Lil Durk has allegedly not been following the rules while behind bars in a California jail awaiting trial on his murder-for-hire charges.
According to a video published by Law & Crime on Tuesday (December 17), a recently-published brief shows more insight into why the Chicago rapper was denied bond – which includes prosecutors arguing that he has a pattern of “criminal behavior and interference.” More notable, however, is they also state that he hasn’t been following the rules at Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Los Angeles.
“Despite clear instructions to not engage in three-way calls, defendant repeatedly abused the phone system at MDC to engage in such conduct,” the brief reads.

At a hearing on December 12, the judge sided with the prosecution and denied Lil Durk’s request for bond.
In addition to the aforementioned details, prosecutors also presented information that linked Durk to the killing of an alleged Chicago gang leader. This is separate for the alleged murder-for-hire he’s currently behind bars for.
Newly unsealed court documents claim the rapper (real name Durk Banks) funded the January 2022 shooting death of Stephon Mack, the alleged leader of the Smashville faction of the Gangster Disciples.
The killing is believed to have been payback for the murder of Durk’s brother Dontay “DThang” Banks, who was shot to death outside a nightclub in Harvey, Illinois in 2021.
“Lil Durk was and still is offering money for people to kill those responsible for his brother’s murder, and more specifically, offering to pay money for any Gangster Disciple that is killed,” a federal agent wrote in the filing, which was submitted in April 2023 but unsealed on Wednesday (December 11).
Durk has not been charged in connection with Mack’s murder, although police sources told the Chicago Tribune that an investigation is still ongoing.
Two men, Anthony Montgomery-Wilson and Preston Powell, were charged earlier this year with conspiracy to commit murder-for-hire in Mack’s killing.
Investigators allegedly discovered a two-person text message conversation on Montgomery-Wilson’s phone in which one person asked: “Did durk gave (sic) u that money.”
Lil Durk’s trial is set to begin on January 7.
