Lil Durk has been hit with new felony charges in connection with an alleged murder-for-hire plot.

The Chicago rapper is facing charges of one count of conspiracy, one count of use of interstate facilities to commit murder-for-hire resulting in death, and one count of using, carrying, and discharging firearms and a machine gun and possession of such firearms in furtherance of a crime of violence resulting in death.

If convicted, he is facing life in prison.

Prosecutors say that Durk tried to avenge late rapper King Von’s death by hiring five members of OTF to fly to Los Angeles and murder Quando Rondo. Rondo was not hit during the shooting, but they fatally hit his cousin, Lul Pab.

“Cases like these that span multiple states and jurisdictions are complicated and can oftentimes only be resolved through the collaboration of multiple departments,” said Los Angeles Police Chief Dominic Choi. “This arrest is the culmination of the combined efforts of our partners in the U.S. Attorney’s Office, the FBI, and LAPD’s Operation West Bureau Homicide detectives who discovered that Durk D a.k.a. Lil Durk was involved in this heinous murder. The hundreds of hours spent on the investigation included surveillance, authoring numerous search warrants, using forensic technology, and tireless investigative travel and collaboration alongside our federal partners led to this arrest. I am appreciative of the dedication of those involved.”
