Rapper Quando Rondo’s friend and shooter Lul Tim was charged with g*nning down rival rapper King Von in an Atlanta strip club parking lot in 2020.
Shortly afterwards, prosecutors charged him with with Von’s m*rder and he had been out on bail since.
Well the case is now officially closed, Media Take Out has learned. According to multiple reports, Tim is no longer being charged with Von’s m*rder. Instead prosecutors see the case as an act of self-defense.
In the lead up to the eventual act, Chicago rapper King Von was seen punching Rondo, sparking a brawl between the two rappers’ crews – and eventually leading to Lil Tim pulling a stick and ending Von’s life.
King Von was an American gangsta rapper from Chicago, Illinois. He was signed to Lil Durk’s record label Only the Family and Empire Distribution. During Von’s life, and after his killing, he was implicated in various homicides and alleged crimes related to the Chicago gang scene.
Von garnered acclaim for singles “Crazy Story” and “Took Her to the O”, which reached the forty-fourth position of the Billboard Hot 100, and for the studio album Welcome to O’Block (2020), which placed fifth on the Billboard 200.
Von and his crew were involved in an altercation with Quando Rondo’s crew outside of the Monaco hookah lounge in Atlanta, Georgia. The dispute quickly escalated into gunfire, and Von was shot multiple times.
He was transported to a hospital in critical condition and died there later that day. He was 26 years old.
