Rapper Lil Durk, born Durk Banks, was found not guilty on September 11, 2026, in his federal murder-for-hire trial tied to the 2022 killing of Quando Rondo’s cousin. Prosecutors accused him of orchestrating a revenge plot for King Von’s death, but his defense team, led by Brian Steel, Drew Findling, and others, argued a tsunami of reasonable doubt.
Steel dismantled cooperating witnesses as self-serving snitches and showed no evidence of payment, leading the jury to acquit after three days of deliberation. Amid the latest verdict in the case, Lil’s career and personal life have come into the limelight. But apart from that, his attorney, Brian Steel, has also grabbed a lot of attention.
Brian Steel previously secured freedom for Young Thug
