's your, is, whose opening statement that you're like, you know what? I'm kind of rocking a little bit left or right. I want you to give me your opinion. Yeah, right now, that's what I'm saying. Like, the stalking, don't charges, them niggas is cooked for that both of them but i don't know i think people want i can't give you a dirk finale
Starting point is 03:46:48 yet because the only thing that we've seen on dirk is that his account was used to purchase you know the flights but it was jason smith so they can steal in my mind it's like if it cracks like a duck and it beats like a duck dam it's a duck but can you prove it and they're gonna have to prove that dirk did this murder for hire that dirt was a part of the stalking that dirt was in on this and I just don't know if they're going to have enough receipts, especially if there is no money transfer. So did the government kind of keen on this because I've heard this explanation a lot. When it comes to murder for hire and conspiracy of murder for hire, you don't have to get paid.
Starting point is 03:47:33 So for example, if you hired a hitman, right, and the hitman kills someone and you're supposed to meet up with a hitman afterwards to pay. even if, let's say you don't pay the guy, it's still a murder for hire. So payment isn't necessary. What's really necessary is the agreement that you were going to confiscate. Has the government keyed in on that yet?
Starting point is 03:47:55 Because I hear how Dirk's lawyers are trying to, like, defeat that. But if the government might have a slam dunk here by saying, who gives a fuck if these guys got paid? They had a promise of payment. And that's all we need. You know what? They haven't really keen. in on that but agreement
Starting point is 03:48:13 was thrown around so I feel like agreement is going to be used later and I think also in agreement I think they also might try to add on a promise of musical career you know what I'm saying yeah yeah yeah they mentioned that might be coming I think that kind of thing
Starting point is 03:48:29 might be coming too but it's still very early what I saw in how they were describing it in some of the early indictments they were almost saying that Dirk would tell these guys like yo yo listen man if y'all not doing these crimes i'm not fucking with y'all and the idea of dirt not fucking with them could have tremendous financial ramifications whether they relied on him
Starting point is 03:48:53 as their boss musically whether they felt like they needed a favor from him i'm wondering how like there has to be a real strategy to mitigate that to say hey these guys never got offered anything they were just doing this thing because, yes, Dirk didn't like them, but everybody didn't like these guys and everybody were friends with Vaughn. Again, you kind of avoided it, but I'm going to hold you to it. After what you've seen today, let's split you into a pause. But like, if you're on, if you're a Dirk fan, do you feel good about today? Or let's say if you are, I don't know, maybe the family of Saviari Robinson,
Starting point is 03:49:37 and do you feel good about today? Like, on which side you feel like they're probably sleeping a little bit good tonight? I think both sides, because I feel like if I'm Dirk, I'm not, if I'm Dirk's fan, I'm not really stressed. The only thing that we do know today is the one thing I could just tell you where I'm like, I'm okay, I'm sold on is Lindsay and Wilson. They're probably going to get that stalking charge and that interstate, like, you know, using the airplane to come and stock and surveillance. Like, that's clear as day. That is clear. That's the only finite thing that I can say that I feel like, okay.
Starting point is 03:50:12 But I don't know if that's the big one. Hold on. So there's a few things that I felt that, you know, the government gave up a lot of info pre-trial. I thought they saved this for opening day. The fact that they, like, for example, the BMW is tracked to several locations and back to the location that's the Airbnb that Dirk is in. Okay? Dirk supposedly taking a picture with the guy who rented the car. Right?
Starting point is 03:50:43 I think those things and also, you know, those things particularly, was there anything that the government said today that you were like, what the hell? Like, you know, it was meant to be a shocker where maybe people in the gallery were like, either like, you know, gasping for or whatever. Not yet. Maybe earlier in the opening statements, but I think it was just, I think that people were just kind of like gasping at the fact that that detective was able to put all this together because the car had GPS. And in that BMW, you were able to pinpoint every low, like how fast the car was going when it started, when it stopped, what address it was at. The only thing that people I think we all kind of gagged us all was, was,
Starting point is 03:51:33 when the detective said that he found a nigger based off of the jeans he was wearing. He Googled and said, what was it? Reckless or rich rags to riches? Wait, wait, wait, that's the shit that's in Chicago, right? The drip. Yes. Everybody was like, what the fuck? You Googled that and then called the store,
Starting point is 03:51:56 and then they pulled and sent them a warrant, and then called to Chicago Police Department. Like, that was crazy. You know what I mean? So I think that was kind of a shocker. But outside of that, we are still very early on. And, you know, I can't give you an answer to which side is what. I think both sides are putting up a good fight.
Starting point is 03:52:14 Okay. Let me ask you about one particular thing. So there was one thing that I said, hmm, if Dirk's team is able to hammer at this point, they could probably, because here's the thing. So OTF Jam is a murderer. and it could be possibly seeing that this guy was caught for several other murders that didn't have nothing to do with Dirk or had, you know, didn't have nothing to do a little pop, but specifically that you could be like, oh, this guy's just trying to find a way to save himself. But the thing with Vani is that Vani doesn't have a criminal record. And, you know, Vani's supposedly just not a street dude. Here's the thing, though, and I saw in the defense, at least for Dirk opening, Marissa.
Starting point is 03:53:01 What she said was important, but they got to hammer this home. They said when, and by the way, there has to be proof of this somewhere somehow. They said when they kicked down the door at the Wardoff Estoria in Chicago, and he was with a chick. And then they said to him, hey, yo, we got you. We got you. You're the kingpin. You're the guy who set this all up.
Starting point is 03:53:26 And they basically accuse him. And I guess they do an impromptu interview before they even bring him, like to the station, but they say, you're the leader unless you could give us someone else. I think that will be, if they dig into that to basically say, Vani was pressured to try to trump it up. Because again, remember, they wanted a big fish. Yeah. But you've got to remember, it's no way that defense says,
Starting point is 03:53:55 the defense doesn't say that unless they have body cam or something that proves that the fans did say. that and if the fed said it to the guy who cooperated by saying you're the leader we know blah blah unless you give us someone bigger i'm gonna ride with that type of um mantra to say no oh you guys knew what it was you guys called him the leader but he dangled a bigger fish which happens to be dirk the rich famous guy now y'all want dirk why did y'all even try to pressure him y'all already said he was the leader be a good point i'm we'll have to wait and see I mean, I see where you're going. And I think that's what they're going to do, though.
Starting point is 03:54:37 I think that's definitely what they're going to do because even today, she was basically saying that, you know, Bonnie's going to get up there and try to perform, basically lie. Yep. You know, she said that. So that is one of the things that may happen. So we just got away. So who do you think?
Starting point is 03:54:52 How do you think it's going to go? Okay, here's another thing, though. What I did kind of think was a little bit like BS a little bit, when she was like, well, you know, Dirk is like, almost like he's just a spiritual, artistic. man and when he was going to leave to flee the country he needed to break. It just was
Starting point is 03:55:09 a timeout. I didn't like that. I didn't like that one. I didn't like that. Girl. How did that sound in court? Because so I read the transcripts and by the way, like, you know, obviously if you only share the transcripts, like
Starting point is 03:55:23 I can share the transcripts, you can't share the transcript. You don't have it. But when I was reading that even in transcripts, I'm like I granted, I'm reading what's written, but it's no way that could sound good no matter who saying it.
Starting point is 03:55:38 Oh, yeah. It sounded like I said and she was talking like, you know, Dirk, he's an artist. And he gets frustrated, but you know, his name wasn't just Little Dirk. They also called him, the voice. And see, when, yeah, he was at the airport, and when
Starting point is 03:55:53 he was getting ready to leave, he wasn't going to flee. Do you think that he was going to do that? No. He just needed a break. It was so much going on. He needed a moment. He needed a breather. I'm just like, okay.
Starting point is 03:56:05 Okay, how did that come across to you? Because now, granted, and I guess, uh, that thing was getting the fuck out of here.
Starting point is 03:56:12 What are you talking about? Okay. No, no, no. So, this is where, and by the way,
Starting point is 03:56:16 you know, obviously, uh, you know, as we get into this territory, we got to be careful, you know, you're in court.
Starting point is 03:56:23 We're learning also from the ditty trial. We don't know what could be said and whatnot. So I wanted to kind of ask you. And if you can't die volge or whatever, you know, obviously, you know, you're trying to be at the court
Starting point is 03:56:33 scenes every day. What was the final juror like count? Male, the female, black to white. It is like, what are we looking at here? Are we looking at like a young crowd? Are we looking like an old crowd? They might be like hearing some of this stuff and be like, what the fuck? What? Like, this sounds dumb. Like, no. Because you got to imagine what you just said, if people don't know Dirk, like, I think to black people when we hear he needed some fucking space, we're like, yo, stop the cap, bro. Don't stop the bullshit. But maybe to like some, maybe to a older, maybe non-hip hop, eclectic crowd, they might be like, oh, I understand it.
Starting point is 03:57:11 Art, artist, they need whatever. How are you looking at? Again, if you can't speak about the jury, that's absolutely fine. But I'm wondering, you know, how do you feel that kind of play? Well, I'll just say this. I think it might be a black woman in a half there. This is like the most. What would you mean?
Starting point is 03:57:32 A half? You know, like, it's like, it's like, no, I find out. You know what I'm saying? Like, I think might be like a full black and it's like a mixed girl. You got a little mulata in there. Yeah, but I don't like,
Starting point is 03:57:43 but I can't really get a fool, but I'll just say in them walking in, this is like the most random group, like, these are random ass people. Like, they're like, like, it's like, they don't know little, they don't know little, they don't know little dirt. Like, or you know what I mean?
Starting point is 03:57:57 Like, these are random ass people. Oh, so they would know his music. Oh, okay. Are we talking about an old. an older or young because again definitely not a younger definitely not younger no it's not younger at all
Starting point is 03:58:10 it's middle to older and it's and it's and it's like you know yeah it's it's every day okay so what's your opinion or that do you think that all right it's an older or maybe a demographic that isn't in tune with some of the stuff he's into
Starting point is 03:58:27 that you could get off certain stuff with them kind of knowing the lay of the or you're like, I'm going to be honest with you, they kind of look already disgusted by even some of the stuff he's being, you know, dragged into. Like, again, this is going to- Some of them may not care or some of them might be, like, just, it's a lot of different things because being at,
Starting point is 03:58:49 I can't really go too far into it, but like being at the, like, when they were picking the jury, just kind of listening to some of the things that was going on, you have some jury that will probably be easily persuadable. Some of them are just going to be tired, like, I don't give a fuck, you know? Or some of them, they might be sticklers, but then there's other ones that I may think they're going to be hard and they might not see it the way that I thought that they would.
Starting point is 03:59:09 They might think this is all bullshit, prove it, you know? Okay. And by the way, you know, I want everybody to go, we have his stream on the screen. Please, everybody go check out Armand Wiggins. He's live right now with 1,800 people. Make sure go send a sub, show them some love. Hey, okay, I got to ask you. Oh, I was going to ask.
Starting point is 03:59:32 Did I forget? No, I didn't forget. Wow, there's so many things. I just had something in my mind. What was it? Tomorrow's the day, though. Tomorrow is going to be the day where shit really pops off, though. Yeah, no.
Starting point is 03:59:45 Tomorrow's going to be the day. But, again, like, even just figuring out how today went, how everything that is going to, like, contribute to it. Okay, what's the demeanor of the lawyers? Again, oh, this is what I wanted to ask. Perfect. Brian Andrews, I always look sleep. I mean, but he's good, though.
Starting point is 04:00:03 He's a beast. Who? Who? Who? Is that the name? I mean, Brian Stills. Brian Steele. Okay, so that's what I was going to say.
Starting point is 04:00:10 So, the opening statement was done by Marissa Goldberg. She's not the billion-dollar lawyer. She does work for Drew Finland, but she's not Drew Finland. And we hear about Brian Steele, who got young thug-off. What was your demeanor? And I don't know if you looked at the judges or not judges, I mean, the lawyers that much. Did it feel like, like they went with this, lady who did the opening statement not saying she did a bad job but but she did a good job though
Starting point is 04:00:36 she did a good job because it was the compassionate read like you know for him like i don't feel like they needed to come out with because the thing is this the prosecution is all men so they yeah so yes and it's two black guys over on that side it looks like there's two black guys on the prosecution side on the a us yeah and it looks like one of the lead prosecutors um it looks like one of the lead prosecutors, he's black. The one that spearheading is, he's black. He's like, he looked like an Obama nigga. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 04:01:08 Mm-hmm. He black. Wow. He black. So, okay, so, so let me get this. But you know, but Finland and Brian, they're chilling. They're just waiting. They're chilling, though.
Starting point is 04:01:20 They're chilling. They're not. Do they look nervous? Are they, like, fumbling around with paper? Brian still ass being there, dozing off. Brian still? No way. He's a way to Lee gets tapped into the game.
Starting point is 04:01:35 Like, you know, they're going to check him in the game soon. Now, which one is the hoot to me is Lindsay's attorney, the heavyset black guy. Somebody came to me and said they felt like he read his whole opening statement out for chat, GPT. But I don't know. I didn't really get that part. And I would imagine that Dirk's lawyers would write the opening statement for the other guys. He would have to, like, right? Because, like, I think we know.
Starting point is 04:02:00 what this is, right? Like, again, Dirk got to be controlling the situation with Dedy and Lindsay. And I think, you know, and I think, you know, and I think my girl Holly, she's the publicist over there for them. So she's doing a good job kind of just being around with the media and just kind of keeping everything arise. So shout out to Holly. I love Holly, by the way. So you should tap in with her too if you haven't tapped into a Holly. Of course. Come on. You know, I've tapped it. Okay, yeah. By the way, great hire, you know, like she single-handedly changed up the you know, mostly negative and really just bad reporting
Starting point is 04:02:34 about Diddy and she made it a bit fair. So I think she's going to play a good role with here too. She's a star, clearly. Yeah, Holly, yeah, she does a good job. She's like a silent assassin and she knows how to work that courtroom, I'll say. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 04:02:50 She knows how to work the media over there too. Yeah. This is going to be an interesting. Okay. So, so, There was a problem with getting all the people who wanted to watch the trial, like, seated and stuff like that. There wasn't an overflow room today? Am I tripping?
Starting point is 04:03:09 No. Well, people were going off. And so they started opening statements without letting, like, I don't know. They have, like, this ticketed thing. But then they have the family. Then they have, it just, it was, they weren't prepared, you know. And I, a lot of people don't, they personally feel like the judge doesn't want a big crowd because I don't know why we don't have it in the bigger courtroom. where they had the original proceeding
Starting point is 04:03:31 because the room is not big enough. It's just not. And I don't know why they won't just take it down to the level one where everyone can fit in there. And so that was a big issue today. And then, you know, people would have to leave out for break or leave out for lunch and then run back and get in line. And then again, like I was telling you,
Starting point is 04:03:50 you know, some of the family member or like, not family or like, you know, management team, whoever they are with them, they're making sure their people get in, not just friends, not just family, but people that they feel like it's going to go back and report what they need the narrative to be. Yeah.
Starting point is 04:04:06 So niggas was skipping me. But, you know, I told them I didn't want to beep with them. I was like, you're cool. Because I was like, I don't want to throw his name out there. So then he's like, I don't want to go to it like that. You're able to kind of move around and doing your thing. Hey, I do want to send you. So there's a couple of pictures floating around.
Starting point is 04:04:27 I'm pretty sure they're completely. completely AI, right? Like, there's definitely no filming or taking pictures in the federal court. No. But I do want you to, like, comment on, like, how you saw Dirk's appearance and how it mostly looks like, because there's one that kind of shows him with this low cut. But, you know, obviously, it was him like... He doesn't have a low cut.
Starting point is 04:04:45 I mean, he has a low cut, but it's like a taper with, like, a little fro. Like, like, it's not like a fro. But, you know what I'm saying? It's not like a wave length. Like, you can kind of pick it up. Like, he looks. Like, I'm like, no homo. He looks cute.
Starting point is 04:04:55 I'm not a lie. Wait, wait. Did he, okay, he has a suit on, he has like kind of... He got a suit. Yeah, he got a suit on with a white button with a white shirt, tie. The niggins look fly. I'm not going to lie. DeAndre looked fly too.
Starting point is 04:05:11 Did you take note of like... I know you said you didn't see India show up, but did you take note of like... No, no, I did see India. She's cool. She's chilling. Now, one thing that she does do, I think she even did it today. She's trying to avoid the cameras. So what she does...
Starting point is 04:05:27 like she'll sit in her car or her black truck and she'll wait until the proceeding start where everybody goes inside then she'll like try to like she'll come in like you know what I mean because she doesn't want to be but she's very quiet like she doesn't come with a lot of noise and she usually comes in like after things have kind of started you know what I mean or because she avoids the press and she's in and out wow but she's beautiful though and she look and she's you know she she's handling it the best way she can his dad there's dad they they all all seem to look positive and stuff. To me, I think the ones that are, if anybody looks like they're most like, okay, this shit
Starting point is 04:06:03 got to be right, it's like the management team was like, this motherfucker got to be right. You know what I mean? But the dad, you can tell he's, he's chilling, he's showing up every day. India, you know, I mean, of course it's not a good time for any of them, but they're not wearing stress. Dirk is not even wearing stress. That's good. By the way, I got a quick update real quick.
Starting point is 04:06:24 They said it's five women and seven men who are the, you know, we're not. I'm not talking about alternates here. The main jurors, five men, seven women, which I guess if you're also communicating to some women, maybe it wasn't that bad of a choice to go with a, you know, Marissa to do the opening statements. Because, again, you have to communicate. This is a very violent trial. Yes. And you have to communicate women who are probably adverse to violence in general that, hey, listen, of course, is a bad thing.
Starting point is 04:06:54 Which I thought it was interesting to what Dirk's lawyers and his team did. They basically said, we're not over here contesting that there was a murder. We actually feel bad that it happened. Yes. We're just trying to say Durka had nothing to do with it. That's kind of like a nice little strategy. Like, you know, they're not fighting the thing they're saying that was, it's tragic that it happened. All we're here to say is that our client had nothing to do with it.
Starting point is 04:07:16 Yeah, but I think that's the only yours. There's like he, like, in any kind of way. And it's almost kind of like he had nothing to do with it. It was all Kavon Grant and him being like messy as fuck. And he did all this, and he used Dirk's money and resources and created all this havoc that ultimately ended in a murder. Okay, let me ask you. But somewhere not knowing what the fuck was going on. Did you see Kavon Grant or OTFGM today?
Starting point is 04:07:42 No, I didn't. Oh, man. Hey, listen. I wouldn't see them at all. When you see them tomorrow, I need you to detail or at least write your notebook. I want to see how they come in the court. Was there a demeanor? I want to see Dirt's demeanor.
Starting point is 04:07:56 Is he looking at them face the fact? face is his head down is their head down who's pointing at who who's looking at who are they just looking at the lawyer walking back and forth are they yeah you know I'm on that that's why I'm got to get to that courtroom yeah but all right I'm going to hit you tomorrow because I got to go to bed
Starting point is 04:08:13 I got to get there early as fuck because you know I can't have this bullshit tomorrow hey Armand thank you for doing what you do best and by the way for everybody who watches we've always appreciate Armour Ever we never done something in person? We got to do something.
Starting point is 04:08:30 No, remember I came to your birthday, then we were supposed to interview, but then, you know, one of our mutual homies, I don't know if you are so cool, but I posted a picture of me, you and I got totally trashed during the ditty trial, so I was like, fuck, I can't do it. They're like, you better not fucking do an interview with him.
Starting point is 04:08:44 He hates women. I was like, okay. Yo, chat. So the next time I come out there, we have to do something. No, of course. Hey, chat. Well, first of all, you know, it might be even quicker when I come out there.
Starting point is 04:08:56 Oh, yeah, are you going to come? So how does that work? I thought all the niggas in Chicago hated you So that you're cool in Chicago now They fuck with you No, they're gonna love you. Listen, duty low and DJ bands call me as a Anyway, you know, listen, when I come out there,

We're gonna start showing love to everybody who's boots on ground. Listen, you know, as much as until I could get there. And by the way, I'll hit you offline
Starting point is 04:09:25 and tell you exactly when I'm planning to come. I don't want to just like, you know, just front of my way. But for the people who are there, we got to show them love. Like, they're giving us valuable updates. Do you do the updates like midday in court? Like, you know, like... No, no. I keep minds because I don't like...
Starting point is 04:09:43 Because I don't want to risk getting trolled in the middle. Like, you know what I'm saying? Sometimes you set yourself up for somebody trying to get a clip off of you. So I'd rather just do it at home. Okay, all right. I look that at the ditty shit, yeah. It's all good because we'll watch. watch your stream but chat go check out his channel armand wiggins he's going to you know again it's
Starting point is 04:09:59 all about perspectives and again here's the thing we can't trust anyone that's not there so you got to go off the people who at least at least have um eyewitness testimony of hey this is what i saw even if you disagree with them at least over there so yo i'm on thank you man i know you got to go thank you um tomorrow i'll try to tap it with you we'll be back okay all right thank you my man See you.

Starting point is 04:10:41 It's over. It's over now. It's over. Shout to our mom, man. Like, you know, cool. You know, I realize about a lot of, like, the gay dudes that's in this, industry, especially media
Starting point is 04:10:57 wise, they're all fucking cool. Like, I don't really know no weird ass gay niggas, bro. I'm gonna be honest. Like, Jason, um, I was about to say Jason Love. No, no.
Starting point is 04:11:09 Um, am I forgot my guy's name? From, from, Hollywood on Locke. What's my guy from Hollywood Unlock? Why am I forgetting his name? Blame it on me being drunk.
Starting point is 04:11:28 Jason Lee. Yeah. He's cool of shit. It's cool of shit, bro. Or my mom's cool of shit, too. I think I only got beef with, like, the gay rappers. Like, I mean, like, like, saucy shit. Is that a rapper, I don't.
Starting point is 04:11:44 Anyway. All right, good, good. All right. I have the chat. You know what I think I'm going to do? I'm going to post the, I think I'll post the transcript. It's 260 pages. So everything that was said in court today,
Starting point is 04:12:05 I read the opening statement from the AUSA. I also read the opening statement from Dirk's lawyers, but there's two other lawyers. There's a lawyer for Lindsay and lawyer for Dedi. Okay? I'm not going to read those, okay, respectfully. I'm not going to read those, okay? I don't want to keep reading and fucking just blow my voice box out for tomorrow, okay?
Starting point is 04:12:27 Let me see if anybody else has said anything, we'll keep watching and shit. Let me see. Sadie Nash. Let's see what's the vibes. Okay, he did upload something. Okay, okay. Here we go. The marshals are the ones
Starting point is 04:12:45 who run the courtrooms and all the stuff who bring in the way. Anybody was supposed to snitch. It was supposed to be Deansky. Whether y'all know him is D.D. or Dyski, it is what it is. Okay, Dedy, okay.
Starting point is 04:12:57 If anybody... So he's, his, his thing is that if anybody was supposed to be telling, it should have been Dedy. They had the ability to snitch and get like two to three years, five halfbacks, it would have been him. Because what happened is they say, um, Didi was riding passenger and Didi always popped up to do songs and shit.
Starting point is 04:13:19 D D D D D was basically a hungry artist. And so he was going to studios. He was just in the car. He's in a BMW. He didn't know before. He wasn't needed and did nothing at all. He went everywhere last minute. So the recruitment shit isn't real because he didn't have a gun.
Starting point is 04:13:38 He didn't have a mask. He didn't have shit. His lawyer makes a hell of a case. He says, Vani got the location from Instagram. Vani was already living in L.A. And would explain that because Vani had been in L.A. for months. So hell not. And then Jim had to drop on the downtown L.A.
Starting point is 04:14:02 He don't got no mask on here. He had no gun. No text against Kwine. Rondo, that's, um, I'm saying, I'm saying Jim had to drop on downtown LA and Advani didn't have a mask, no gun, no text or anything against Quando
Starting point is 04:14:16 which means he wasn't in the quote-unquote conspiracy. Then David Lindsay lawyer came up and, bro, I'm gonna be honest. Okay, he said he destroyed his own self. What? He says there is no agreement. Now, keep it of mind, David Lindsay's lawyer
Starting point is 04:14:32 has the hardest time. because fuck the agreement, right? Like obviously there's a conspiracy charges, but the conspiracy charges usually for the people who don't pull the trigger. Dedy did not pull the trigger. Dirk did not pull the trigger. So conspiracy really matters for them.
Starting point is 04:14:49 The thing with Lindsay is that he got to prove he was not there because if he did the murder and he's standing, fuck the conspiracy, you're going to jail for life regardless. So his lawyer has the toughest time to say this guy was not there. His whole entire thing is to destroy the murder for a higher point, but then he says something that doesn't make any damn sense. So he says there's no agreement, there's no plan, and there's no payment. And he's not fighting the murder. He's not, I said, I'm not hiding at all.
Starting point is 04:15:18 So it's not planned. That's how I took it. Other people may say that differently, but how I. Okay. Now, here's the thing. If he doesn't fight the murder, it kind of feels like he's almost, in a sense, almost. down to take the rap for Dirk. Because if I'm him, I would say,
Starting point is 04:15:41 I'm not even here to contest if there was a plot for murder. I'm just here to tell y'all that I wasn't a shooter. Here's what's happening. The other two shooters, Jam, and Keith Jones is telling on Dirk and subsequently tell no Lindsay. So if I'm him, fuck the conspiracy for now, I don't care about it. conspiracy. I just want to let you know I didn't shoot nobody. If he's not saying that,
Starting point is 04:16:08 it almost seems like he'll, if he's defending, oh, it's no conspiracy, but I'm not going to deny me murdering the guy. Seems like he's almost down to jump on the sword and say, yeah, I killed the nigga, but nobody told me to kill him. Yeah, that's helping Dirk. It doesn't help you. He got to start by helping himself by saying, I never shot nobody. Otherwise, he's done. I think it was he wasn't really fighting the murder part. He said he was in California. He said he wasn't in agreement. He said he talks to the same people he always talked to.
Starting point is 04:16:40 He said no money was ever given in August 19th before or after. And there's no payment of videos. And there's no rap videos that he's in. He doesn't even rap. So there's that part. And then I didn't write it. But he basically said, you don't see my client get out that car with a gun, but you clearly see this tall-ass dude get out there with a damn gun.
Starting point is 04:17:04 He's 100% cooked, in my opinion. He's the one where I'm looking at this shit like, bruh, I don't know what your lawyer talked to the feds about, but it's clear your lawyer is trying to destroy certain aspects of the fed's argument. And for the record, shout out the lawyer for workers. chest to talk and shit when I see that. I said, what's up top? The motherfucker just looked at me. Cause I was like, kill my size. A little bit tall. You're like six foot forward, bro. Six foot five. That's a, that's a tall, lanky-ass dude, man. So I got a chance to chop it up with them.
Starting point is 04:17:43 I even gave him my damn notebook. I hear, bro, you know what I'm saying? Gave him one of my pins. So, you know, I'm just as solid as they come. So, um, opening day one, LAPD, custodian, confirmed 911 call. It was eight calls that were made. First call didn't even want to ID themselves. They were crying and scared as shit. She flat out said, I don't want to leave any information. That's flat out from her freaking words. Then there's a detective of L.A. for 30 years, robbery homicide, 19 years.
Starting point is 04:18:16 He was the crime scene cop. He's the one who places the investigators and testify to the shooting video. Three people hopped out of the car. And the damn video lasts for five seconds, bruh. you see them hop out the car they walk it up they looking somebody let out the switch another person only let on two shots so um i i revealed this later on because i can't remember his name i say somebody ran off quando rondo was in the car so what happened was and i'll get more into detail a little bit later the escalate was getting gas they just got done getting gas
Starting point is 04:19:01 and Quando Rondo is on the rear passenger side there's another dude in there he's in the middle and got Oh, Cuando was in the car I always thought like Quando went in the store or something and they just shot up whoever was in the car
Starting point is 04:19:19 but I remember there was a girl in there too so it looked like the girl did not the girl didn't get hit right? Hmm dang little pop was in the the passenger side of the driver's side. He ends up getting hit four times.
Starting point is 04:19:36 He gets hit right here. He gets hit in the arm. It goes in and out. Then he gets hit right here. That bullet stays in. But he gets hit right here, right up under. And it pierces his heart in his lung. And that's what ultimately killed him, man.
Starting point is 04:19:56 Boy, that shit was, seeing death ain't never natural. I'm just going to be honest with you. I'm used to it, though. but there were 16 shots, 9 millimeters, and 2 shots from the, no, there's 16 total shots, 14 for the 9 millimeter,
Starting point is 04:20:12 and 2 from a 10 millimeter. We find out later why the SUV was parked inside of the pump because I'm like, bro, you, you big lacking. For you to get shot at in Blackshire, Georgia, and y'all parking like that, I thought that was some goofy-ass shit. you find out that Pop is in like the middle of the damn shit. Pop is in the middle of the car basically dying.
Starting point is 04:20:40 You can hear him breathing out loud and you can hear his last breath spray. It was it was pretty rough, man. The tire guy popped, you feel me? The driver's side rear wheel that was popped. The right rear window was shot out. Shot out, pardon me. David's lawyer made sure. order no no guns, no fingerprints for his client planning, no involvement plan. That's what he was
Starting point is 04:21:04 doing. And then the second cop is from Montclair PD. What I noticed too was that the first two cops, they were talking directly to the jury. So when they were speaking, you knew that they did this before. I picked that up on from the donuts, the A&E freaking cop from YSL. When he's talked, when they talk directly to the jury, what we find out is that's more favorable. So I'm noting and I'm noticing who's talking to the jurors and who's not. Little Pops' shoes was left at the crime scene,
Starting point is 04:21:40 which was crazy as shit. The cop says he was shot in the back. It turns out he actually wasn't. And then Cuando Rondo was in the car. Everybody was in the freaking car. And then the Fed lawyer made sure that when he was describing the same, He made sure to say in Cuando Ron and the guy Cuando Rondo was screaming, no.
Starting point is 04:22:07 He made sure to say that because I think they're going to set up for another play with this shit when they produce it again. So you had a doctor come in and say that Lil Pab was shot in the left arm, one shot in the chest, two inches basically from his nipple. The right by his heart, left chest. So the left side of it, his lung, rib, and heart. It's called a periodical sick, SECT. And it stayed in there. The bullet stayed in the pericardial set. Machine Gun Kelly popped up, man.
Starting point is 04:22:46 He went to the overflow. It was crazy. And then he ended up popping up and went to the actual jurors. Machine Gun Kelly wore some damn platforms making it seem like he's 6'4. But shout out of the Machine Gun Kelly, man. He rocked with the Chon. channel. So shout out to him. So little power died from internal bleeding from the bullet hitting the heart and the lung. The second shot was left bicep. It went in and out. And then he was shot
Starting point is 04:23:08 twice in the arm, basically in the upper arm. And then another one had hit his forearm. And then they say that basically he tried to protect himself. That's why his arm had had that bulletin in there. Then another LA detective CW. I can't remember his name. He's robbery homicide. He didn't look at the jury during testifying and he's going to be the one that pops back up tomorrow. Okay, so it looks like they did start with the detectives and medical examiner. That's the first couple witnesses. So he goes on to talk about three people were in the car, which actually, no, it was four. They had a higher driver, so that's five people in there.
Starting point is 04:23:50 And it was crazy as Cuando Rondo was on his way home. They were on their way to the airport, bro. So you have somebody named Tyreek Johnson and then Carlos Lester. So let me talk to you about Carlos Lester. Carlos Lester was in the front passenger side. That dude ran. When those shots start spinning, bro, he got out the car and ran, bro. I thought that was interesting to see because I'm like, hell not.
Starting point is 04:24:23 So, um, yeah, they were on their way. to Augusta, Georgia, and then, yeah, they got their gas, Lil'Pob, yeah. Had they never got gas, little pop would still be alive. That's what I went to right. And then it says he's proven, what he's doing, I noticed this is he was proven the stalking portion that they all wanted to put up because Cuando Rondo went to a weed store, and then he stopped to get baked. And these cats didn't even realize these two white cars, that's for.
Starting point is 04:24:57 fathering them and it's kind of crazy. I'm not going to lie to you. That's a little bit surreal about this whole situation. How did they not realize that there was a car? I mean, I guess there was two cars like for the majority of the time, but chat let me know if you
Starting point is 04:25:13 see a car make two turns with you. You don't be like, who the fuck? I don't know a lot. Like, I see a car if I make one turn and I see a car, I'm like okay, let me keep driving. Let me keep driving. and I'm going to make an irrational turn next.
Starting point is 04:25:30 I might even do a U-turn in the middle of road. I got to see what type of time you're on. It appears that they were following this car for dumb long, and they don't realize, that's what I'm saying, they had to be occupied in that car. Everybody's talking, everybody's grinning, everybody thinks they're in L.A. shit's sweet. Cuando is supposed to be a Crip.
Starting point is 04:25:49 You know, the 60s supposed to be rocking with them. They're not really peeping game like this. because one of the cars had fake tags on them and then the BMW went to to VM Exotics and VM Exotics man y'all some cold cold cold cold bastards bray they ended up giving the info for the GPS shit that basically Vani was riding that car where bro so they had a they had the fake tags on the what was it called I haven't run down somewhere else. It's another white car. Anyways, Dirk was a customer of
Starting point is 04:26:30 V.M. Exotics, and they had a picture of him. Like a literal picture of Little Dirt and the owner of VM Exotics where they took a picture. But they also put a little dirt on their goddamn website. So that's one of the... The place you get the car to start the nigger for the murder shouldn't take a picture with you and put you on their website. That goes without saying, y'all.
Starting point is 04:26:56 The things that the damn detective, he noted. So they have no evidence of who got the rental at all. But the BMW was returned by Vani the very next day after the murder. So the officer showed a picture to the jury with Vani on it in Icebox. And the cop says he got money from Little Dirt. That was objected to for speculation because you don't know where he got the damn. money he just said out his mouth the cop just said oh yeah this is Vonnie getting jewelry and he was giving the money was giving him he was given the money by Lord Durp and Brian still objected and yeah because
Starting point is 04:27:35 brad that's speculation you don't know who the hell gave him that money and then they made sure to put it out there that Von he was an assistant to Lord dirt he also this is an LA cop who testified about the killing of King Vaughn he never even said who killed King Von but he was acting like he knew a whole bunch of shit. And then he got the GPS from Vani. The VM owner gave GPS data to the cops, didn't give other money info. And then a warrant was given to get the video of Vani putting up the dog on. Vani putting up the damn car, sending it back to him and all that shit.
Starting point is 04:28:16 But the reason why he gave the GPS to the cop was because they were holding on to that car for. a minute and then the owner of VML was like, man, look, I, my shit got GPS on him, bro. Oh, so look like they seized the car and then they kind of forced the owner to like cooperate. It's not like the owner was going to defend Dirk anyway. The owner was going to give it up no matter what. I'll give you all the GPS to give my car back. So the GPS shows that Vani went to Dirk's house before and he went to Dirk house after the murder and all this shit. It's crazy. He knew to give fake tags for the other car, but not his. Which, To me, screams you pretty goddamn stupid.
Starting point is 04:28:59 No, no, no, I disagree with Setti Nash. I don't think Vonny thought he was ever involved with the hit. I think he thought he was to get shit for, like, yes, it was involved in the stalking, but I think Vonny was, you know, I would probably, you know, I don't do crime, but, you know, I'd probably think in the same way, oh, since no one in my car is going to hop out and shoot these niggas, oh, we don't need to have fake tags on. So they only put fake tags and the stolen car with the one with the shooters.
Starting point is 04:29:30 The BMW, no matter what, was never going to be the shooter. So that's why I think he was like, no, we could ride around with a legit car. We just happened to be all the same places as him, you know? You should have never, you didn't even do anything. You didn't shoot, you didn't do shit.
Starting point is 04:29:49 If you let your homeboys, and I think what they were doing, was trying to shield for the fake tags. That's my belief is, hey, bro, the other white car, bro, we're going to go ahead and shield just so the police can't pull us, I mean, pull them over. They got to pull us over. That's what I believe, what it is.
Starting point is 04:30:10 Keith Jones, DeAndre, Casey Hester, Jam, fans got everybody by their shoes, pants rags to riches. The pants was easy to find online. The cops said all he did was. was Google and found out that Rags and Rich was made in Chicago. He sent the picture of Chicago PD. In Chicago, PD, gave him everything. Okay.
Starting point is 04:30:32 Ten hours in my... Now, chat, remember, we read opening statements. What he's talking about is the cops. And the cops' testimony, the two detectives, and then there's a medical examiner, they're explaining a little bit more. I got to say my voice, I can't read. I can't read all that stuff, okay?
Starting point is 04:30:49 Obviously, if we do get transcripts every day, I'm gonna pick and choose what to read, but I can't read for like three hours. You're gonna have my voice done. And we gotta prepare for the long haul here. Miami and came right back. So Justin Gibson, Devante Richmond, and Kvonan Grant, they all bought fights that day to that shit. It was a credit card of $151,000. And then it shows Little Dirk's tickets were about the day of.
Starting point is 04:31:17 Proves that Little Dirk and Kvon Grant Vani are tight. August 14th through August 20th Vani came to get the rental 632 to 7-1-2020 They were just outside looking dummy shit And had them cats popped out Man, they would smoke Quando Rondo
Starting point is 04:31:40 Rondo I'm just going to be fair square, obvious and honest So At 920 in the morning Quando's rental truck comes in and then Vani pops up in front of the damn rental truck. The day that he gets, the day that little pop gets killed, Vani had popped up. Oh, we got six nine calling.

Starting point is 04:34:23 once this nigga get guilty. No, no, no, no. I'm gonna be honest with you. Like, I think India is probably the only girl in hip-hop, I think we'll hold it down, right? Every other girl's going, bro. I haven't gone. Naga, I'd rather hand my gun in India before I put it in your hand, nigga.
Starting point is 04:34:37 That's real- But why you rapping? Why are you rapping? That's what dirt. That's what we wrecked. I think I'd say, I'd rather put my gun. He's like, yo, he said, the outspulling. He said, but the Glock 10 was by the bed.
Starting point is 04:34:50 I'd rather give my gun. I know what he said, but the police report says that's something else. And the police report They had to finesse that everybody Everybody know what happened Like, yo, India was Busting shots at the ops The police report
Starting point is 04:35:01 had to finesse A police report The police had to finesse Their police support They don't go fucking They had to spend the cops Like the cops They couldn't put the cops

Yo, when this thing gets found guilty, you're going to get a, You came to my party? Listen, all I'm trying to say is India

And I think niggas got to respect a chick like India because, nigga, she shot it out with that nigger. He in jail, she's sticking it out with him. I feel like you're drunk right now. You don't even know what you're saying.
Starting point is 04:36:19 No, I'm telling you. You're a real one, bro. Like, you know it too. That's the crazy part about it. No, no. Every nigga need an India, bro. We got to keep it up there. Damn, darn, I told you the Padres,

Starting point is 04:36:42 This nigga over here, rainbedding right now, man. Like, yo, India, I rock with you. Let me tell you this. I never seen, like, I've never seen you even crack. I never seen you misstep. I never see you make this about you. Indy, I'm gonna keep it up being with you.
Starting point is 04:36:58 Like, every, every nigga, like real nigga, street nigga or not, we all want a girl like you. You're a good girl. I've never seen you do nothing foul, nothing fool gazing. I ain't never see you fuck another rap, right? I never seen you look Thursday for another nigga. I've only seen you play your role,
Starting point is 04:37:16 and I only got to support and salute a girl like that. I ain't never see you do no foul shit. I gotta keep it a bean. Gotta keep it a bean. These are the holes? Horrible. Duty low wasn't in court. He was outside.
Starting point is 04:37:31 Like he's given, like that's like sis, bro. Like, six-nine's trying to gas it. I don't look at that weird, bro. I do not look at that weird, bro. Literally on Cuando Rondo and put the car in front of him. I'm talking, bro. It looked like this. This is Cuando Rondo's truck.
Starting point is 04:37:49 Park waiting. Vani drives right here. Boom. Yeah, shout out my New York Giants. And boom, parks right here. I'm like, oh, Vani a pussy. Vanya, you could have got active right there. You could have ran up and bang, bang, bang, and got up out of there.
Starting point is 04:38:08 But he did it. So he parks in front of Cuando Rondo, Escalade Rennels. He watched him get inside the truck. And then basically, that's what that was. The Quano Rano went to get weed, then got closed. Quanoano has the gas station, why in BMWs and infinity. That's what it was.
Starting point is 04:38:28 These dudes, and an escalate, because he has a professional driver, the escalate makes the drive buses a left and basically clears the light. These fools run the red light. You know, how comes nobody ever got shot
Starting point is 04:38:42 other than the one person? That's a California thing to do. But two cars running a red light like that, man, that's some goofy shit. They never knew this. They never noticed this. And y'all be like, yo, Sedi Nash, whenever we see you outside. Your eyes be up.
Starting point is 04:38:57 I'm like, bro, I noticed all of this shit. I don't be paranoid for no reason. This kind of exonerated me. And everybody hopped out that truck. When they pull it to the gas station, everybody in Cuando Rondo's camp hops out the truck. They go inside the gas station and start getting chips and sodas and candy and all this shit. And what ends up happening is the. the damn infinity pulls up on the truck.
Starting point is 04:39:26 So before it backs into the gas station, it pulls up at the front of the gas station and let them out. The damn white infinity is there and is looking. And I'm like, why ain't they just shoot these dudes right here? But they were stope and they was looking. Cuando Rondo was in their back. So they never see Quando Ronda because he's in the back of the store trying to decide. We're so like, Cuando, bro. God was with you that day.
Starting point is 04:39:52 One million per cent. God was with Cuando Rondo that goddamn day, bro. Because holy shit, his ass could have died where he decided to sit. There were two bodies in front of him that protected him from them damn bullets, from the 16 bullets. So I'll say the infinity rose up to the escalate while Cuando Rano's inside the store. The infinity leaves. It circles the block. They already made their decision.
Starting point is 04:40:20 They're just going to get out. They're like, we ain't seeing them, but we know who he isn't. in there. So what initially happened is they believe that quando rondo ass is going to basically pop out around the time they pop out. So they go around, they go park at the goddamn, um, and the, and the alley hop out. But before they do, the escalate pulls up, backs in to get gas. So you have the three lanes, right? So the outside, the inside, and then the intermost side, closest to the building. He parks in the middle one, backs up and all of this shit. So, So that's when the shooting happens.
Starting point is 04:40:57 Right after the driver pumps the gas, he closes the door, gets in. The doors open when a little pop is. They walk up in five seconds, like one, two, three, four, maybe four seconds. I don't even think it was five seconds. Might have been three or four seconds. You, and that's it. One dude didn't even shoot his gun. I forget who it is, but he didn't even shoot his shit at all.
Starting point is 04:41:22 What? So that ends the day, but what ends up happening... They got to be Keith Jones then, because they said that Lindsay popped out first and shot. We know Jam definitely going to shoot. So it looked like maybe Keith Jones in the shoot. The end, we find out that OTF GM is coming to snitch tomorrow, bro. So exhibit 124 and 125, this is outside the presence of the jury. That is admitted due to prior orders.
Starting point is 04:41:48 227 and 228 is 404B issue. you, meaning they were hiding this shit. We never got it, which actually wasn't true. The judge can't really understand what's being discussed. We kind of understand what's being discussed a little bit. So, the prosecutors say, it's a text between Jam and Little Dirk, and Jam is going to be snitching to it. It was done January, 2003, where we find out that the block is hot video shoot. That's when they press Jam.
Starting point is 04:42:21 is like hey bray the feds is on it so dirking them know the feds is on and they're like bruh you make it shit hot as hell this is when jam decided to turn snitch nobody killed his baby mama or no shit from o't freder than that shit she actually the the lady who got killed wasn't even his damn baby mama in two damn chat a lot people tell me rest up man tomorrow's gonna be the big day but i ain't gonna lie chat i don't even try in the stream hold up let me see Oh, Trapplo Ross got some shit. Trappler Ross. Oh, he was confused.

Starting point is 04:43:20 All right, let me play this real quick. The little Dirk Murder for Higher Trials conclude. I'm gonna go heat this food up and then we go and watch this traplord raw shit. Give me like, give me a little bit. Give me like two minutes. I'm gonna eat this shit like not even heat it up fully. Just because I love you. Watch this.
Starting point is 04:43:38 First video I see in my timeline is OTF Vani buying jewelry at some point with Dirk in a store that films everything. And look at this. Oh my God. Appreciate it. Shee. That's my birthday. I'm comfortable as fuck. You ain't even know.
Starting point is 04:43:57 Crazy. Obviously, I'm going to try to find as much witness testimony as possible from tweets and articles. Brad Cohen, very experienced lawyer. I think he was even Dirk's lawyer at some point. He's been a lot of people's lawyers. He tweeted, when someone takes a plea and admits to arranging everything for a murder, then says, but Lil Dirk maybe do it, which is what Vani is doing. It's not snitching to say, I don't know what this guy's talking about.
Starting point is 04:44:17 He admits to setting the shit up. He admits to arranging it all. And he has motive to do it. So the narrative right now going around somehow is that Dirk is snitching. I don't know how that started, but that's just defense strategy. I mean, what else are they going to say? We have no idea what's happening. I'm saying.
Starting point is 04:44:31 It's not really snitching to say, I have nothing to do with any of this. The discourse for this trial has been a shit show in Twitter. But let's go into witnesses. All right, four witnesses testified today. After 25-minute recess, prosecutors began calling them. Starting with testimony about the shooting itself, Martha Liu Lo, who testified regarding LAPD 911 calls was the first witness. 911 call was placed for jurors in which a frantic woman reported the shooting of Robinson.
Starting point is 04:44:54 saying the woman could be heard repeatedly saying, oh my God, does she describe the incident? She reported that semi-automatic weapons have been used instead a group of people were responsible. When asked for her information, the woman said she'd not want to be a part of this, explaining that she simply wanted someone to know what happened. The defense did not cross-examine her.
Starting point is 04:45:09 That's very common in these cases. I mean, if you witness a shooting and you can probably guess it's gang related, do you want to give your name over the phone? I wouldn't fuck out of here. I probably ain't even called 911. I'm running, dipping, hiding out of there. All right, LAPD detective, Samuel,
Starting point is 04:45:24 Marillo testified that the shooting occurred at approximately 5.30 p.m. on August 19th, 2022. Marillo said investigators recovered 16, 10mm cell casings, two 9mm shell casings and one bullet jacket at the scene. Juan de Rondo was driving a black 2018 Cadillac Eskley that was parked at a pump number eight. After the shooting, the escalate drove away before coming at a stop at San Vicente Boulevard and Santa Monica Boulevard in which the investigators treated as a second crime scene. The video of Cuando screaming, no, looking at his cousin's dead body. Savannah rapper Cuando Rondo, a passenger in that car, frantic at the site. It all started at this mobile gas station at 5.30 Friday evening. Some very sad shit.
Starting point is 04:46:03 Lindsay's defense attorney crossed him and Marillo about physical evidence. Marillo confirmed that investigators did not find Lindsay's fingerprints or DNA on the gun or at the scene. So that's brown eyes defense attorney trying to separate his client from the incident as much as possible. You can find my client's DNA or fingerprints, right? Luis, a former LA County Sheriff's Deputy testified that he responded after predictions flagged him down. Calvillo approached the escalate and find a victim bleeding inside the vehicle. He pulled Robinson with the SUV and attempted CPR on the ground next to the vehicle. Body camera footage from Calvilla's perspective was shown to the jurors.
Starting point is 04:46:34 Robinson could be heard moaning inside the escalate before Calvillo removed him. Quandarana could also be heard screaming no, according to Calvillo's testimony. Calvilla testified he was unable to resuscitate Robinson. There was no cross on him either. LA County Medical Examiner Dr. Richard Ooo testified about Robinson's autopsy. Ooh? Dude, what are with these names? in these trials recently like ooh I'm gonna say ooh straight up
Starting point is 04:46:56 who said he performed approximately 3,000 autopsies and it's testified in court about 75 times a photograph of Robinson showing three gunshot wounds and an exit wound was shown to the jurors who testified that Rompson suffered four gunshot wounds enlisted the cause of death as gunshot wounds and the manner of death as homicide one bullet wound entered the left side of Robinson chest striking his left rib left lung and heart this sounds just like the folio case like the chest somewhere and hit the lungs and the heart and ribs who satisfied that the wound would have caused internal bleeding and damage of the lung and heart, making breathing and blood circulation difficult.
Starting point is 04:47:28 Two gunshot wounds were looking at Robinson's left bicep. With one person exit wound, a fourth gunshot was looking on his left front forearm. There was no cross on him either. A lot of no cross today, it's pretty standard because it's just basic facts that they really can't dispute about, you know, autopsy and everything. The 911 caller records are always pretty boring in every trial. Literally like when I fucking jump out a window when the 911 caller person is up there. Afternoon Test Me focuses on cars, surveillance, and alleged logistics. After lunch, prosecutors presented extensive surveillance and financial evidence.
Starting point is 04:47:59 Here we go. To connect the alleged shooters to banks into the movements preceding the shooting. No clowning. I got my little chicken palm. I'm good right now. All right. I want to see. I'm going to just hold on to this. I'm going to go speak to Doody. We'll vlog it. Just film you.
Starting point is 04:48:15 All right. So I've been invited to go and talk to Doody Lowe. I never met Doody Lowe. Last I heard Doody Lowe was trying to fight me. me. So this is definitely going to be an interesting one. We're going to see what Doudi Lowe got to say. And hopefully it's positive, all right? I'm seeing the whole free dirt crew outside. And I feel like everybody can kind of see. I've been trying to be impartial recently, but we're going to see. Hey, what's going on? I'm here with Big Dirt family. I do a hot. What's up?
Starting point is 04:48:40 What's up? We got the Duos briefly. Yeah, no, he's a good guy. Yeah, we got the Duos for dirt shirt. So I know you're covering everything. Yeah, yeah, for sure. I know you got your shirt and tie. Hey, what's happening, man? What's all? You do to meet you, man. Hey, we ain't having a fade now. Hey, I got 100,000 now, I just say I'm back. We got bigger stuff to work on now, you know what I'm saying? We got bigger and more important things. Just not sure you do the correct shit, man.
Starting point is 04:48:59 I'm trying to be fair, real honest. No, don't try to be fair, be fair. I'm a fair. Good to meet you though, man. You're the saying, do I don't do. There is no try. But when you do your recap video, make sure you where you do off a dirt shirt, for all the people calling it.
Starting point is 04:49:12 Hey, I want to say, you know, I want to say shout out to Muslimatic, because I've spoken to him before. Yeah, yeah. We are Muslimatic. We all Muslimmatic. We're in Chicago, we everywhere. For real. So when you're making your recap videos, when you do after dirt,
Starting point is 04:49:23 we call it for those believers and everybody else. Call on our life for mercy. Is this called a president or not? What size is this? They're saying, I'll put on weight, man. That's your size. You got L? Okay, okay, we make it L work. I thought you're gonna hit me with double XL, man.
Starting point is 04:49:34 No, I got you. All right, I appreciate it, bro. And I want to see some reports on the Queen too. On the Queen? All the stuff they did in Nigeria and everywhere. The Queen ain't got no songs, Queen got no slaps like Doug, man. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 04:49:46 No, I appreciate it, Brown. No, for real. Thank you, bro. It's all love. God bless you. Good. I was good. What about you?
Starting point is 04:49:54 Wait, what? I said, buddy. Oh, he looks a good. Hey, what's good, man? Hang it in. Hey, what are you saying, Sadie? I just met duty low for the first time, you know what I'm saying? How you feeling about everything going on?
Starting point is 04:50:05 I know everybody. Yeah, you know everybody. You big know everybody, man. You be knowing all the lawyers. Well, I said you look at that trap like that. I'm all my money coming in. If I get a case, I need to call you, man. But you safe, man.
Starting point is 04:50:17 You safe for you in that line as far as coming out. Ain't about going to do shit. I mean, I like what you say. Hey, I feel like I'm saying. They saw me get impressed. They thought like it was over with for me. You know what I'm saying? Nah, no, that's trolling.
Starting point is 04:50:29 They just, you know, they're going to voice their opinions. You're giving an opinion online. Hey, let me tell you this. One thing I like about Trap, he's fearless. Trust me. Like, a lot of dudes, the way they told about Trap, always some white boy from London, you'd have been thought you scared him away already.
Starting point is 04:50:48 Bro, he's going to still show up. I've been impressed. Go to South Central. That's being impressed. That's being impressed. Somebody come to you face that face. All right. Let's see his other video. All right, folks. So I'm here outside the courthouse. Just got out of day three of the Lil Dirk trial. And there's a lot going on. Well, I said eight hours ago. Hold up. Okay. This is all right. So I'm back. I'm outside the courthouse. All right. There's been all sorts going on. I'm going to do a quick update here.
Starting point is 04:51:17 And then what I'm going to do is go and do a full update from my desk. So I have so many notes. I'm just going to sweat to death out here if I do the whole thing. So I'm just going to give you guys like a brief update of kind of the second half, everything that happened in the second half. And I'll be honest. There's probably going to be a few things that I missed, right? There were a few things that I basically thought was a little bit iffy.
Starting point is 04:51:37 No disrespect to anybody at the courtroom. The courtroom staff are doing an amazing job of managing a whole lot of people doing a whole lot of crazy stuff. But for some reason they kept all the accredited media outside the courtroom for like 25 minutes. I don't know if it's because Machine Gun Kelly had come through. He was seemingly getting priority over the media, which was weird. They let MGK in before the media. Maybe he had some sort of secret backdoor celebrity pass. But a lot of the media missed 20 minutes of testimony.
Starting point is 04:52:03 They let in, obviously, Dirk's family, which completely understood, takes priority as well as the Pab's family who were in the courtroom. But yeah, there was about 20 minutes of testimony I missed. Allegedly it was from the lead detective. I didn't actually get the chance to see them introduce themselves. But they basically gave a whole bunch of information. They pretty much showed everything to do with the cars that were used to kill Lil Pab and the whole stalking narrative. I'm not going to lie, they did a very good job of explaining the likely stalking that had been going on.
Starting point is 04:52:31 One of the craziest things, they were talking about the BMW. It was a BMW M5. So these guys were sliding in style. I'm not going to lie to you. That is a super exclusive whip. It was a BMW M5 and an infinity. I don't think they said what kind. I would like to think it was a Q50 if they're coming out from Chicago, but I don't really know.
Starting point is 04:52:47 But basically... Was it M5 competition? That's like some W sliding, you. What I do know is that like that BMW M5, it had a tracker in it. And what was really interesting was Voni had been sliding around in this BMW M5 right before the murder had happened. He'd been driving it around. He'd been parking it at Dirk's California crib in Encino.
Starting point is 04:53:10 They had a GPS tracker that tracked that that kind of, what's it called? It tracked that actual BMW around all these locations, including to Dirk's crib. It was left at Dirk's crib when they flew out to Miami for a day. Apparently, Dirk and Voni and a couple other guys flew out to Miami to do a song with DJ Khalid. And then they came back on the 18th of September. And then... Chad, did you figure out what song he did with Caled? Was it every chance I get?
Starting point is 04:53:40 Suddenly, the hit squad was initiated. Is he on that zone? Vony went straight back to Dirk's house. from the private jet picked up the BMW M5 and started stalking Cuondo Rondo. That BMW M5 had stalked Cuondo Rondo until the early hours of the morning into the morning of the 19th of August.
Starting point is 04:53:58 We saw video footage of the BMW M5 and the Infinity circling around the block outside the level hotel where Cuando was apparently staying. This is in downtown, so not far from the courthouse. And it was just crazy. They were on Cuando's case. We saw footage of Cuando and L'Pab going in and out of the hotel.
Starting point is 04:54:15 I don't know if they'd gone out for a cigarette or just to get something or for a smoke or something, but they'd gone out. So I only eat the chicken. Once they ate the chicken, I'm like, I'm good. To saw them on the street a little bit coming back in, it seemed like the killers had actually missed them by a little bit, and then they spent all night circling the block until like one, past 1 a.m. They didn't have any luck, so they drove back to wherever they were staying. The BMW M5 went back to Dirk's house and was there overnight, and then in the morning they started sliding again. They waited outside Cuendo's hotel to come out and try and catch him.
Starting point is 04:54:44 They followed him all around town. They followed him to the Baving 8 store. We saw footage of them pulling up to Baving 8. Cuando and Lil Pab walking around Baving Ape in Hollywood. I've been to that Baving Ape Store. I've bought loads of stuff in that bathing ape store. I'm thinking what the hell is going on? They showed the cars circling the block in front of the Bap store,
Starting point is 04:55:02 basically stalking Cuando and Pab. They showed them following them from there. They said that they were driving dangerously running red lights, doing all type of stuff to basically keep up with them. They said they were driving dangerously putting the public at risk to continue with this stalking. activity that they were doing, right? So that's screwed up in itself. But you know what's crazy? The detective said, I did a lot of looking into this BMW. I found out it had a GPS tracker.
Starting point is 04:55:23 I went to the exotic car rental spot where the BMW M5 was rented from because the infinity was stolen. Don't know how they got it. They haven't got into that yet. They said that this was crazy. This blew my mind. They said, did you see anything interesting when you pulled up to the rental spot where the BMW was rented from? They said, yeah. They said, what did you see? So I went in the office there at a frame picture of the owner with Lil Dirt. I'm thinking, what the The hell. You had a framed picture of the guy that owned the rental spot that rented the car that was used in the murder. That car went back to Dirk's house in between all of the stalking and the murders. They're saying that that car was two blocks away when the murder happened. The Infinity was the murder car that was used right at the gas station. Voni was apparently, the BMW was apparently waiting. Voni's car was just two blocks away, a seven minute walk away from where the murder happened. Then they all met up it in and out. Then they all went their separate ways. That car went back to Dirk's crib. Now, this is interesting, but Dirk has an explanation. Dirk was never in the car.
Starting point is 04:56:20 Dirk, that's why, this is why when people say, why is Dirk throwing everything on Vani? Well, remember, Dirk's never in the car. Dirk never drove the car. Dirk was never two blocks away. Vani was. Now, the easy explanation is, Vani was allowed to come to my crib.
Starting point is 04:56:37 I didn't know he was bringing some car that was going to be involved in the murder. So Dirk could still claim, I don't know what's going on. Yeah, I know the car tracks back to the Airbnb I met, but I was staying with Bonnie. Vani's my assistant. I'm sorry, but how are you going to explain that? That is crazy.
Starting point is 04:56:56 So they had a whole bunch of records related to that BMW, and I can explain to you more of that in a longer video later on when I get back to my office. But basically, that was just like extremely damning stuff. They then went on to show all of the footage. So obviously in the morning, I'd already told you guys that we had seen this harrowing footage of Lil Pab being taken out of the crime. Kondo screaming, no, little Pab taking his last breaths. Really, really tragic stuff.
Starting point is 04:57:19 And rest in peace to him, my condolences to his family. I did see them in the courtroom today. I didn't approach them. It didn't really feel appropriate in context of what was going on. But rest in peace, my condolences, that was horrible enough. But then we saw even more footage of the shooting as it happened. They had even more angles. The gas station, whereas they got shot up, they pulled up before they actually parked at the gas pump.
Starting point is 04:57:38 And Kondo and Pab went in to get snacks. They had footage from inside the gas station showing Kwondo and Pab getting snacks in the same outfits. They showed the car actually circled around the infinity. It went through the gas station and drove right next to Kondo and Pab's car before it backed into the gas pump. They circled around numerous times, went through the gas station. That was crazy. Obviously, we saw the shooting footage again, but it was synced up with the footage of Kondo in the gas station. So we're seeing them pull up. We're seeing the whole them walking the gas station picking their snacks coming out. It took quite a long time. And then when they're outside finishing up pumping gas, that's when
Starting point is 04:58:09 the shooters come, shoot the place up and drive off. We saw all of that. We also saw Dirk's records we saw his Amex account statements this was bad they said that Dirk first off Dirk had an Amex that had four different people on the accounts that had cars it was his company he had an LLC that I think it was called something like I won't say because I don't want any identifying info but it was called like something sounds it was like an LLC that you might have for the music industry that you might be doing your official activities through right so interestingly enough after that we basically found out the um Dirk had this Amex account, four different people had access, and all of the flights for the hitmen had been booked on that Amex account.
Starting point is 04:58:50 It was bad news, okay? It was bad news, all right? You see the guy across the street? It's my friend. If he comes over, I'm going to film him. So look, they basically found that this Amex account, all right? It had four other people had cards. One of them was Dirk's dad.
Starting point is 04:59:08 One of them was someone that Dirk worked with, that Dirk had hired, and another one was sort of. of almost like someone on the business side of things. But basically what ended up happening, all of the Hitman's flights were booked on the Amex. We saw the statement of the Amex showing everything that was going on with that. We basically saw that he had spent $150,000 in a month on this Amex, $6,700 at Amiri, $3,000 at Neiman Marcus, and several thousand dollars on these hitmen.
Starting point is 04:59:33 Now, it wasn't Dirk's card. It wasn't the Dirk Bank's Amex card, but it was his company, his LLC that he owned account that had all of this stuff paid for. So honestly, that was pretty bad. Okay, that was pretty odd. But, you know, we saw the footage of the hitman arriving in San Diego. They said that they'd had a party bus, a sprinter, that had driven them from San Diego to Los Angeles, all right?
Starting point is 04:59:55 This is all, this is all pretty, pretty serious. I'm not going to lie to you. All of that stuff was just crazy. So there were so many more little details that I want to get into, but I'm going to have to get into it in a separate video. But Dirk's house, he was staying in a house in Encino, California. He had it on a sort of medium-term rental. He was paying $35,000 a month for his rental, and Voni Parking the BMW used in the reconnaissance for the hit at it.
Starting point is 05:00:17 Absolutely crazy. Drove it there after the hit. Had it were there, stored before the hit. They flew out to DJ Khalid studio together. So Voni took that BMW to a shop called R.E.I. or Ray. You Americans can tell me how that's pronounced. I've been there one time, but it's like a, you know, like a sporting good store. He went and bought the ski masks that were using the hit in the store.
Starting point is 05:00:36 All right. They had a receipt for the ski masks that were bought. the exact same ski mask that were used in the hit. They showed the surveillance footage from the hit, showing that they were in the same ski masks. Obviously, I might have already told you guys, but the hitters, actually I wouldn't have already told you guys. The hiters were wearing the same shoes in the hit video.
Starting point is 05:00:53 They changed their top halves, but they kept on the same pants and the same shoes. They had very distinctive shoes. They were looking like different types of retro Jordans to me. Somebody had a pair of red on. Somebody had a black pair with white accents. Somebody had a gray pair of Jordans, like the later stage Jordans type. You know, the top. I'll probably find you a picture in another video when I'm at my desk.
Starting point is 05:01:10 But basically they wore the same pants and the same shoes on the hit when they had the ski masks on and then to in and out with their faces out Absolute insanity now what was really crazy I might let this ambulance go by first before I tell you the next part because you ain't gonna be able to hear nothing and there's an ambulance Sliding sliding on me right now okay So there was like there was just so much going on right there's just a lot going on I'm gonna address everything else that's going on later on Okay chat I'm gonna read some donations but we're about to call it call it a night Chad, 10 hours.
