DJ Akademiks claims that the prosecutor in the Lil Durk trial jeopardized his safety by mentioning his name

He listed the witnesses he's now exposed to and said none had his problem.

DJ Akademiks spent a stream arguing to the prosecutor in Lil Durk's federal murder-for-hire trial that putting his name in the case endangered his life. He denied being a witness, claiming nobody asked him if he received anything from Durk, and stated that his facial expression is being exploited against him.

DJ Akademiks Blasts Lil Durk Prosecutors for Namin The Los Angeles courtroom has repeatedly mentioned DJ Akademiks during the trial of Durk Banks and two co-defendants for killing Saviay’a Robinson, known as Lul Pab, at a Beverly Center gas station in August 2022. ed him. Prosecutors say Quando Rondo was targeted. Judge Michael W. Fitzgerald sided with Akademiks on Wednesday about how often the jury mentioned his name during deliberations. Akademiks thanked the judge for his sympathies.

His argument is that the authorities implied Durk confessed based on his interview reaction. He claimed no one asked him about that. He repeated that it was risky to presume that a glance on his face meant he confirmed murder communications.

He kept returning to who else is involved. He described three collaborating witnesses the prosecution and defense had used. He termed Flacka a proven murderer. OTF Jam, a serial murderer characterized by the defense, confessed to three murders at a police station, according to Akademiks. He also mentioned OTF Vonni's alleged cartel ties in the trial. These people now have his name in their procedures, and he didn't choose to meet them.

Described the complaint's weighty imbalance. He stated witnesses receive witness protection, new identities, and the ability to move somewhere unknown. He doesn't get that. He labeled himself a sitting duck, a hip hop media personality from Jamaica without criminal ties who lives in New Jersey and has never been to Chicago. His address is on Google.

He then asked. He noted that the authorities depicted the incident as the individuals driving a stolen Infiniti down an alleyway, getting out, and killing someone in front of the Beverly Center in Los Angeles. He wondered what prosecutors would do to him if they told a jury those men were so audacious.

He directly addressed the prosecutor, telling him that you cannot throw civilians to the wolves to condemn Durk. It was repeated twice. He also suggested that OTF Jam blame Durk and Akademiks if he doesn't obtain the deal as planned.

Akademiks claimed he is not taking sides in the trial and that justice should prevail.

The jury is out. If convicted on all five counts—conspiracy to commit stalking, stalking using a dangerous weapon, stalking resulting in death, conspiracy to use interstate commerce facilities in a murder for hire resulting in death, and using interstate commerce facilities in a murder for hire resulting in death—Durk faces life in prison. A separate racketeering action involving OTF's gang status awaits.

The court has not proven anything Akademiks claimed. His name kept appearing in a federal courtroom where he was not prosecuted, called, or protected.
