- 0:45since the 1980s gangster rap has been
- 0:48one of Hip Hop's Most Fascinating sub
- 0:49genres from the Mean Streets of gang
- 0:51infested Los Angeles that were brought
- 0:53to life by early gangster rap Pioneers
- 0:55like Ice Cube and NWA to Tupac and sug
- 0:58Knight taking over the music game with
- 1:00Vivid Tales of gang affiliated rappers
- 1:02who would bully their way into the music
- 1:03industry and then you have Legends like
- 1:05Jay-Z and 50 Cent whose Tales of life in
- 1:08the streets as gangsters made the
- 1:09millionaires hundreds of times over for
- 1:11decades now rap fans have been looking
- 1:13for the realest artists whose lyrics
- 1:15paint a picture of a real life of crime
- 1:18that isn't embellished or fabricated but
- 1:20when it comes to rappers who truly keep
- 1:22it real the Chicago drill scene has
- 1:24dominated for the last decade first
- 1:26popularized by Chief Keef the Chicago
- 1:27drill wave was characterized by rappers
- 1:29that grew up in the most dangerous
- 1:31blocks in America with these upand
- 1:32cominging artists rapping plainly and
- 1:34honestly about what they experienced
- 1:36growing up shootings on the Block
- 1:37disrespecting dead enemies and
- 1:39constantly being chased by the police
- 1:41Chicago drill rappers took gangster rap
- 1:43to Raw New Heights where the Stories
- 1:45Behind the Music could be matched up
- 1:46with the local news reports on the
- 1:48latest homicides however what happens
- 1:50when the people doing The Killing start
- 1:52making the music too because in the
- 1:54years after Chief Keef popularized the
- 1:56violent stories of Chicago gang life one
- 1:59of those gangsters killing people in the
- 2:00streets picked up a microphone too and
- 2:03started rapping in the first person from
- 2:04the perspective the actual killer king
- 2:07Von had a reputation in Chicago as a
- 2:09Fearless killer before he'd even started
- 2:11rapping and it's widely believed based
- 2:13on the statements he made in his own
- 2:14songs that Von himself could have killed
- 2:17as many as seven people in his career as
- 2:19a gangbanger with more murders even
- 2:21taking place after he got rich and
- 2:22famous with it being rumored that V used
- 2:24his money and influence from the rap
- 2:26game to have old enemies in Chicago
- 2:28killed and going on Journey which in my
- 2:30opinion takes him far beyond a street
- 2:32player who had to kill to survive in the
- 2:34Mean Streets of Chicago because if King
- 2:36Von's tweets or anything to go by he
- 2:38simply loved killing people and the
- 2:40sheer amount of people that King Von
- 2:41allegedly played a role in killing has
- 2:43led to intense speculation as to whether
- 2:45he was a full-blown serial killer a
- 2:48title which king Von's enemies even said
- 2:50that him and his friends took personal
- 2:52pride in now the FBI defines a serial
- 2:54killer as a person who kills over three
- 2:56people with time spans in between them
- 2:58of more than a month furthermore serial
- 3:01killers tend to have an element of
- 3:02psychological gratification which plays
- 3:04a role in the motive for their murders
- 3:06the FBI also state that a serial killer
- 3:08might seek various kinds of
- 3:09gratification through their killings
- 3:11such as anger thrill-seeking financial
- 3:14gain or simply for attention I
- 3:16personally believe that over the course
- 3:17of his career King Von demonstrated all
- 3:19of these characteristics and can indeed
- 3:21be classified as a serial killer king
- 3:23Von frequently exhibited behavior in
- 3:25public that conformed with these rules
- 3:27tweeting regularly about his desire to
- 3:29kill bragging about having committed
- 3:31specific murders in his music which
- 3:33attracted him International attention
- 3:35and billboard charting songs with his
- 3:37drill anthems about murdering Rivals
- 3:39making him a rich man with millions in
- 3:41his bank account the FBI also points out
- 3:44another characteristic of serial killers
- 3:46specifically that their victims may all
- 3:47have something in common for example a
- 3:49demographic profile appearance gender or
- 3:52race and it would appear that King Von
- 3:54only killed young black men and women
- 3:56from the community he lived in these
- 3:58were all people just like him being born
- 4:00into a rundown part of Chicago and
- 4:02growing up with a lot of disadvantages
- 4:04all that really separated Von from his
- 4:05victims were the fact that they were
- 4:07from a rival territory and he believed
- 4:09that nobody would miss them King Von has
- 4:11officially been implicated in four
- 4:12murders two where he was suspected of
- 4:14being involved but the police didn't
- 4:16have enough evidence to charge and one
- 4:18case where he narrowly received a not-
- 4:20guilty verdict after a key witness
- 4:22disappeared and a codefendant implicated
- 4:24himself another that he's accused of
- 4:25organizing with five of his closest
- 4:27childhood friends the shooting of rival
- 4:29rapper FBG Duck in broad daylight at a
- 4:32busy shopping district Von will never
- 4:34face Justice for due to him losing his
- 4:35life only months before the feds would
- 4:37swoop in and arrest all five of his
- 4:39close friends this particular murder
- 4:41would go down as one of the most Brazen
- 4:43assassinations carried out in Chicago
- 4:45since the days of Al Capone but in total
- 4:47there's over 10 murders of which king
- 4:49Von has been connected to over the years
- 4:51and nobody has looked into all of them
- 4:53in great detail until now so today we're
- 4:56going to take a closer look at the man
- 4:58his past and his career career to find
- 5:00out once and for all if King Von really
- 5:02was the first serial killer in hip-hop
- 5:05history she in jail for two murders yeah
- 5:08one murder and two attempts four
- 5:10Shooters and a hail of bullets all in
- 5:12was scar of V all in was scar of vom
- 5:14police found several shell casing in
- 5:16this parking lot King Von was
- 5:17bloodthirsty he loved death he loved
- 5:19killing I got a lot of man just how many
- 5:21I think King Von had satiable obsession
- 5:24with murder and violence shooting leaves
- 5:27one person Dead four others injured
- 5:30he Ain I know you you ain't know me are
- 5:32you king V probably would have been
- 5:34considered like a serial killer they lab
- 5:36with the man a serial killer
- 5:41D King Von real named dvon Bennett was
- 5:44born on August the 9th 1994 in Chicago
- 5:46Illinois growing up on West 78th and
- 5:49South Hermitage in an area known as
- 5:51killer Ward an area mainly affiliated
- 5:53with the Chicago gangs the Gangster
- 5:55Disciples and the black PE Stones Von
- 5:57would attend Barton Elementary School in
- 5:59the area but despite starting Life as a
- 6:01fairly normal kid in Chicago he would be
- 6:03subjected to the influence of gang
- 6:04banging in his family home from a young
- 6:06age his father was Walter E Bennett AKA
- 6:09silk a well-known Street dude from
- 6:10nearby adaah park Von was mainly raised
- 6:13by his mother as his father was in and
- 6:14out of jail throughout his childhood but
- 6:16Von's father was apparently a legend in
- 6:18the streets with ties to the street gang
- 6:20the Black Disciples however much like
- 6:22Von despite the Fearsome reputation he'
- 6:24earned in the streets it would
- 6:25ultimately be this proximity to gang
- 6:27life that would lead to his father's
- 6:28demise as king Von dad silk was shot
- 6:30dead when Von was only 11 years old
- 6:33apparently being targeted by a sniper
- 6:35outside of a skating rink according to
- 6:36an interview with King Von's Uncle rest
- 6:38in peace King Von rest in peace crazy
- 6:41like I'm with big bro every day kill his
- 6:43daddy with sniper rifle this this get
- 6:46deep though you know what I'm saying
- 6:48yeah yeah sniper hit him with a sniper
- 6:50rifle at at the skate ring but you know
- 6:53that's another story it seemed clear
- 6:54that King Von's father silk was
- 6:55remembered as a legend of the block
- 6:57however coping with the loss of his
- 6:59father at such a young age clearly had a
- 7:01negative effect on the mindset of a
- 7:03young king vau he would tweet and rap in
- 7:04freestyles years later that he simply
- 7:07couldn't sleep after his father's death
- 7:08they my daddy I couldn't even go to
- 7:10sleep and throughout his teenage years
- 7:11he would post rip tributes to his father
- 7:13on Twitter to commemorate his birth days
- 7:16naturally V would follow in his Father's
- 7:17Footsteps getting involved in local gang
- 7:19politics at a young age with Von
- 7:21actually telling 16 shot visuals in his
- 7:24very first interview that he got
- 7:25involved in the streets in fourth grade
- 7:27eventually getting his hands on guns by
- 7:29by the time he got to high school was
- 7:31like told P fourth grade like when you
- 7:33started something it was that heck like
- 7:36it I just been you know in the streets I
- 7:39like outside one of little boys that
- 7:42like being outside just
- 7:44do the gun
- 7:47all that kind of play to like what scho
- 7:50yeah like late 8th grade grade when it
- 7:54really got to that point where you got
- 7:55to hurt somebody or somebody trying to
- 7:57hurt you and you got to protect yourself
- 7:58one would rap on the unreleased song
- 8:00wait that he jumped off the porch
- 8:02getting deeply involved in gang politics
- 8:04in 2006 when he was just 12 years old
- 8:06Von would initially be a member of a
- 8:08local Street crew affiliated with the
- 8:10Gangster Disciples called killaward
- 8:12being seen in numerous group pictures
- 8:14with that crew an Affiliates from the
- 8:15area would later post tweets suggesting
- 8:17that Von was indeed putting in work for
- 8:19This Crew during his time gang banging
- 8:21in killer wward with Von himself
- 8:22corroborating that he was close to the
- 8:24members in Kill award where he was born
- 8:26but making it clear that he's always
- 8:28been a member of the Black Disciples due
- 8:29to his family affiliation now Von would
- 8:31live around kward up to around 2008 or 9
- 8:34after which he would eventually move to
- 8:36the infamous Parkway Gardens Housing
- 8:38Development this housing complex is
- 8:39notorious for its affiliations with the
- 8:41Black Disciples street gang Parkway
- 8:43Gardens would later be referred to by
- 8:45insiders as oblock but prior to that it
- 8:47was referred to as Wick City and here
- 8:49King Von would meet many of the people
- 8:51who would end up having a huge influence
- 8:52on his life and career people famous for
- 8:54their affiliation to oblock whether
- 8:56through the gang wars going on there or
- 8:58through the music that had been made
- 8:59about the gang war people like boss top
- 9:01Chief Keef T Roy white white Duke BJ big
- 9:05a Trey 5 shoid J Money patoon and
- 9:09countless other people that played a big
- 9:11role in Von's life growing up Von would
- 9:13also attend a new school in the area the
- 9:15Hy Park Academy where he would attend
- 9:16with people from other rival territories
- 9:18with affiliations to the Gangster
- 9:19Disciples people like FBG Duck who would
- 9:22even claim in a Twitter Exchange in 2014
- 9:24who have plotted to beat king Von up on
- 9:26the school bus and people like Lil Mark
- 9:28who Von would even be in throwback
- 9:30pictures with before their Feud had
- 9:31escalated into something deadly V and
- 9:33his friends started out their
- 9:35gangbanging careers with fist fights
- 9:36with the Ops at school schoolyard
- 9:38scuffles that would unfortunately
- 9:40escalate over the coming years
- 9:41developing into full-blown gang war with
- 9:43Firearms involved over time a teenage
- 9:45Von would begin getting more and more
- 9:47involved in Chicago Street gang
- 9:49conflicts apparently bringing guns to
- 9:51school as young as age 13 chop Squad who
- 9:53went to school with both Von and G herbo
- 9:55would claim that Von would even show off
- 9:57guns in class with it apparently being
- 9:59Von himself who started the trend of
- 10:01teenage gangbangers in their school
- 10:02bringing guns to class V the type of
- 10:05person to bring a pole to school at 13
- 10:06for like that's what me and her was
- 10:09talking about he was like her was like
- 10:10he knew it was real when when V walked
- 10:12up to him in school he was like he had
- 10:14flashed the pole or something he was
- 10:15like her knew every day from there it
- 10:17was up he was like oh we bringing gun to
- 10:19school you know what I'm saying like oh
- 10:20it's on now like every day from there he
- 10:22brought every day from there everybody
- 10:24brought guns to school oh man he like V
- 10:26was the one that start that off in fact
- 10:27G herbo would even later wrap up about
- 10:29this on a collaboration with Von called
- 10:31FaceTime saying that Von showed him a
- 10:33revolver in freshman orientation an
- 10:35experience which led G herbo to begin
- 10:37bringing guns to school himself too now
- 10:39King Von was apparently out of control
- 10:41as a youngster according to one story
- 10:43Von actually did a shooting on Prom
- 10:44Knight whilst wearing his suit after
- 10:46literally tweeting out that somebody
- 10:48better not try him in his suit so
- 10:49naturally you can imagine Von ended up
- 10:51spending a significant amount of time in
- 10:53trouble with the law as a teenager with
- 10:55large patches of his most formative
- 10:57years spent inside jail cells went to
- 10:59jail for the first time around August
- 11:012010 at age 16 for armed robbery
- 11:04apparently robbing someone for their car
- 11:05at gunpoint something that he would
- 11:07actually later refer to on his song
- 11:08armed and dangerous saying that he was
- 11:10arrested on August 11th 2 days after his
- 11:1217th birthday when he was offered 21 to
- 11:1545 years in a plea deal Von would end up
- 11:17spending time in boot camp an intense
- 11:19military style juvenile program
- 11:21ultimately rewarding him with early
- 11:23release but soon after that initial
- 11:24charge Von would catch another in
- 11:26January 2011 ultimately spending 15
- 11:28months behind bars as a juvenile being
- 11:31locked up between December 2010 and
- 11:33March 2012 and during this time of
- 11:35incarceration Von's best friend T Roy
- 11:37would tweak calling for his release
- 11:39eventually in March 2012th Von would be
- 11:41a free man once again but he was only
- 11:42free for a matter of months from March
- 11:44to November 2012 but during this time
- 11:46Von would undergo a transformation going
- 11:48from a gun toting stickup kid to a
- 11:50full-fledged killer after witnessing the
- 11:52death of one of his close friends which
- 11:54as he put it turned him into a demon
- 11:59before we get into the first murders
- 12:01that King Von was allegedly involved in
- 12:02I just want to take the time to consider
- 12:04the real reasons why he would be
- 12:05motivated to kill in the first place
- 12:08despite covering a lot of gangsters who
- 12:09are hardened Killers it's important to
- 12:11consider the social circumstances that
- 12:13need to exist for a teenage boy to start
- 12:15committing murders firstly these areas
- 12:17where King Von grew up in Southside
- 12:19Chicago killer Ward and oblock are
- 12:21incredibly poor and dangerous areas with
- 12:23the latter even being described by the
- 12:24local Sun Times newspaper as the most
- 12:27dangerous Block in Chicago part the
- 12:29reason why so many of these gang murders
- 12:31in Chicago go unsolved is due to the
- 12:33failure of policing in these areas
- 12:34someone like King Von grew up seeing
- 12:36death and destruction as a completely
- 12:38normal thing and if the police never
- 12:39come to your area to solve crimes or
- 12:41deliver Justice it's easy to see why you
- 12:43would Place more trust in Street Justice
- 12:45than in the state furthermore you really
- 12:47have to ponder whose fault is it really
- 12:49that somewhere like oblock ended up
- 12:51being so poor and dangerous while it's
- 12:52easy to blame the gangsters and killers
- 12:54there for cultivating a lawless
- 12:56environment the city and the state
- 12:57politicians ultimately have failed to
- 12:59create the economic circumstances for
- 13:01someone to grow up safely in these areas
- 13:03had there been better economic prospects
- 13:05in the hoods of Chicago perhaps many of
- 13:06these young men wouldn't have been
- 13:08forced into a life of crime and violence
- 13:10furthermore when it comes to the
- 13:11analysis of King Von's eventual
- 13:12transformation into what some have
- 13:14described as a serial killer there's
- 13:16actually an argument to be made that
- 13:17geography may have played a part in King
- 13:19Von feeling like he could get away with
- 13:21so many murders the' 70s to the 2000s
- 13:23have actually been described as the
- 13:25Golden Age of Serial murder and one
- 13:27possible cause for this phenomenon
- 13:28around this period has been cited as
- 13:30urbanization and the concentration of
- 13:32inner city living some people have said
- 13:34that putting so many people in such
- 13:36close proximity ends up offering a
- 13:38unique level of anonymity when it comes
- 13:40to committing crimes in these
- 13:41complicated busy and overpopulated areas
- 13:44but simply this means that in oock the
- 13:46sheer amount of people overlapping gang
- 13:48conflicts and normalization of violence
- 13:50on the streets means that somebody like
- 13:52King Von could kill multiple people
- 13:54without attracting too much attention to
- 13:55him personally as sad as it is to say in
- 13:57the eyes of the cops a VI him is just
- 13:59another casualty of the gang war rather
- 14:01than a specific crime that could be
- 14:02solved and it's these circumstances that
- 14:04were the perfect conditions for a young
- 14:06king Von to begin killing people in his
- 14:08community with minimal consequences and
- 14:10whilst King Von was in jail gun violence
- 14:12had raged on between the Black Disciples
- 14:14from Wick City and the Rival Gangster
- 14:16Disciples from St Lawrence and art
- 14:18Avenues or stlebt and during this time
- 14:20whilst King Von was incarcerated a
- 14:2215-year old Gangster Disciple from the
- 14:24Rival Hood by the name of Tuka was
- 14:26murdered real name shaale Gregory Tuka
- 14:28was shot dead at a bus stop on the 600
- 14:31block of East 63rd Street on the 12th of
- 14:33January 2011 at around 6:48 p.m. it was
- 14:36around that time that a masked gunman
- 14:38jumped out of a vehicle shooting Tuka
- 14:40several times Tuka was hated by his
- 14:42Rivals from the Black Disciples and over
- 14:44the next decade BS would continue to
- 14:46disrespect him on social media and in
- 14:48popular songs and in honor of their
- 14:50Fallen Friend Gangster Disciples from St
- 14:52Lawrence and eart would rename their
- 14:54area tuille it's never been fully
- 14:55revealed to the public who killed Tuka
- 14:57but ever since there has been intense
- 14:59speculation that a boy named OD Perry
- 15:01from Wick City might have had something
- 15:03to do with it this is partly due to him
- 15:05being pictured regularly with a silver
- 15:07revolver and the witness report from the
- 15:08Tuka murder stated that Tuka was
- 15:10actually shot with a long barreled
- 15:12silver revolver regardless of whether or
- 15:13not OD was really the person who killed
- 15:15Tuka that didn't really matter because
- 15:17later that year on August the 10th 2011
- 15:19in an act of retaliation OD Perry was
- 15:21killed just outside Parkway Gardens he
- 15:23would suffer multiple gunshot wounds
- 15:25including one to the neck at about 11:35
- 15:28p.m. just like two Wick city was also
- 15:30renamed in the memory of their Fallen
- 15:32Friend OD oblock and it's believed that
- 15:34one of the shooters who killed OD was a
- 15:36female teenage shooter by the name of
- 15:38jakyra barns or Ki following the murder
- 15:41Ki would begin to pose on social media
- 15:43with a silver revolver similar to the
- 15:45one that OD was known to carry and her
- 15:47rumored involvement in this murder of a
- 15:49beloved oblock member would lead to KI
- 15:51becoming a major Target herself with
- 15:53matters not helped by the fact that she
- 15:55would regularly tweet insulting OD Perry
- 15:58and alluding to have having killed him
- 15:59along with others who would openly claim
- 16:01that Ki made the O meaning that she
- 16:04killed OD and was the one that caused
- 16:06Wick City to change the name of their
- 16:08block to oblock but the tragedies in
- 16:09oock were far from over on the 18th of
- 16:11October 2011 another oblock native by
- 16:14the name of Pon real name Edward Riley
- 16:16would be shot dead inside oblock after
- 16:18being approached by two people with
- 16:20Firearms another devastating loss to the
- 16:22community would come when 19-year-old
- 16:23sheroid ligins would be shot in the head
- 16:26and left for dead on February the 16th
- 16:282012 also oblock this murder was
- 16:30particularly notable for the fact that
- 16:32it was believed that sheroid was killed
- 16:33by a tuille shooter by the name of boss
- 16:35tril as the gang war in his neighborhood
- 16:37continued to take more and more of his
- 16:38friends lives King Von would get more
- 16:40and more involved continuing to play a
- 16:42role in the gang war going on in Chicago
- 16:44Street underworld Von later wrapped on
- 16:46the song don't want to be me that
- 16:48everything changed for him in 2012 and
- 16:50that this is when he decided to get more
- 16:52active in the gang war with Von saying
- 16:54specifically that the deaths of OD and
- 16:56patoon completely changed his plans and
- 16:58led him to put on a mask and get active
- 17:00in the gang war now there's a lot of
- 17:01speculation about the exact murders that
- 17:03Von was allegedly involved in and we
- 17:05might never know definitively if he was
- 17:06truly involved in all the violence that
- 17:08he was rumored to be associated with but
- 17:10the very first murder that Von was
- 17:12associated with took place on April the
- 17:1428th 2012 when a group of four men would
- 17:17catch a man called King doc real name
- 17:19Marlon Monroe shooting him as he walked
- 17:21into a convenience store with Doc
- 17:23apparently stumbling into a patch of
- 17:24tall weeds after the shooting where he
- 17:26would pass away and lay undiscovered for
- 17:28hours doc would eventually be found dead
- 17:30by his 16-year-old cousin Modell mcry
- 17:33doc would be remembered as an original
- 17:34native of St Lawrence and eah avenues
- 17:37with his affiliation to the area likely
- 17:39the reason that the killers from oblock
- 17:40would Target him despite the fact that
- 17:42doc had apparently left the gang life
- 17:44behind him becoming a painter to get out
- 17:46of the streets apparently hurt by the
- 17:48death of his cousin Modell that boy who
- 17:50discovered Doc's body would then begin
- 17:52to get more involved in the gangs in the
- 17:53area too beginning to hang around with
- 17:55people like Ki and FBG Duck as well as
- 17:58being seen on social social media with
- 17:59guns in fact it's actually around this
- 18:01time that social media begins to play a
- 18:03bigger and bigger role in the gang war
- 18:05in Chicago and during this time King Von
- 18:07himself would become a prolific user of
- 18:09Twitter beginning a flurry of activity
- 18:11on the platform after signing up in June
- 18:132012 and going on to tweet constantly
- 18:15about his activities in the streets
- 18:17seemingly with no fear about
- 18:18incriminating himself Von would openly
- 18:20claim to be drilling in the name of OD
- 18:22Perry he would say that he was like
- 18:24Phineas and furb in the streets with his
- 18:25best friend and fellow oblock shooter T
- 18:27Roy warning not to diss them claiming to
- 18:30shoot people like it's nothing he would
- 18:32tweet that he's been drilling from Young
- 18:33and even wants to kill cops too he would
- 18:35say outright that he will whack people
- 18:37he would regularly diss numerous rival
- 18:39hoods and gangs and be claiming to be
- 18:41paranoid due to having so many people
- 18:43trying to kill him Von claimed on
- 18:44Twitter to get so enraged whenever he
- 18:46hears the name Tuka or St Lawrence that
- 18:48his trigger finger just starts itching
- 18:50but during this time that Von was
- 18:52tweeting openly about all the crimes
- 18:53that he was willing to do in the streets
- 18:55these crimes would continue to play out
- 18:57on August the 7th 2012 Von would make a
- 18:59tweet saying that homicide is in the air
- 19:01and that it smells like a graveyard then
- 19:03in the early hours of the morning the
- 19:05following day on August the 8th 2012 a
- 19:07group of guys from oblock rumored to
- 19:09include King Von and Troy would be out
- 19:11looking for enemies to kill dirty real
- 19:14real named toell Joshua an older member
- 19:16with affiliations to St Lawrence eaha
- 19:18and jarro City who had actually moved
- 19:20out of Chicago but was back in town
- 19:22would end up being shot dead and found
- 19:24on a sidewalk on the first block of East
- 19:2656th Street in Washington Park just
- 19:28before 3:30 a.m. however in this case
- 19:30retaliation would come fast as the day
- 19:32of August 8th 2012 goes by that same
- 19:35evening around 11:30 p.m. King vaugh is
- 19:37out with his close friend white white
- 19:39real Nam Tony Dunn they would go to a
- 19:41convenience store together on East 63rd
- 19:43Street and South Martin Luther King
- 19:44Drive here Von would go inside the store
- 19:46whilst white white waited outside at
- 19:48this point a gunman pulls up shooting
- 19:50white white in the back with a police
- 19:52officer on the scene even returning fire
- 19:54and hitting the shooter who ultimately
- 19:56managed to escape white white would be
- 19:57pronounced dead in the early hours of
- 19:59the morning on August the 9th 2012 this
- 20:01day just so happened to be king Von's
- 20:0318th birthday this was a devastating
- 20:06incident for Von who would tweet
- 20:07numerous times about the murder of his
- 20:09friend Whitey including this one where
- 20:11he said that he had just bought Whitey a
- 20:12pill and gone inside the store only
- 20:14coming back outside to find a crowd
- 20:16surrounding his shot friend and at first
- 20:18believing that Whitey would be okay
- 20:19after this Von would tweet messages
- 20:21saying that this killing is what led him
- 20:23to act out and in the days following he
- 20:25would be pledging to kill his enemies
- 20:26publicly Von later elaborated on his
- 20:28mindset around this period in his song
- 20:30Demon saying outright that witnessing
- 20:32the death of his close friend YT on his
- 20:3418th birthday is the exact thing that
- 20:36turned him into a demon and Von would
- 20:38rap that after this him and his
- 20:39right-hand man Troy would be doing hits
- 20:41back to back to avenge this tragic loss
- 20:44Von would apparently be trying to kill
- 20:46much more ruthlessly after this
- 20:47desperately wanting to get up rival
- 20:49Shooters Ki and woi who had mocked white
- 20:51White's death on Twitter in September
- 20:532012 King Von and others caught KI on
- 20:55the train apparently beating her up and
- 20:58mocking her on on Twitter in the
- 20:59aftermath Von would eventually catch up
- 21:01with Ki in much more deadly
- 21:02circumstances but not for a couple of
- 21:04years for now he would continue to gang
- 21:06bang in the streets with his oblock
- 21:08brothers like T Roy ultimately winding
- 21:10up implicated in numerous murders as he
- 21:12continued to seek revenge for the murder
- 21:14of white white and one body at a time
- 21:16building up a fearsome reputation as one
- 21:18of oo's most ruthless
- 21:22Killers Chicago drill veteran take aone
- 21:25would tell 16 shot visuals in an
- 21:27interview that if you hung around King
- 21:29Von in 2012 you simply had to accept
- 21:31that you would be in shootouts if you
- 21:33was hanging with v you had to accept
- 21:35everything that came with v you had to
- 21:37accept that you was going to be in
- 21:38shooting accept that he it was going to
- 21:40be that and you had to be with it you
- 21:41feel me with v King Von was on a mission
- 21:43in 2012 to get revenge for the friends
- 21:45that he had lost to the gang war losing
- 21:47OD patoon and white white turned him
- 21:49into a demon he said so he would spend
- 21:52every day in the streets of Chicago
- 21:54stalking his Ops and broadcasting his
- 21:56activities on Twitter for the whole
- 21:57world to see on September the 6th 2012
- 22:00Von would get arrested even taking
- 22:02selfies for Twitter inside of the cop
- 22:04car he would post pictures of him and
- 22:05his partner in crime Troy dubbing
- 22:07themselves the oblock Savages in fact
- 22:10after posting one picture together one
- 22:12woman from oblock even suggested that
- 22:14Von and T Roy stopped being photographed
- 22:16together in case somebody sends it to
- 22:17the police Von would tweet how him and T
- 22:19Roy's names were ringing in the streets
- 22:21and that people were praising them for
- 22:23doing their thing regularly using this
- 22:25as a catchphrase to refer to his
- 22:26drilling tweeting warnings to the Ops
- 22:28that he's about to go on their block and
- 22:30do his thingy thing telling them that
- 22:32they have 2 hours to clear the streets
- 22:34and promising to blast them on sight Von
- 22:36would even reflect on a conversation
- 22:38that he had had with t Roy saying that
- 22:40they can't die soon because they know
- 22:41they're going to hell for all the bad
- 22:43things they had done in the streets Von
- 22:45would even openly tweet about shooting
- 22:47up dunar high school around this time
- 22:49and unsurprisingly he would continue to
- 22:51be in the eyes of the law being picked
- 22:52up in October for battery but little did
- 22:55the police know just how serious of
- 22:56Von's crimes were about to get in the
- 22:58coming weeks on the 13th of October 2012
- 23:01Von tweeted that he is about to pop
- 23:02these pills and spazz out on somebody
- 23:05expressing frustration that he hasn't
- 23:07taken anybody down for a while and
- 23:08saying that he's getting dry perhaps a
- 23:10tweet with a double meaning that could
- 23:12refer to sex or murder that very same
- 23:14day Von would tweet that his Ops party
- 23:16tonight is getting cancelled later Von
- 23:19is tweeting asking for somebody to come
- 23:20and get him and 30 minutes later Von
- 23:23tweets simply ha followed by 45 Glock me
- 23:27that very night of October the 13th 2012
- 23:30Modell that same teen who had found the
- 23:32body of his cousin King doc dead just 6
- 23:34months before would be walking down the
- 23:35street with another one of his cousins
- 23:37on their way to meet a girl when just
- 23:39before 9:30 p.m. somebody approached
- 23:41them on foot opening fire Modell would
- 23:43be shot in the chest and later
- 23:44pronounced dead in hospital no one was
- 23:46ever charged with this murder or
- 23:47attempted murder but many years later
- 23:49police documents would be released
- 23:51revealing that King Von himself was
- 23:53positively identified by a witness as
- 23:55the shooter with t Roy apparently at the
- 23:57scene too this meant that King Von was
- 23:58the prime suspect in the murder and not
- 24:00only that but King Von would tweet
- 24:02immediately after the killing now it's
- 24:04important to remember that Twitter time
- 24:06stamps run on Universal Coordinated Time
- 24:08that's the same as UK time and that's
- 24:10where I'm reading these tweets from
- 24:12which is 6 hours ahead of Chicago time
- 24:14so for me to get the exact time of a
- 24:16tweet that was made by King vaugh or Ki
- 24:18or somebody else in Chicago I have to
- 24:19take the time that it shows on Twitter
- 24:21and minor 6 I'm telling you this because
- 24:23Modell was shot around 9:30 p.m. that
- 24:26means that King Von tweeted who died
- 24:28about 17 minutes after the murder of
- 24:31Modell took place and that tweet was
- 24:33followed by yet another one reading it's
- 24:35not safe around our way which came less
- 24:37than an hour after the shooting and
- 24:39Von's who died tweet would provoke
- 24:41responses from somebody who even knew
- 24:42Modell with Von saying that the dead
- 24:44person is somebody that they know in
- 24:46addition to that exchange the female
- 24:48shooter from tuille Ki would end up
- 24:50getting arrested not long after this for
- 24:52apparently shooting indiscriminately
- 24:54into oblock hoping to kill anybody in
- 24:56retaliation for Modell of this seemed to
- 24:58bother King Von however as he clearly
- 25:00got a lot of satisfaction out of having
- 25:02seemingly killed again the day after the
- 25:04murder of Modell Von would tweet that
- 25:06him and T Roy have a problem and that
- 25:08they can't stop doing their thingy thing
- 25:10Von would tweet that the streets are in
- 25:11trouble when he's coming and he would
- 25:13brush off the cops attempts to arrest
- 25:15him in fact only 2 days after the
- 25:16killing he would get into an argument
- 25:18with a well-known tuille GD known as woi
- 25:21on Twitter woi had inferred that he had
- 25:23been out looking to catch V that day
- 25:25asking him where they were at with Von
- 25:27leaving a heartless reply saying that he
- 25:29was getting t-shirts made for Modell's
- 25:31funeral unsurprisingly Von would find
- 25:33himself on the radar of the police
- 25:34following the murder of Modell getting
- 25:36picked up for unlawful possession of a
- 25:37firearm and being questioned in October
- 25:392012 with Von later tweeting that the
- 25:41cops grabbed him and warned him to be
- 25:43careful apparently the cops even told V
- 25:45that when they question their Ops they
- 25:47all talk about him and Troy suggesting
- 25:49that their names are feared in the
- 25:51streets Von would even tweet after that
- 25:53that his own mother was beginning to
- 25:54hear the rumors about his violent
- 25:56behavior in the streets and she was
- 25:57trying to put him on punishment but Von
- 25:59wasn't deterred and he kept using
- 26:00Twitter to increase his reputation as a
- 26:02killer the following month Von would be
- 26:04sending unprovoked Twitter apps at woi
- 26:06asking if he knew who killed Modell
- 26:08provoking responses from numerous Ops
- 26:10who wanted to see Von dead including woi
- 26:13and Ki and to me this is where we see
- 26:15King Von really beginning to take
- 26:16pleasure in killing for years to come he
- 26:19would tweet mocking Modell saying it's
- 26:20messed up what happened to him and that
- 26:22he's a straight sucker it's this sort of
- 26:24behavior where I believe that Von
- 26:26crosses the line from a normal
- 26:27gangbanger killing to survive to a
- 26:29full-blown serial killer who is taking
- 26:31the lives of others systemically for his
- 26:32own personal gratification at this point
- 26:34Von has already satisfied the conditions
- 26:36of being a serial killer having
- 26:38allegedly killed more than three people
- 26:40in different locations with large
- 26:42periods of time in between the killings
- 26:43and his tweets Express a clear tendency
- 26:46to take pleasure in killing and a desire
- 26:48to show the world what he's doing in a
- 26:50way King Von's purpose in life at this
- 26:51point in time wasn't just revenge and
- 26:54murder for Spore it was about doing
- 26:55these crimes and giving the world clues
- 26:57about what he had done and as The Story
- 26:59Goes On you'll see King Von constantly
- 27:01hint towards his crimes on social media
- 27:03in his music and even on television but
- 27:05now the patent had emerged and Von
- 27:07clearly had a thirst for blood he was
- 27:09becoming a talented shooter and not
- 27:11facing any consequences for these crimes
- 27:13and so in the coming months Von would be
- 27:15rumored to have been connected to at
- 27:17least three more murders with the police
- 27:19only catching up to him when it was too
- 27:23late in late 2012 Von was earning a
- 27:26reputation as a feared shooter in the
- 27:27chic go gang wars something he would be
- 27:29more than happy to broadcast to the
- 27:31world Von would be seen in Clips posted
- 27:33to social media sliding in cars with his
- 27:35partner in crime Troy and others rowing
- 27:37up gang signs and saying that they're
- 27:39smoking Tuka
- 27:42yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
- 27:47[Music]
- 27:49yeah both of
- 27:51the and he'd be seen with his boys
- 27:53mobbing deep in trap houses
- 28:10and Von would even broadcast his
- 28:11activities rolling with the gang to the
- 28:13local store Von was surprisingly open
- 28:15about his gangbanging life on social
- 28:17media and he would be particularly
- 28:18active on Twitter during these violent
- 28:21months he would tweet openly that he was
- 28:22planning to shoot at random people in
- 28:24traffic he would tweet that he is stlk
- 28:26or a St Lawrence killer and
- 28:28interestingly around these times on the
- 28:3018th of October 2012 oblock native Chief
- 28:33Keith would release his hit song Love
- 28:35Sosa a legendary Chicago drill Anthem
- 28:37with lyrics about killing people for
- 28:39disrespecting oblock at this point in
- 28:412012 Chief Keef had become a global rap
- 28:43star off the back of his single I don't
- 28:45like which was given an All-Star Remix
- 28:47by Kanye West and ended up landing at
- 28:49number 73 on the Billboard charts that
- 28:51song Had lyrics about the gang wars in
- 28:53Chicago and lives being lost and chief
- 28:55ke's music was becoming legendary for
- 28:57painting a picture of reality on
- 28:59Chicago's most dangerous block of course
- 29:01who could forget Chief Keefe's classic
- 29:03Anthem 3 hunter a song with lines all
- 29:05about the young ons on his block gunning
- 29:07people down and a track that made it
- 29:08famous to diss Tuka with black disciple
- 29:11rappers beginning a trend of saying that
- 29:12they're smoking on Tuka a sign of
- 29:14disrespect to Shawn Dale Gregory who had
- 29:16been killed in 2011 now King Von himself
- 29:19had an interesting relationship with
- 29:20Chief Keef's music Von would tweet that
- 29:22him and T Roy are the real life people
- 29:25who these rappers are making their songs
- 29:26about Von seemed proud of his career as
- 29:29a real gangster the true story behind
- 29:31Chicago drill music in fact it seemed
- 29:33from his tweets that he took great pride
- 29:35in this he would regularly quote lyrics
- 29:37from drill songs by Chief Keef and
- 29:39others and he would continue with tweets
- 29:40expressing his intentions to shoot up
- 29:42the Ops in one he says he just got a new
- 29:45gun and can't wait to use it and he even
- 29:47claimed in one tweet to have shot a
- 29:48Woman by mistake trying to shoot at a
- 29:50man ending the Tweet saying I don't care
- 29:53same thing to me it seems that Von
- 29:55really had to tweet pretty much any
- 29:57Street activity that he was involved in
- 29:58during this time he would tweet that he
- 30:00hasn't touched or seen a revolver in a
- 30:02while and on October the 29th Von would
- 30:04tweet saying that he was avoiding T-Roy
- 30:06because he was winning presumably
- 30:08referring to Troy having a superior kill
- 30:10counter so Von would tweet literally
- 30:12saying that he was trying to catch up
- 30:14with t Roy's kill counter saying give me
- 30:16until Friday and just the day after this
- 30:18tweet he would find what he was looking
- 30:19for on October the 30th Von would tweet
- 30:22that it's his main man T Roy's birthday
- 30:24and later that day Von tweeted that he
- 30:26was drilling like OD at 84 5 a.m. Von
- 30:29tweeted check the stats a reference to
- 30:31who has the most bodies in the ongoing
- 30:33gang war according to the police less
- 30:35than 30 minutes after this tweet was
- 30:36made at around 9:13 a.m. P5 AKA crack
- 30:40real named Derek Johnson would be shot
- 30:42multiple times in the 6200 Block of
- 30:45South Everhart Avenue the 23-year-old
- 30:47was rushed to the hospital but
- 30:48pronounced dead at 9:54 a.m. the
- 30:51incident report would record the time of
- 30:52the shooting as 9:13 a.m. in the Chicago
- 30:55time zone which on Twitter for me would
- 30:57display is 3:13 p.m. that means that
- 31:00just 3 minutes before the recorded time
- 31:02of the shooting Von tweeted laughing my
- 31:04ass off then at 9913 the time that the
- 31:07police estimated the shooting took place
- 31:09Von tweets his 45 makes his ass do 40
- 31:12flips and then only a few hours after
- 31:15this early morning murder just afternoon
- 31:17Von would tweet the early bird catches
- 31:19the worm and then going on to tweet
- 31:21about Ops making the news saying that he
- 31:23does his thingy thing for real saying
- 31:25that he erases people like he drew them
- 31:27and tweeting that his Ops aren't trying
- 31:29to win like he is and saying that he is
- 31:31doing this for OD patoon sheroid and
- 31:34white white Von would claimed to be
- 31:35finding a lot of things funny that
- 31:37evening once again tweeting numerous
- 31:39times that his 40 made someone do 40
- 31:41flips as the days went by Von's tweets
- 31:44would get even more bold just the day
- 31:46after the murder he would tweet
- 31:47pondering whether he was messed up in
- 31:49the head and indicating that he thinks
- 31:51he's gone crazy things would get even
- 31:52more incriminating just 2 days later
- 31:54when Von put out a tweet reading damn
- 31:57Modell got killed in October and crack
- 31:59who's going to get killed in November
- 32:01stay tuned and he would tweet rip crack
- 32:04and Modell as well as tweeting asking
- 32:06when the funeral is Von would even reply
- 32:08to KI and woi who tweeted each other
- 32:10about going to a funeral with Von saying
- 32:12that he was on his way too and even
- 32:14offering them a ride Von also tweeted at
- 32:16woi asking if he knows who made Modell
- 32:18world or crack crew another reference to
- 32:21crew renaming themselves after a fallen
- 32:23member who's passed away now at this
- 32:24point V is establishing a clear pattern
- 32:27getting the Lo of his targets shooting
- 32:29them dead and then celebrating publicly
- 32:31on Twitter and within only a few weeks
- 32:33of the P5 incident yet another
- 32:35high-profile murder would take place
- 32:36with Von's involvement having been
- 32:38debatable but his Twitter account
- 32:40telling a very different
- 32:45story in November 2012 King Von would be
- 32:48tweeting openly about killing he'd say
- 32:51that he was the go-to guy for hits in
- 32:53his area he'd also say that he was the
- 32:55captain of the drill team tweeting about
- 32:57murder and homicide saying that he's a
- 32:59hitter by himself and that the whole of
- 33:01oblock are coming for their Ops he would
- 33:03even tweet that he was sacrificing
- 33:05people as well as bizarre tweets about
- 33:07how much he liked serial something that
- 33:09I personally believe was a coded message
- 33:11indicating that V was beginning to see
- 33:13himself as a serial killer something
- 33:15that he would continue to do throughout
- 33:16his career from here Von would continue
- 33:18tweeting about wanting to shoot his Ops
- 33:20in the face and get up close and
- 33:22personal alluding to committing murder
- 33:24and tweeting that he had big balls and
- 33:26does things that other people would only
- 33:27dream of doing King Von would boldly
- 33:29tweet that he will never get convicted
- 33:30of a murder saying that he would never
- 33:32set himself up to go down for a body he
- 33:34would mock his Ops saying some make it
- 33:36out alive and some make it onto the news
- 33:38and die also during this time Von would
- 33:40even react to Barack Obama winning the
- 33:422012 election something ironic
- 33:44considering the fact that Michelle Obama
- 33:46apparently also hailed from oblock but
- 33:48even in celebrating this Monumental news
- 33:50Von would also tweet that a black
- 33:51president with ties to his City simply
- 33:54wouldn't stop him from killing his Ops
- 33:55on November the 7th 2012 vom tweet about
- 33:58bodies dropping and beating the case
- 34:00later that evening he would tweet that
- 34:01he was outs sliding with t Roy who he
- 34:04himself would also tweet saying that
- 34:05he's about to go and get his gun before
- 34:07replying to KI who had just tweeted a
- 34:09list of a bunch of names of people
- 34:11associated with oblock who had been
- 34:13killed with t Roy retaliating providing
- 34:15his own list of people from Ki Hood who
- 34:18they had apparently killed as well as
- 34:19tweeting # bang just after midnight then
- 34:22the following morning the news would
- 34:24report on the shooting of a 17-year-old
- 34:26by the name of Rodney Stewart AKA boss
- 34:28tril boss tril had been found with a
- 34:30gunshot wound to the head around 6:50
- 34:32a.m. and was immediately rushed to
- 34:34hospital and he would even remain alive
- 34:36for several hours during which time he
- 34:37was visited by friends from the
- 34:39neighborhood like FBG cash but while
- 34:41boss tril was in the hospital fighting
- 34:43for his life Von and Troy would be
- 34:45tweeting Troy tweeted Man Down only
- 34:47hours after the body was discovered with
- 34:49Von tweeting # destruggle prompting TR
- 34:52Roy to infer that Von was behaving like
- 34:54the police Von would follow up on this
- 34:56tweet saying that people aren't dying on
- 34:58time and T Roy would also tweet
- 34:59mockingly saying no tril stay alive then
- 35:03in since deleted tweets allegedly by
- 35:05King vau he would suggest that he had
- 35:06actually spent the day trying to get KI
- 35:08on the phone however boss tril would be
- 35:10pronounced dead that night at 11:30 p.m.
- 35:13on the 8th of November 2012 and the
- 35:15following day King Von would take to
- 35:16Twitter once again to mock boss tril and
- 35:19his Ops he would tweet that STL doesn't
- 35:21stand for St Lawrence but instead for
- 35:23steady taking El's another tweet would
- 35:25drop with King Von telling people don't
- 35:27worry about who killed who just be glad
- 35:29that you didn't get killed and shut up
- 35:31this was followed by another tweet aimed
- 35:32at boss Trail saying LOL you ain't a
- 35:34boss to me many theories suggested that
- 35:36Troy and Von and possibly others were
- 35:38involved in this murder some have said
- 35:40that it was T Roy others have said that
- 35:42it's V or potentially even the two of
- 35:44them together but it is worth mentioning
- 35:45that there's an alternative theory that
- 35:47boss tril was actually murdered by
- 35:48someone completely unrelated to this
- 35:50Feud who was apparently trying to
- 35:51retrieve a gun that had been taken from
- 35:53him but regardless of who was
- 35:54responsible Von and Troy were certainly
- 35:57happy to see boss Trail gone and they
- 35:58would continue to tweet boldly about it
- 36:00publicly their Ops on Twitter would warn
- 36:02T Roy over the disrespect but for King
- 36:04vau tweeting about the murders going on
- 36:06in the streets was a must Von would post
- 36:08saying that the Ops are dying frequently
- 36:10and that he doesn't plan on slowing down
- 36:11he would say that he will kill an OP
- 36:13anywhere and once again reference cereal
- 36:16saying that he eats cereal after
- 36:17shooting people another hint in the
- 36:19ongoing joke that Von is indeed becoming
- 36:22a serial killer Von would even mock the
- 36:24Ops for having funerals he simply didn't
- 36:26care what anybody thought it seemed that
- 36:28Von was hellbent on killing his enemies
- 36:30and he would be hellbent on tweeting
- 36:32every single time something negative
- 36:34occurred in the streets however Von's
- 36:35days would be numbered and following the
- 36:37next hit that he was implicated in he
- 36:38would tweet once again perhaps a little
- 36:40too recklessly this time finding himself
- 36:42behind bars for over a
- 36:49year after the deaths of Modell P5 and
- 36:52boss Trail you would think that King Von
- 36:54would have kept a low profile but no he
- 36:56would continue to tweet suspiciously
- 36:58while the killing continued however when
- 36:59the next person lost their life King
- 37:01Von's tweets would go to a whole another
- 37:03level of self-incrimination and he would
- 37:04actually find himself on the wrong side
- 37:06of the law on the 19th of November 2012
- 37:0832-year-old man named James Holan AKA
- 37:11Lil James will be standing on his porch
- 37:13on the 6,000 block of South Michigan
- 37:15Avenue around 8:20 p.m. at this point
- 37:17four people would approach his property
- 37:19opening fire shooting him in both the
- 37:21arm and chest with him being pronounced
- 37:23dead in hospital less than an hour later
- 37:25only 23 minutes after this murder Von
- 37:28would tweet man not on anything followed
- 37:30by another tweet reading clown ass Von
- 37:33was mocking somebody but we didn't know
- 37:34who or what for meanwhile T Roy would
- 37:37put out a tweet asking if somebody got
- 37:38shot yesterday and then only 6 hours
- 37:41after the shooting Von would tweet that
- 37:43he kills GDs often and then in another
- 37:46rare deleted tweet that somebody else
- 37:48from oblock quote tweeted just 21
- 37:50minutes later Von would apparently brag
- 37:52that he has killed five GDs and shot 10
- 37:55with a later news article even
- 37:57confirming that James Holman the man who
- 37:58was killed most recently was indeed a
- 38:00Gangster Disciple furthermore a police
- 38:03report on the Lil James murder would
- 38:04describe the shooter's height and build
- 38:06which apparently matched V's description
- 38:08now Von tweeting that he had killed five
- 38:11GDs after the death of Lil James is
- 38:13particularly interesting because there's
- 38:14always been a lot of speculation on
- 38:16exactly how many people Von had killed
- 38:18and who specifically he was responsible
- 38:20for killing and at this point in time
- 38:22Von had been associated with six murders
- 38:24in total so if Von himself is apparently
- 38:26confessing that he killed five people at
- 38:28this point then it's likely that just
- 38:30one of these murders he had nothing to
- 38:32do with from here Von would continued to
- 38:33tweet throughout the day saying things
- 38:35like dissing him will get your people
- 38:37killed and another asking openly who
- 38:39made crack block another reference to
- 38:41the murder of crack or P5 unsurprisingly
- 38:44the authorities would catch up with Von
- 38:46just 3 days after the murder of Lil
- 38:48James perhaps they'd read his tweets
- 38:50Von's capture would be confirmed by a
- 38:52tweet from his sister from his own
- 38:53Twitter account saying that he would be
- 38:55in jail for Thanksgiving with Von's
- 38:56charges later being revealed as unlawful
- 38:58possession of a firearm numerous mug
- 39:00shots of Von would later circulate
- 39:01online and Von would end up in jail for
- 39:03over a year for a period spanning from
- 39:05November 2012 to February 2014 and in
- 39:08the meantime his mother sister and
- 39:10friends would all tweet from his Twitter
- 39:12account calling for Von's freedom and
- 39:13keeping his name alive however Von's
- 39:15sister would also tweet that Von told
- 39:17her that when he gets out of jail he's
- 39:19just planning on killing more people and
- 39:21ultimately none of the more serious
- 39:22charges would even stick to V and he
- 39:24would eventually end up being released
- 39:25back onto the streets of oblock where he
- 39:27would as expected immediately get back
- 39:29to doing what he loved Drilling and then
- 39:32tweeting about
- 39:35it King Von's sister would announce from
- 39:38his Twitter account on February the 11th
- 39:402014 that he would be home from jail
- 39:42tomorrow with footage of Von cutting off
- 39:44his ankle monitor and throwing up gang
- 39:45signs circulating online after his
- 39:47release when he got back out he would be
- 39:49back on the streets and involving
- 39:50himself in gang politics once again his
- 39:52first tweet out was dissing The Ops of
- 39:54course he would also openly wonder where
- 39:56Troy went as apparently his partner in
- 39:58crime had ended up in jail himself
- 40:00during this time also upon his release
- 40:02Von would also tweet at famous names in
- 40:04the Chicago drill scene like boss top
- 40:06Lil Reese Chief Keef eeday Rondo number
- 40:08n and cppo he would then go on to diss
- 40:10two people that he allegedly killed
- 40:12Modell and crack but at least initially
- 40:14it didn't appear that Von was able to
- 40:16commit any more acts of violence because
- 40:17apparently following his release he
- 40:19would wind up on house arrest for a
- 40:21short period but that didn't stop him
- 40:22from posting pictures of himself at home
- 40:25dissing Tuka with a gun sticking out of
- 40:27his place Pocket pictures of Von with
- 40:28famous BD hitters like T Roy and D Rose
- 40:31would circulate around this time with
- 40:32the likes of Chief Keith even reposting
- 40:34them as a sign of respect for the most
- 40:36feared local Shooters with Von also
- 40:38sharing pictures of his crew to Twitter
- 40:40openly with the caption simply reading
- 40:42gang members Von would also tweet about
- 40:44it being a very scary year for the ox
- 40:47even tweeting disrespectful collages
- 40:49featuring photographs of Rivals who had
- 40:51been killed recently Von didn't care one
- 40:53bit what he was posting on Twitter and
- 40:55honestly it didn't seem like the police
- 40:57sced either Von tweeted openly that he
- 40:59will kill someone on St Lawrence
- 41:01promising to shoot Ops in the face and
- 41:03kill them fast dropping mocking tweets
- 41:05about people he had allegedly killed
- 41:07like Modell he would pledge to drop even
- 41:09more bodies even tweeting that he was
- 41:11shooting as soon as he got off house
- 41:13arrest and tweeting that he just got a
- 41:15new gun and he wanted to do a driveby
- 41:17with it now on March the 25th 2014 GD
- 41:20rapper Lil Mark associated with a crew
- 41:22called 051 would drop a song called no
- 41:24competition this would be a remix of
- 41:26black disciple Rapp Lil Durk and Lil
- 41:28Reese's 2013 Song competition Lil mark
- 41:31would essentially use Lil durk's beat to
- 41:33diss him and his OTF crew from lamron
- 41:35but it wasn't just Dirk that was getting
- 41:36dissed Lil mark would diss numerous
- 41:38people associated with the Black
- 41:40Disciples including people from both
- 41:41oblock and an Affiliated crew of BDS
- 41:44known as 600 Lil Mark song Would mock OD
- 41:47Perry and J Money and see him rapping
- 41:49openly that he is a black disciple
- 41:51killer as well as proudly repping his
- 41:53affiliations to his gang Set 051 Young
- 41:55Money this song made Lil Mark a huge
- 41:57Target for both oblock and 600 and
- 41:59around this period King Von would
- 42:01frequently tweet that he was in traffic
- 42:03riding around the city armed and looking
- 42:05for Ops to kill on March the 28th 2014
- 42:08Von would tweet that he was in traffic
- 42:10tagging D Rose an Infamous shooter from
- 42:12the oock Affiliated set 600 with D Rose
- 42:15himself tweeting that the cops hate to
- 42:17see Von T Roy and him Al together Von
- 42:20would tweet gunshot emojis around 10:
- 42:21a.m. on the 28th of March 2014 and only
- 42:24a few hours later that very same day
- 42:26around 1 30 p.m. it's believed that a
- 42:28large group of gang members were riding
- 42:30around in a silver minivan with Florida
- 42:32license plates most likely the stolen
- 42:34car meanwhile a 20-year-old Mark
- 42:36Campbell AKA Lil Mark was at a bus stop
- 42:39on the 300 block of East 51st Stree it's
- 42:42believed that that minivan pulled up and
- 42:44a masked man jumped out shooting little
- 42:45Mark in the head with Mark ultimately
- 42:47being pronounced dead at the scene only
- 42:49minutes later at 1:41 p.m. and that
- 42:51minivan connected to the shooting being
- 42:53found in Flames at 6:30 p.m. that very
- 42:56night it's widely believed that D Rose
- 42:57was the shooter with King Von being
- 42:59present for this murder D Rose even
- 43:01posted a clip to social media of him and
- 43:03his friends returning to the scene of
- 43:05the crime and filming where King Von can
- 43:07allegedly be heard in the background of
- 43:08the car it's a took off 5 first damn
- 43:12body
- 43:21down down 5 game D Rose would tweet call
- 43:25him never heard of him with with a
- 43:27laughing face just 36 minutes after the
- 43:29killing king Von would tweet just 42
- 43:31minutes after the shooting Die Why with
- 43:34a bunch of laughing faces with this
- 43:35being a sign of disrespect to Lil Mark's
- 43:37gang 051 Young Money that tweet Was Then
- 43:40followed by Von saying 051 better keep
- 43:42their head up with a bunch of laughing
- 43:44emojis then he says he lives for this F
- 43:46the ox and just in case there was any
- 43:48doubt about King Von being present for
- 43:50that murder he would also reply to
- 43:51somebody on Twitter discussing Lil mark
- 43:53saying outright he just saw the murder
- 43:56with King Von going on to tweet at other
- 43:57oblock Affiliates that they would be
- 43:59celebrating that night Von was speaking
- 44:01so recklessly on Twitter his sister
- 44:03would even tell him to go in the house
- 44:05with a defiant Von replying to her with
- 44:07gunshot and Demon emojis then tweeting
- 44:09that Lil Mark's death was getting him
- 44:11attention from women even going as far
- 44:13to say that Lil Mark's pregnant
- 44:14girlfriend might have cheated on him
- 44:16followed by another tweet a few days
- 44:17later where Von claimed that he leaves
- 44:19people dead at the bus stop just like
- 44:21Tuka a tweet that's even more
- 44:23disrespectful when you learn that Lil
- 44:25Mark was actually tka's older brother D
- 44:27Rose would also tweet the day after the
- 44:29murder saying you ain't got to ask who
- 44:31shot him indicating that he was indeed
- 44:33the shooter of Lil Mark as well as
- 44:34proudly saying that he was smoking on
- 44:36Marco but Von and D Rose weren't the
- 44:38only ones celebrating the death of Lil
- 44:39mark because Lil duk the original
- 44:41subject of Lil Mark's this song no
- 44:43competition released just 3 days before
- 44:45he was killed would end up making a trip
- 44:48to the very bus stop where Mark was
- 44:49gunned down with Dirk telling his
- 44:51followers that this was a very special
- 44:53place hey this this hey hey hey this B
- 44:56right here though this this a real
- 44:57famous place you he this a real famous
- 44:59place B hey it's bus stop that's a real
- 45:01famous place I ain't going Li because of
- 45:03all of the attention from rappers about
- 45:04this incident Lil Mark's death became
- 45:06news beyond the local Chicago papers
- 45:08with this killing taking place during
- 45:10the Heyday of DJ academics war and shyra
- 45:12Series where academics would report
- 45:14satirically on the Chicago drill scene
- 45:16and the shocking crimes going on within
- 45:18it King Von himself would even go on to
- 45:20rap about killing people at bus stops
- 45:22many years later as well as on the song
- 45:24exposing me where he says that he has
- 45:25smoking Lil mark and Tuka and l Durk
- 45:28would go on to do the same thing
- 45:29wrapping in the December 2014 track war
- 45:32with eday 600 also saying that he is
- 45:34smoking Lil Mark and Tuka now it's never
- 45:36been definitively confirmed who killed
- 45:38Lil Mark but it's widely believed that
- 45:40the two most likely hitters are D Rose
- 45:43or King Von but whether or not King Von
- 45:44actually did it he clearly got a lot of
- 45:46gratification from just witnessing this
- 45:48murder further fueling this strange
- 45:50blood lust that he was cultivating
- 45:52around this time if he wasn't the one
- 45:53killing then he would at least want a
- 45:55front row seat and an opportunity to
- 45:57tweet about it however it would be the
- 45:58next murder that would seemingly be
- 46:00Von's most proud moment in the streets
- 46:02because he would end up finally catching
- 46:04somebody who he had wanted to get for
- 46:06years leaving Clues on Twitter all the
- 46:08way up to the killing and then in an
- 46:10insanely twisted turn Not only would V
- 46:12get away with the murder but he would go
- 46:14on to appear in a documentary interview
- 46:16about the victim without anybody even
- 46:18working out that the killer that they
- 46:19were looking for was sitting right in
- 46:21front of the
- 46:25camera 17-year-old Gangster Disciple
- 46:28jakai rabans AKA Ki was a legendary
- 46:31figure in Chicago gang history with the
- 46:33Chicago Sun Times describing her in a
- 46:35prominent feature as a prolific female
- 46:38assassin in the Chicago gang war Ki has
- 46:40been described as the real life Snoop
- 46:42from The Wire a reference to the
- 46:43masculine female killer from HBO's crime
- 46:46drama Ki herself had been close with
- 46:48Tuka growing up and her rumored
- 46:50involvement in the killing of OD Perry
- 46:51in retaliation would make her Feud with
- 46:53oblock deeply personal no doubt King Von
- 46:56was a obsessed with Ki Von and Ki would
- 46:58have extensive back and forths on
- 47:00Twitter with it being unclear whether he
- 47:02was trying to date her or kill her their
- 47:04first interaction occurred on September
- 47:06the 25th 2012 when Von would tweet
- 47:08claiming to have beaten up an OP girl on
- 47:10the train with Ki replying to this
- 47:12saying their arm ear and face were
- 47:14injured but she's not bothered because
- 47:16her gun will put a hole in her Ops faces
- 47:18with a tweet the following day
- 47:20indicating that she had perhaps shot at
- 47:22V or somebody that he notes they would
- 47:24go on to have her back and forth with
- 47:25Von asking Ki if she's a gangster or a
- 47:28[ __ ] with Ki indicating that she is
- 47:30indeed a real gangster Von would go on
- 47:33to reply to her post shouting out her
- 47:34gang asking her why he never sees her
- 47:36when he spins the block with Ki replying
- 47:38that Von can die just like white white
- 47:40with Von saying she better kill him
- 47:42because he will kill her and she doesn't
- 47:44have the good aim like he does that same
- 47:46day Ki would tell her followers to
- 47:48retweet if they think she looks good
- 47:50King Von retweeted it Ki would tweet
- 47:52saying that she'd beaten up someone from
- 47:53oock and that they should go and tell V
- 47:55that she is tough this would prompt a
- 47:57reply from Von where he would say he can
- 47:58tell that she's tough and jokingly
- 48:00asking her if she's looking for a
- 48:02boyfriend as well as expressing doubt
- 48:04that she had even beat up his friend
- 48:05with her replying saying she'd caught an
- 48:07oblock member on the train who had
- 48:09denied being from there when beaten up
- 48:10with King Von's sister chiming in
- 48:12claiming to have been there too and Ki
- 48:14saying that her victim didn't even punch
- 48:16her back all this provoked a sarcastic
- 48:18reply from Von where he said that he
- 48:20thinks he was falling in love with this
- 48:21fighting female Von would later post
- 48:23treats where he said that he's going to
- 48:24treat her right if she becomes his wife
- 48:27and later beginning to regularly refer
- 48:28to her as wifey when Ki replied to Von
- 48:31Von would say that he has her on his
- 48:32mind a lot and that he misses her even
- 48:34telling his sister that he wanted to
- 48:36marry Ki now many years later somebody
- 48:39on forchan would claim to have hacked
- 48:40ki's private DMS on Twitter and
- 48:42revealing that around this time Von had
- 48:44dm'd Ki asking her if she wanted to hook
- 48:47up or more specifically saying he wants
- 48:49to nail her she would reply saying she's
- 48:51not interested to which Von replies when
- 48:53all of this is over he will have her
- 48:55more alleged tweets see Ki asking Von
- 48:58straight up if oock are plotting to kill
- 49:00her to which Von replies he's not going
- 49:02to lie there are people looking to kill
- 49:04her but Von would say he doesn't think
- 49:06he can kill her because he thinks she
- 49:07seems cool as hell even having the nerve
- 49:09to ask her when she's going to stop gang
- 49:11banging Ki would reply saying she's not
- 49:13going to stop calling King Von a goofy
- 49:15and asking him when he's going to stop
- 49:17Von would laugh and tell her that he's
- 49:18gang banging until he dies and that he
- 49:20will never lose or quit with Ki
- 49:23ultimately agreeing with this and saying
- 49:25that she's planning the same thing
- 49:26before mocking Von saying he must feel
- 49:28really threatened by her and questioning
- 49:30if he really thinks they can kill her
- 49:32Von replies saying that they're trying
- 49:33to kill anyone they're not just
- 49:35desperate for her specifically before
- 49:37revealing that he had apparently had his
- 49:38gun on him when he beat her up on the
- 49:40train but saying he didn't kill her
- 49:42because the police were there along with
- 49:43a woman from his block with Von saying
- 49:45that if he really wanted to kill her he
- 49:47would have took his chances and shot her
- 49:48in the train or the street in response
- 49:50to this Ki would reply come and get it
- 49:53because she's ready to go to war with
- 49:54anyone with Von clapping back
- 49:56questioning why she takes things so
- 49:57seriously after this alleged Private
- 49:59Exchange Von would reply to a public
- 50:01tweet of hers dissing OD Perry and
- 50:03reminding her that he beat her up even
- 50:05saying that he wishes he'd spat on her
- 50:07afterwards now Von began to use Ki
- 50:09pretty much for entertainment beefing
- 50:11her on Twitter whenever he was bored but
- 50:12Ki would be looking for Von in real life
- 50:14however Von would tweet that he has his
- 50:16Ops scared at the corner store and Ki
- 50:18would reply saying that she's on the way
- 50:20looking for him also tweeting asking
- 50:22where he is with Von replying
- 50:24sarcastically telling her to be safe in
- 50:26the streets more alleged leaked DMS
- 50:28between Ki and Von would merge with Ki
- 50:30asking V where he was with the two of
- 50:32them seemingly arranging a shootout with
- 50:34Ki even asking if T Roy can come too Ki
- 50:37later claimed to have walked through
- 50:38oblock and not seen a soul with Von
- 50:40saying that they're too busy to have a
- 50:41shootout right now Von would later
- 50:43allegedly DM Ki telling her to call him
- 50:46when she's ready to put a dress on and
- 50:47let her hair down they'd keep going back
- 50:49and forth on Twitter publicly building
- 50:51up this insane public history Ki tweeted
- 50:53that she was going to the store and Von
- 50:55would warn her not to Von would tweet
- 50:56reminding her that he had beaten her up
- 50:58on the train with her saying that he's
- 51:00been hiding ever since Von would clap
- 51:02back asking when she's coming back to
- 51:03his block for a day and Ki would then
- 51:05remind Von of all the times that people
- 51:07from her side had beaten him up other
- 51:09oblock members would tweet their
- 51:10intentions to kill Ki too and she would
- 51:13tweet that she wants to see King Von
- 51:14face to face Von would reply she really
- 51:17doesn't one tweet would see Von say that
- 51:19he'd spent all day trying to get KI on
- 51:21the phone and that her voice sounded
- 51:22sexy even after Von went to jail in 2013
- 51:25Von's sister would tweet at KI saying
- 51:27that Von had asked her to go and visit
- 51:29him in jail with Von's sister later
- 51:31suggesting that she had even had a fist
- 51:33fight with Ki and saying that she will
- 51:35see her on 63rd perhaps for another
- 51:37fight when Von was released from jail in
- 51:392014 he would tweet at KI and ask if she
- 51:41missed him with her replying asking when
- 51:44they're meeting up and adding four gun
- 51:45Emojis with Von expressing
- 51:47disappointment that Ki didn't come and
- 51:49see him in jail like he'd asked now bear
- 51:51in mind tweeting at KI was one of the
- 51:53first things that Von did upon getting
- 51:55out of jail he tweeted her twice before
- 51:57he had tweeted at Chief Keef or any of
- 51:59his actual friends from oblock he was
- 52:01obsessed but Ki would continue to mock
- 52:03Von asking him how it felt for his
- 52:05friends to die while he was in jail even
- 52:07retweeting Von's own tweet saying rest
- 52:10in peace J Money and going on to insult
- 52:12him in a tweet of her own this was a
- 52:13reference to Von's friend J money from
- 52:15oblock who had been killed in September
- 52:172013 whilst he was in jail with Von
- 52:19retaliating saying Rest in Piss to kraak
- 52:22and Modell with Von even later tweeting
- 52:24that he can't be mad at women unless
- 52:26they're off Ops in which case they can
- 52:28die and another tweet saying how
- 52:30desperate he was to catch a female op
- 52:32Von and Ki would tweet at each other
- 52:33much less in 2014 perhaps because Von
- 52:36was looking to reduce the paper trail
- 52:37leading to him if Ki wound up debt but
- 52:40in the days following Little Mark's
- 52:41death in April 2014 Von would release
- 52:44some Brazen tweets on the 1st of April
- 52:46he would tell a friend that he would
- 52:47never start rapping and that he prefers
- 52:49killing Ops and tweeting that he had
- 52:51bodies on his gun on the 6th of April Ki
- 52:54would tweet saying people won't get the
- 52:56picture until you put them in the frame
- 52:58along with a gun emoji that same day Von
- 53:00would tweet saying if you're not where
- 53:02I'm from you will get killed that was
- 53:04followed the next day by Von tweeting
- 53:05that he was always looking for a woman
- 53:07and he can't find her and saying he will
- 53:09stop looking and let her look for him he
- 53:11would then go on to tweet on the 10th of
- 53:13April that there's some women he would
- 53:14do anything for telling her to just hit
- 53:16his line that would be followed by
- 53:18another tweet saying if a girl leaves
- 53:20him then she's leaving the best with it
- 53:22unclear if he's talking about her
- 53:23leaving him or her leaving this Earth
- 53:26that was by more tweets where Von would
- 53:28say if a girl is with the Ops then she's
- 53:30getting shot and that he's not playing
- 53:32with op girls this summer and they
- 53:33should watch out in the early hours of
- 53:35the next morning Ki would make the
- 53:37ominous tweet in the end we die as well
- 53:39as tweeting her apparent location just
- 53:41off 63rd later that afternoon Ki would
- 53:44be standing on a nearby porch in the
- 53:466400 Block of South eart Avenue only a
- 53:483-minute walk towards O block from the
- 53:51location that she had tweeted she was at
- 53:52earlier that day and that was the day
- 53:54that King Von would allegedly find that
- 53:56woman that he had been looking for all
- 53:57this time as Ki would indeed be gunned
- 53:59down on April the 11th 2014 The Murder
- 54:02report on ki's death would feature a
- 54:03witness describing the shooter who
- 54:05hopped out of a car catching Ki and
- 54:07another man who were about to shoot dice
- 54:09they would run into a gangway but the
- 54:11shooter kept firing apparently even
- 54:12shouting yeah [ __ ] nword as he fired
- 54:15the handgun at KI multiple times she
- 54:18would be shot nine times and declared
- 54:19dead just 2 hours later rantel Brown the
- 54:22statistics are more than just numbers
- 54:24within 12 short hours of across Chicago
- 54:2714 people were wounded two people killed
- 54:30one of them being Brown's oldest child
- 54:33I'm just going to miss her presence she
- 54:35was a very very beautiful well-known
- 54:38like lovely girl 17-year-old jakyra
- 54:41Barnes loved basketball her friends and
- 54:44being with family it's still under
- 54:46investigation what exactly happened
- 54:47Friday afternoon in the 6400 Block of
- 54:50South Eberhart but neighbors say Barnes
- 54:52and a friend were walking along the
- 54:53sidewalk when a gunman started firing
- 54:56when the Bulet hit her was so powerful
- 54:58she fell on the step residents who do
- 55:00not want to be identified say Barnes
- 55:02fought to live but had been shot at
- 55:04least nine times in the jaw in the neck
- 55:07and in chest and in the
- 55:09legs
- 55:11mm nine times they say Barnes was
- 55:13transported to Northwestern where she
- 55:15died and tragically for this
- 55:17neighborhood it wasn't the first child
- 55:19lost to gunfire and Von would go on to
- 55:21tweet just hours after Ki was pronounced
- 55:23dead saying that he loves his gang and
- 55:25they love him before tweeting mad that
- 55:28nobody misses him and this was followed
- 55:30by people confirming that Ki had been
- 55:31killed oblock veteran Jay Hood would
- 55:33reveal in a cam Capone interview many
- 55:35years later that Von came back to oblock
- 55:38and told him what he' done immediately
- 55:40after the murder but he literally say
- 55:42just like this we I'm looking straight
- 55:45he man why I just run up on Ki and um he
- 55:47know why I just ran up on them and
- 55:50caught and caught Ki she was the last
- 55:52one running out of the gate I was like
- 55:55no way the D after the hit black
- 55:57disciple rapper Lil Reese would tweet
- 55:59Von's catchphrase saying that he does
- 56:00his thing seemingly a congratulatory
- 56:03post to Von who replied saying you got
- 56:05to Von would later tweet that he needs a
- 56:07real [ __ ] and over the next few days he
- 56:09would once again deliver a flurry of
- 56:11activity on Twitter tweeting that his
- 56:12Ops don't scare him and that the whole
- 56:14gang war is funny to him he would say
- 56:16that he's lost a lot of friends so his
- 56:18enemies must die in retaliation Von
- 56:21would also tweet saying that people
- 56:22wouldn't believe the things that he does
- 56:23in the streets and saying that he will
- 56:25never tell V would even copy ki's
- 56:27earlier tweet from the week before her
- 56:29murder about people not getting the
- 56:30picture until you put them in the frame
- 56:32as well as tweeting at her saying he
- 56:34misses his old girl Von was clearly in a
- 56:36celebratory mood following the murder of
- 56:38Ki and he would go on to make post after
- 56:40post referencing the ongoing gang war
- 56:42posting tributes to T Roy telling his
- 56:44incarcerated friend that he was going
- 56:46crazy on the streets while he was locked
- 56:47up Von was seemingly proud of himself
- 56:49for all he was achieving in the streets
- 56:51at this point he would seemingly update
- 56:53his body count to six openly tweeting
- 56:55homicide in the the air and that he made
- 56:57six people extinct for playing hard Von
- 57:00would even post his own mug shot saying
- 57:02they should have never freed him because
- 57:03he's a menace he tweeted that he put
- 57:05people's brains in their lap and asked
- 57:08his followers if they would still be
- 57:09there for him when he gets 100 years in
- 57:11jail Von would suggest that he is only
- 57:13competing in kill counts with Troy
- 57:15suggesting that those two were the most
- 57:17deadly people in the streets at this
- 57:19time and he would claim to wake up in
- 57:20the morning thinking of nothing but
- 57:22killing people other rappers and
- 57:23well-known figures around Chicago drill
- 57:25would continue to tweak congratulating
- 57:27King Von after this murder people like
- 57:28Lil Reese and boss top and Von would
- 57:30also tweet on April the 28th that
- 57:32there's only two places for a man like
- 57:34him presumably jail or Hell clearly he
- 57:37must have had an inkling as he would end
- 57:39up being picked up in connection to the
- 57:40murder the following day on the 29th of
- 57:42April but Von would never be formally
- 57:44charged with ki's murder he would deny
- 57:46even knowing her and would initially
- 57:47offer to do a polygraph test as well as
- 57:49providing a loose Alibi relying on a
- 57:51woman claiming that she had been with
- 57:52him the entire day of the murder combine
- 57:55that with the fact that Von had
- 57:56apparently checked in with his parole
- 57:57officer just an hour before the murder
- 58:00worked in his favor despite the crime
- 58:01scene being only 35 minutes from the
- 58:03parole office meaning that Von had over
- 58:0525 minutes spare to get there and kill
- 58:07Ki immediately after signing in with his
- 58:10PO as a result of these slick Maneuvers
- 58:12Von would indeed be released the next
- 58:13day and face no further consequences in
- 58:15this situation and he would tweet that
- 58:17he beat that case like Rocky and that he
- 58:19was in a good mood showing love to
- 58:20everyone but the Ops that was followed
- 58:23by him tweeting laughing faces and
- 58:24saying that he was grateful to be free
- 58:26and that he's too real a few days later
- 58:29Von would be tweeting that he beats
- 58:30bodies and that he doesn't plan on going
- 58:32to prison as well as seemingly
- 58:33referencing ki's resemblance to Snoop
- 58:35from The Wire and calling her a dead op
- 58:38years later Von would even go on to brag
- 58:39about killing KI on songs after he
- 58:41started rapping famously saying on the
- 58:43track war with us that he put a pretty
- 58:45op [ __ ] in the morg you can call her
- 58:47drop dead gorgeous as well as saying
- 58:49that he keeps a strap like KI on the
- 58:52song GTA for years following this murder
- 58:54people including myself speculated on
- 58:56whether King Von had killed AI or
- 58:58whether it was the work of fellow oock
- 58:59hitter big a who reportedly went by the
- 59:01nickname aski or ask Ki after her death
- 59:05suggesting that he had something to do
- 59:07with her killing but in lyrics to King
- 59:09Von's leaked song wait he seemingly
- 59:10wrapped about the day that he caught Ki
- 59:12with lyrics A lot of people believe
- 59:14would allude to Von jumping out of the
- 59:15car and chasing Ki down the alley with
- 59:18big a being the driver Von would also
- 59:20rap on the song cousins that he kills
- 59:22women and men and can't tell the
- 59:24difference but it wasn't just Von Lil
- 59:26would also rrap in December of 2014 the
- 59:28year that Ki was killed on the song war
- 59:30with eeday seemingly suggesting that he
- 59:32had owned a gun that was used in ki's
- 59:34Murder now rapping about someone that
- 59:36you killed is one thing but King Von
- 59:38actually went on to do one of the most
- 59:40Psychopathic things I have ever seen
- 59:42because on May the 23rd 2019 a
- 59:44documentary about Ki would air on A&E
- 59:47titled secret life of a gang girl this
- 59:49piece goes in depth into the life of Ki
- 59:51exploring her motivations to become a
- 59:53gang member despite being a petite young
- 59:55woman as as well as interviewing some of
- 59:57the people that knew her during this
- 59:58time and that documentary about Ki would
- 1:00:00interview none other than King Von who
- 1:00:03was featured prominently in the
- 1:00:04documentary and if you ask me he was
- 1:00:06just straight up trolling the TV crew
- 1:00:08who clearly hadn't done their homework
- 1:00:10Von would appear in the show portraying
- 1:00:11himself as having been an infatuated
- 1:00:13admirer pursuing Ki for nothing but
- 1:00:15romantic reasons and the fact that the
- 1:00:17film crew didn't even have an inkling
- 1:00:19that Von was responsible is just crazy
- 1:00:21to me and it's not like the info that he
- 1:00:22killed Ki wasn't already circulating out
- 1:00:24there at this point because while is in
- 1:00:26jail for his next murder in 2016 word of
- 1:00:28his story as a shooter in the Chicago
- 1:00:30gang war would spread on the edgy
- 1:00:32message board for Chan where a gang
- 1:00:34obsessed forchan member would claim to
- 1:00:36have accessed ki's private DMS exposing
- 1:00:39those private messages which we already
- 1:00:40saw between King Von and Ki all the way
- 1:00:43back in 2012 with this deranged forchan
- 1:00:45user even replying to friends of Ki from
- 1:00:48her account who had continued to DM her
- 1:00:50after her death looking for closure with
- 1:00:52that forchan hacker writing a lengthy
- 1:00:54post claiming to have been told by a
- 1:00:56friend of kis in the DMS that they
- 1:00:58believed King vau was her killer bear in
- 1:01:00mind this information was floating
- 1:01:02around all the way back in 2016 2 years
- 1:01:04after the murder and 3 years before the
- 1:01:07documentary however eventually a whole
- 1:01:09year after Von's death in 2021 the
- 1:01:11Chicago police would release documents
- 1:01:13revealing that they believed King Von
- 1:01:15himself to be ki's killer with
- 1:01:17apparently multiple Witnesses pinning
- 1:01:18Von as the shooter but unfortunately the
- 1:01:21state decided not to prosecute stating
- 1:01:23that the case simply wouldn't meet the
- 1:01:24burden of proof to secure a conviction
- 1:01:26so King Von would be released back on
- 1:01:28the streets after having allegedly
- 1:01:30killed the girl he had seemingly spent
- 1:01:32years hunting down but only a month and
- 1:01:34a half later Von would go on to catch
- 1:01:36yet another murder which would finally
- 1:01:38land him in jail and just briefly
- 1:01:41putting a stop to his serialized
- 1:01:46killings after being questioned about
- 1:01:48the Ki murder and being released with no
- 1:01:50consequences King Von felt Invincible
- 1:01:52the month is May 2014 and Von had
- 1:01:55seemingly killed a total of six people
- 1:01:57at this point as usual he'd be on
- 1:01:59Twitter non-stop hinting at his actions
- 1:02:01in the streets asking God for
- 1:02:03forgiveness for killing his Ops and
- 1:02:05saying that he shoots first and asks
- 1:02:07questions later he would tweet that he's
- 1:02:09in a different League when it comes to
- 1:02:10killing and others need to catch up and
- 1:02:12telling the world that he's always armed
- 1:02:14and ready for his Ops clearly Von was
- 1:02:16active in the streets as well as on
- 1:02:18Twitter claiming to be driving through
- 1:02:20his Ops area literally as he was
- 1:02:22tweeting and saying that he has an itchy
- 1:02:24trigger finger Von would claim that any
- 1:02:25body can get smoked for the right price
- 1:02:27or cause warning his Ops not to come
- 1:02:30near him or he will shoot Von would
- 1:02:32claim to never be putting his gun down
- 1:02:34because too many people have died in the
- 1:02:36gang war taunting his Ops saying he
- 1:02:38knows that they want him but it's not
- 1:02:39his time to die Von would even repost a
- 1:02:42viral clip from World Star titled when
- 1:02:44keeping it real goes wrong a video
- 1:02:46apparently showing a group of people
- 1:02:48filming themselves going to Chief
- 1:02:50Keith's neighborhood and getting shot at
- 1:02:52a clip that people would later claim was
- 1:02:54actually King Von doing the shooting I
- 1:02:56mean just imagine having the balls to
- 1:02:57shoot at people and then retweet the
- 1:02:59world star video of you shooting at them
- 1:03:02the same day as this Von would claimed
- 1:03:03that he's buying guns with 100 round
- 1:03:05magazines and wondering who he's going
- 1:03:07to shoot as well as saying that he'd
- 1:03:09been gang banging all day and now he's
- 1:03:11tired out the following day Von would
- 1:03:13tweet saying that others wouldn't do
- 1:03:15half of the stuff that he's done and
- 1:03:16plans to do in the streets and Von would
- 1:03:18say that he plans to keep scoring until
- 1:03:20he wins only 2 days after that Von would
- 1:03:23find himself attempting to score again
- 1:03:25on the 29 of May 2014 an afternoon party
- 1:03:28would be going on at 5722 South Lal
- 1:03:31Street Von would attend this party where
- 1:03:33he spotted two members from the rival
- 1:03:34gang at this point the mother of the
- 1:03:36person whose birthday party it was
- 1:03:38apparently told Von not to start troubl
- 1:03:40in her house with Von saying that he
- 1:03:42wouldn't and leave it Von would leave
- 1:03:43the party and go and get a friend Big
- 1:03:46Mike apparently telling another person
- 1:03:47who was still at the party on the phone
- 1:03:49that he was coming back and that they
- 1:03:51should take the children inside Von and
- 1:03:53Big Mike would return to that party
- 1:03:55parking down the street and approaching
- 1:03:56a group of three men outside the house
- 1:03:58opening fire three of those men would be
- 1:04:00hit by gunshots whilst Von chased them
- 1:04:03allegedly yelling why are you running
- 1:04:05and when the shooting stopped a
- 1:04:0619-year-old Man by the name of Malcolm
- 1:04:08Stucky would be declared dead with a
- 1:04:09gunshot wound to the Head the Chicago
- 1:04:11police would respond to the shooting at
- 1:04:136:10 p.m. arriving on the scene where
- 1:04:15police were pictured securing the
- 1:04:16location around Malcolm's body
- 1:04:18apparently Von was really trying to kill
- 1:04:19two rival gang members that he saw at
- 1:04:21the party ultimately hitting three
- 1:04:22people for only killing Malcolm who
- 1:04:24allegedly wasn't the intended target or
- 1:04:26even involved in the gang war perhaps
- 1:04:28this is why we never hear King Von in
- 1:04:30his career disrespecting or saying that
- 1:04:32he's smoking Malcolm like he did to many
- 1:04:34of the other people that he was rumored
- 1:04:35to have killed but there would still be
- 1:04:37hints at his involvement because while
- 1:04:38Malcolm had been laying in the street
- 1:04:40with a bullet in his head for several
- 1:04:41hours only 12 minutes before he'd
- 1:04:43officially be pronounced dead Von would
- 1:04:45tweet saying that he has some issues but
- 1:04:47he canot tell a soul about them
- 1:04:49meanwhile boss top from oblock would
- 1:04:51tweet that Von is the guy who sits
- 1:04:52people down if they run up now it would
- 1:04:54take nearly 2 months for the authorities
- 1:04:56to connect Von to this murder and during
- 1:04:58this time he would continue to be
- 1:05:00prolific posting on Twitter he would
- 1:05:01tweet that he was on the block with his
- 1:05:03gun in the early hours of the morning
- 1:05:04just the day after the murder of Malcolm
- 1:05:06and tweeting that all of the things that
- 1:05:08people are hearing about are him he's
- 1:05:10the one responsible he would tweet
- 1:05:11saying that he's killed so many Ops that
- 1:05:13he doesn't have any more feelings he'd
- 1:05:15also tweet that it's all fun and games
- 1:05:17until somebody you know is no longer
- 1:05:18breathing and he would tweet saying that
- 1:05:20he did all of this on parole and just
- 1:05:23wait until he gets off with a demon
- 1:05:25emoji and in another deleted tweet that
- 1:05:27was apparently reposted by somebody else
- 1:05:29Von openly tweeted saying that he wanted
- 1:05:31to go on an allout Killing Spree however
- 1:05:33King Von's crime spree would ultimately
- 1:05:35be cut short on Prom Night of all nights
- 1:05:38Von would be pictured holding a gun at
- 1:05:39oock in his suit in the hours before
- 1:05:41prom and he would even tweet warning
- 1:05:43people not to try him while he's dressed
- 1:05:45in his suit Von would then end up doing
- 1:05:46a shooting in his prom suit with
- 1:05:48Witnesses describing his outfit
- 1:05:50ultimately leading to his arrest Von's
- 1:05:52last tweet would be on June the 7th 2014
- 1:05:54the ominous state loose screws get
- 1:05:57nailed he would end up being arrested on
- 1:05:58Firearms charges on prom night and then
- 1:06:01the following month on the 22nd of July
- 1:06:022014 Von's accomplice in the murder of
- 1:06:05Malcolm Stucky Big Mike ended up getting
- 1:06:07charged with murder and being taken in
- 1:06:09for questioning by the police then 2
- 1:06:10days later on July the 24th 2014 King
- 1:06:13Von already in jail would be charged
- 1:06:15with one count of first-degree murder
- 1:06:17for the killing of Malcolm Stucky and
- 1:06:19two counts of attempted murder for the
- 1:06:20other two people shot in that incident
- 1:06:22Von's arrest for this crime would
- 1:06:23attract significant media coverage and
- 1:06:25he would remain in jail awaiting trial
- 1:06:27from June 2014 to December 2017 and
- 1:06:30during that time his people would tweet
- 1:06:31from his Twitter account saying that
- 1:06:33they missed him asking for visitors to
- 1:06:35come see him on his birthday and posting
- 1:06:37clips and pictures of him in jail during
- 1:06:38his
- 1:06:50visits Rec already Dr dropping r on
- 1:06:55thirst what's up you miss me man yes you
- 1:06:58lying no I'm not you got the money from
- 1:07:00M no it's still in her
- 1:07:08car
- 1:07:10[Music]
- 1:07:17ugly but while Von was in jail he would
- 1:07:19Raise Hell apparently helping to start a
- 1:07:21huge fire on the wing in April 2017 he
- 1:07:23would constantly get into fights with
- 1:07:25his Ops apparently never turning down
- 1:07:26confrontations that's why I can say Van
- 1:07:28van had over 20 fights in that he
- 1:07:31was he talk about jail he talk about
- 1:07:34that like it's a right of passage like
- 1:07:35every was a street like him he was like
- 1:07:37jail was coming that's why he was always
- 1:07:39in that because he never cared about
- 1:07:41jail that's how he was able to be the
- 1:07:42type of he was in the streets cuz some
- 1:07:44of these Savages like and you supposed
- 1:07:46to you supposed to do with that in the
- 1:07:48back of your mind like knowing like man
- 1:07:50go south go to jail well shorty sliding
- 1:07:53up on like the police don't even exist
- 1:07:56he smoke you right day Von would remain
- 1:07:58in jail for an extended period of time
- 1:08:01around 3 and 1/2 years in total and
- 1:08:02during his time in jail he picked up the
- 1:08:04nickname grandson apparently for his
- 1:08:06resemblance in image as well as
- 1:08:08temperament to the Black Disciples
- 1:08:10founder David barkdale also known as
- 1:08:12King David it's obvious that King Von
- 1:08:14took a lot of inspiration from the
- 1:08:16original founder of the gang that he
- 1:08:17rept the Black Disciples not only going
- 1:08:19by the name King Von but also frequently
- 1:08:21saying David barksdale's nickname often
- 1:08:23ending sentences by saying on King David
- 1:08:26it's on King David also while Von was in
- 1:08:28jail awaiting trial the conflicts in the
- 1:08:30streets would continue to play out and
- 1:08:32Von would eventually get the worst news
- 1:08:34imaginable his right-hand man T Roy
- 1:08:36would be shot and killed in a
- 1:08:37convenience store on Valentine's Day
- 1:08:392017 Von's people would post Twitter
- 1:08:42tributes memorializing his friend and
- 1:08:43favorite shooter and Von would later
- 1:08:45open up about the very moment that he
- 1:08:47got the news about t Roy's death while
- 1:08:49he was in jail yeah I PT Roy man that my

- 1:12:41attention I ain't going to keep doing
- 1:12:43this this don't supposed to be for free
- 1:12:45Von would take T Roy's death very
- 1:12:46seriously even after becoming a famous
- 1:12:48rapper he would threaten to kill trolls
- 1:12:51who would DM him mocking T Roy on his
- 1:12:53birthday [ __ ] how you feel you a shorty

- 1:13:15don't even play like that game for real
- 1:13:17despite spending three and a half years
- 1:13:18in jail eventually Von would finally
- 1:13:20face trial for the murder of Malcolm
- 1:13:22Stucky Von's family tweeted from his
- 1:13:24Twitter account in November M 2017 that
- 1:13:26they had been attending his trial at
- 1:13:27court and despite what was originally
- 1:13:29thought to be a clear-cut case Von's
- 1:13:31codefendant would end up implicating
- 1:13:33himself and Von in the crime in an
- 1:13:35attempt to secure a deal with
- 1:13:36prosecutors But ultimately backing out
- 1:13:38of that deal at the last minute leaving
- 1:13:39prosecutors scrambling for any evidence
- 1:13:42that would actually implicate Von in the
- 1:13:43murder allegedly eyewitnesses who saw
- 1:13:46Von that night failed to testify and
- 1:13:48King Von would even later rap about the
- 1:13:50situation on the track what's next
- 1:13:52saying that they killed the only witness
- 1:13:54and that big Mike was was the only one
- 1:13:55who spoke this turn of events would see
- 1:13:57King Von being acquitted of all charges
- 1:13:59due to lack of evidence and Big Mike
- 1:14:01himself going down for 16 years plus an
- 1:14:04extra 12 for backing out of a deal with
- 1:14:06prosecutors so a total of 28 years after
- 1:14:09this King Von would be a free man once
- 1:14:11again beating a body and returning to
- 1:14:13the streets of Chicago with his freedom
- 1:14:15and a clean slate the family of Malcolm
- 1:14:16Stucky would later admonish Von on
- 1:14:18social media for getting away with this
- 1:14:20gruesome murder and going on to become a
- 1:14:22rapper but as we'll soon learn Von had
- 1:14:24zero shame about the things that he had
- 1:14:26done in the streets in fact he would
- 1:14:27wear the badge of a killer who beat a
- 1:14:29body with pride and after killing an
- 1:14:31alleged seven people in total when Von
- 1:14:34got out of jail it would be time for a
- 1:14:35new beginning as the newly free King Von
- 1:14:37would take all of his stories from being
- 1:14:39a killer on the streets of Chicago and
- 1:14:41put them into songs becoming a Chicago
- 1:14:43drill rapper with so much credibility as
- 1:14:45a gangster his music simply could not be
- 1:14:48ignored and soon all over Chicago and
- 1:14:50around the world Von's name would be
- 1:14:52ringing as people would begin to
- 1:14:53discover what appeared to be the realest
- 1:14:55gangster rapper who ever
- 1:15:01lived after being acquitted of all
- 1:15:03charges in the murder of Malcolm Stucky
- 1:15:05King Von would walk out of jail a free
- 1:15:07man once again around the 6th of
- 1:15:09December 2017 being seen walking fresh
- 1:15:11out of the gates on social
- 1:15:18media
- 1:15:21up last B
- 1:15:26come Von would also return to Twitter as
- 1:15:29well as the streets telling 16 shot in
- 1:15:31visuals that his friend e dog from oock
- 1:15:33picked him up and the first thing they
- 1:15:34did was go and buy a
- 1:15:45gun at the time of his release V wasn't
- 1:15:48yet a rapper it's unclear if V ever
- 1:15:50really had aspirations of transitioning
- 1:15:52from shooter to rapper on the one hand
- 1:15:54there's old tweet where he perhaps
- 1:15:55jokingly said that him and Troy had
- 1:15:57planned to release music but nothing
- 1:15:59ever materialized on the other hand he
- 1:16:01had also tweeted that if he ever starts
- 1:16:02rapping you should kill the person
- 1:16:04closest to you because something ain't
- 1:16:06right so it's safe to say that at least
- 1:16:08initially Von's plans were not music at
- 1:16:10least not for himself because one person
- 1:16:12who hadn't forgotten V during his long 3
- 1:16:15and a half years in jail was his
- 1:16:16childhood friend and Chicago rap
- 1:16:18Superstar Lil duk who had tweeted his
- 1:16:20support for Von whilst he was still in
- 1:16:21jail fighting his charges and apparently
- 1:16:23calling him regularly even providing
- 1:16:25money for a lawyer Dirk would welcome
- 1:16:27Von home from jail with open arms with
- 1:16:29Von actually revealing later that his
- 1:16:31friendship with Dirk had initially had
- 1:16:32an ulterior motive and at first he was
- 1:16:35just planning to hang around Dirk and
- 1:16:36Rob people that he knew just to get
- 1:16:38himself to $100,000 I went no rapper so
- 1:16:41so it wasn't my none of that raing [ __ ]
- 1:16:43I'm thinking like I just need to get
- 1:16:45100,000 I'm be decent I'm Rob and I'm to
- 1:16:48Rob
- 1:16:49this this why I was thinking in jail
- 1:16:51when I when I was
- 1:16:56they say what you gonna do I say I'm
- 1:16:57just I'm g go around dirt and I'm just
- 1:16:59gonna catch me I'm go around dirt and
- 1:17:02I'm catch me like two three you see what
- 1:17:03I'm saying and I ain't going to let him
- 1:17:05know cuz he going try to stop me after
- 1:17:06coming home from jail music was the last
- 1:17:08thing on King Von's mind he just wanted
- 1:17:10to get money and flex his new found
- 1:17:12Freedom he would be seen fresh home
- 1:17:13posing in new outfits on Instagram with
- 1:17:15pictures celebrating his freedom
- 1:17:17attracting threats from his enemies like
- 1:17:19FBG cash but it seemed that Von's
- 1:17:21friends would be looking out for him and
- 1:17:22no one was looking out for Von more
- 1:17:24during this time than Lil Dirk who would
- 1:17:25invite vau into his life and Entourage
- 1:17:28as he continued his rise as one of
- 1:17:29Chicago's most promising rappers Durk
- 1:17:31was working on his 2018 mixtape just cuz
- 1:17:34y'all waited and that tape featured the
- 1:17:35classic track dirky o crazy soon after
- 1:17:38getting out of jail Von would be sitting
- 1:17:39in the back of Dirk's car previewing
- 1:17:41this future classic before it was
- 1:17:42released perhaps the reason that Dirk
- 1:17:44wanted to play Von this track is because
- 1:17:46the song itself references Von's case
- 1:17:48with Dirk rapping that a witness went
- 1:17:50missing and now Von is coming home once
- 1:17:52again Von's real life of crime was
- 1:17:54provided in inspiration for Chicago's
- 1:17:56biggest rappers clearly duk was inspired
- 1:17:58by the return of his newly freed hitter
- 1:18:00and would continue spending time with
- 1:18:02him ler that day in the same Instagram
- 1:18:04live King Von would explain to Durk how
- 1:18:06he grew his hair in jail just to keep
- 1:18:07himself warm and explaining just how
- 1:18:09painful the shackles were that he was
- 1:18:11forced to wear whil in solitary
- 1:18:13confinement it was cold them night it
- 1:18:16was cold them night

- 1:18:49look I got
- 1:18:50this Von would seemingly spend Christmas
- 1:18:522017 with duck too with then being seen
- 1:18:55together on social media listening to
- 1:18:57Classic Chicago drill anthems by La
- 1:18:59Capone moving into 2018 Von started off
- 1:19:01in classic Savage mode posting on social
- 1:19:03media tote and guns and declaring his
- 1:19:05desire to bring War to his Ops he had

- 1:23:07yeah after the arrest a furious looking
- 1:23:10King Von mug shot circulated online but
- 1:23:12Von would be out within just a couple of
- 1:23:13days tweeting that he believes that the
- 1:23:15cops have it out for him because he
- 1:23:17escaped those murder charges and he
- 1:23:19would boast that he would never let them
- 1:23:20get him clearly King Von wasn't ready to
- 1:23:22permanently move on from his life as a
- 1:23:24oock hitter and he would still be going
- 1:23:26live on oock in March 2018 mocking their
- 1:23:29Dead Ops right who got T
- 1:23:38man I can't be in the room without
- 1:23:41smelling T i' got at least smell it just
- 1:23:44know like just to know like T still
- 1:23:47around and love and memory but Von would
- 1:23:50also continue to be seen hanging out
- 1:23:52closely with l Durk seemingly making
- 1:23:54regular trips to spend time with the
- 1:23:56rapper in Atlanta at a certain point Von
- 1:23:58and Durk would be reunited with another
- 1:24:00friend and feared Chicago shooter thf
- 1:24:02bzu with bzu just like Von beating a
- 1:24:042014 murder charge for a shooting that
- 1:24:07occurred in 2009 Lil Dirk was now
- 1:24:09rolling with two certified Chicago
- 1:24:11shooters on his team but the plan wasn't
- 1:24:13to shoot Dirk planned instead to
- 1:24:15transform these hardened Street figures
- 1:24:17into rap Superstars the realest rappers
- 1:24:19who had ever rapped with the realest
- 1:24:21backstories to back it up Von would post
- 1:24:23pictures in the studio with Durk saying
- 1:24:25that he isn't going back to his old ways
- 1:24:27and hinting to an upcoming career in the
- 1:24:28rap game since being his murder case and
- 1:24:30coming home Von had the perfect
- 1:24:32backstory to Kickstart his music career
- 1:24:34too thf bzu had essentially been through
- 1:24:36the very same situation so Von and bzu
- 1:24:38would be paired up and placed into a
- 1:24:40studio where they would record a song
- 1:24:42all about their shared experience
- 1:24:44beating real life murder charges
- 1:24:46something that Von and bzu would open up
- 1:24:47about in a 16 short
- 1:24:50interview that's the story we can tell
- 1:24:53some
- 1:24:56on May the 27th 2018 King Von and thf
- 1:24:59bzu released their first song Beat That
- 1:25:01Body a track coming with shocking lyrics
- 1:25:03where Von essentially admits to catching
- 1:25:05bodies beating them and even saying that
- 1:25:07he now plans to catch more this insane
- 1:25:09backstory would be irresistible for
- 1:25:11Chicago drill fans with Dirk later
- 1:25:13revealing that people instantly went
- 1:25:15crazy for Von's music in Chicago and he
- 1:25:17see like as what we doing his music and
- 1:25:19I had a studio in my house he just tried
- 1:25:21and when he dropped the song like the
- 1:25:22reaction was just like he
- 1:25:25X you on some know saying but Von didn't
- 1:25:28seem too hopeful for his rap career to
- 1:25:29begin with barely promoting the song and
- 1:25:31seemingly having no plans to give up his
- 1:25:33full-time job as an oock driller or at
- 1:25:35least shot caller because in the months
- 1:25:37that followed Von's musical debut
- 1:25:39killings would still continue to play
- 1:25:40out in the streets with v appearing to
- 1:25:42remain plugged into the action not only
- 1:25:44giving Von and his gang even more credit
- 1:25:46in the streets but with these murders
- 1:25:48also providing V with the inspiration to
- 1:25:50get back into the booth where he would
- 1:25:51continue to record music all about the
- 1:25:53deadly vience that he would soon become
- 1:25:55famous
- 1:25:59for while King Von was in jail numerous
- 1:26:01people from oblock ended up getting
- 1:26:03killed perhaps it was precisely because
- 1:26:05their most Fearless shooter was in jail
- 1:26:07that so many people ended up passing
- 1:26:08while he was gone Von was particularly
- 1:26:10hurt by the killing of Troy his
- 1:26:12right-hand man and after Troy was killed
- 1:26:14a new set of gangsters would form in
- 1:26:15oblock who went by the name get back
- 1:26:17gang this was a hardened crew of
- 1:26:19Shooters whose sole Focus was to get
- 1:26:21revenge or get back for the murder of
- 1:26:23Troy and other beloved oblock natives
- 1:26:26who had been killed while vom was in
- 1:26:27jail another one of these Fallen oblock
- 1:26:29Affiliates was China was shot dead on
- 1:26:31the 17th of July 2016 another big a was
- 1:26:34gunned down in a restaurant near oblock
- 1:26:36on the 4th of December 2016 get back
- 1:26:39gang would be on a killing spree trying
- 1:26:41to avenge their fallen friends looking
- 1:26:42to kill anyone who played a role in
- 1:26:44their demise poppy believed to have been
- 1:26:46involved in hits against oblock would be
- 1:26:48gunned down at work on the 16th of June
- 1:26:502017 allegedly being shot in the head by
- 1:26:53an oblock member called heck who would
- 1:26:55go on to be known by the nickname HK or
- 1:26:57headshot King HK was T Roy's brother and
- 1:27:00would reportedly avenge him with t Roy's
- 1:27:02alleged killer TB or Terry Barry being
- 1:27:04shot dead on the 26th of December 2017
- 1:27:07however HK himself would end up being
- 1:27:09killed in oblock 2 just before Von got
- 1:27:12out of jail on the 24th of November 2017
- 1:27:14another person who seemingly lost their
- 1:27:16life to get back gang's Revenge campaign
- 1:27:18during this time would be FBG brick FBG
- 1:27:21Doug's brother rumored to have played a
- 1:27:23role in giving up T Roy's location to
- 1:27:25the Ops the day he was killed with brick
- 1:27:27and his friend Kobe being gunned down in
- 1:27:29a get back gang attack on the 17th of
- 1:27:31July 2017 in fact many of these murders
- 1:27:34played out in 2017 whilst V was still
- 1:27:36behind bars for the murder of Malcolm
- 1:27:38Stucky and when Von got out despite
- 1:27:40becoming a rapper spending time in
- 1:27:41Atlanta with Lil Durk and seemingly
- 1:27:43taking a step away from the gang war Von
- 1:27:45would still seem to be looked at as a
- 1:27:46senior figure and shot caller to members
- 1:27:49of oblock and get back gang and when
- 1:27:51they killed again King Von would be on
- 1:27:52the sidelines celebrating the murder as
- 1:27:54if it was one of his own on June the
- 1:27:5613th 2018 King Von would tweet saying
- 1:27:58that there's a new rule you can only
- 1:28:00diss or smoke a dead person that you
- 1:28:02yourself actually killed only days after
- 1:28:05that tweet get back gang would
- 1:28:06unfortunately claim another life the
- 1:28:08next unlucky person to be killed would
- 1:28:10be a St Lawrence native by the name of
- 1:28:12Can't Get Right AKA manman real name
- 1:28:14DeAndre Wallace on June the 15th 2018
- 1:28:17around 9:50 p.m. Can't Get Right is
- 1:28:19waiting for food outside of a store on
- 1:28:21400 block of East 63rd Street at a
- 1:28:23certain point two people pulled up and
- 1:28:25waited outside and when the target was
- 1:28:27spotted those two men ran up opening
- 1:28:29fire killing both the target as well as
- 1:28:31an innocent bystander that was just
- 1:28:33there sweeping up outside the restaurant
- 1:28:35and once again the shooting and
- 1:28:36immediate aftermath were captured on
- 1:28:38CCTV footage and by Witnesses in clips
- 1:28:41that are far too Grizzly to show you on
- 1:28:42YouTube both men shot in the incident
- 1:28:44were pronounced dead at the University
- 1:28:46of Chicago hospital with the news even
- 1:28:48later reporting on this assassination
- 1:28:50morning are looking for the gunmen who
- 1:28:51killed two men overnight they were
- 1:28:53standing outside of a store in the
- 1:28:55city's wood law neighborhood when
- 1:28:56someone started shooting a 43-year-old
- 1:28:59man was shot in the chest he died at the
- 1:29:01hospital the other victim a 22-year-old
- 1:29:04also died police say the 22-year-old is
- 1:29:07a known gang member and was the intended
- 1:29:09target King Von would go live on the
- 1:29:11same day as this double murder alongside
- 1:29:13mimo 600 while still in Atlanta with Lil
- 1:29:15durk's team and in this live King Von
- 1:29:17would set out to poke fun at his
- 1:29:19murdered Rivals immediately after they
- 1:29:20were killed and let's not forget only
- 1:29:22days before this King Von TW Ed that you
- 1:29:24can't disrespect the dead unless you
- 1:29:26played a role in killing them with that
- 1:29:28in mind King Von's live stream after the
- 1:29:29murder was truly a master class in self
- 1:29:32incrimination they would start the live
- 1:29:33off lighting a blunt and saying that

- 1:32:50the police have their eye on him Von
- 1:32:52later tweeted claiming that his brothers
- 1:32:54made the new OP pack literally giving
- 1:32:56direct responsibility for this murder to
- 1:32:58his team it seemed clear at this point
- 1:33:00that Von was not only happy about the
- 1:33:02killing that his friends from oblock
- 1:33:03were doing but he was actively
- 1:33:05encouraging it and quite possibly the
- 1:33:06one giving the orders friends of manwan
- 1:33:08would post outright saying that they
- 1:33:10believed King vau paid for the hit doing
- 1:33:12all that tap him up and see if he can

- 1:33:40King V but V honestly didn't seem to
- 1:33:42care about anything at this point and
- 1:33:44despite the fact that word was spreading
- 1:33:45that he was the shock caller in get back
- 1:33:47gangs murders Von wasn't trying to keep
- 1:33:49this a secret in fact he was ready to
- 1:33:51broadcast that message to millions of

- 1:33:56durk's only the family involved volume 1
- 1:33:58compilation album releases the project

- 1:34:07about Von having hitters that catch
- 1:34:09bodies for him even warning people do

- 1:34:14essentially tells the story of oblock
- 1:34:16Shooters killing people on Von's Comm up

- 1:34:20shouted out get back gang and there were
- 1:34:22lyrics about killing both the target and

- 1:34:26his Hobby and he says that his loyal
- 1:34:27Shooters are the ones catching bodies
- 1:34:29for him Von would also tease a music
- 1:34:31video for this track which ended up
- 1:34:33dropping on Lil durk's official YouTube
- 1:34:35channel on August the 9th King Von's
- 1:34:3724th birthday meanwhile Lil Durk was
- 1:34:40impressed with King Von's murder raps
- 1:34:41tweeting that Von was next up to break
- 1:34:43into the rap game and this would be
- 1:34:45followed by Von telling fans that he
- 1:34:46would soon be dropping music with Lil
- 1:34:48Durk himself and saying that he would be
- 1:34:50switching up and not associating with

- 1:36:25annotate these pictures speculating on
- 1:36:27how many people each O Block member had
- 1:36:30killed naturally all of this Reckless
- 1:36:32Behavior on social media brought even
- 1:36:33more police attention onto oblock by the
- 1:36:35end of August 2018 The Block is Hot and
- 1:36:38King Von is seen on live observing
- 1:36:40arrests taking place on oblock itself

- 1:37:20murders on camera and suggesting that at
- 1:37:22this point the gang war must be over but
- 1:37:24as we' later find out the war would be
- 1:37:26far from over while King Von was making
- 1:37:27a name for himself as a rapper still
- 1:37:29commanding his shooters from oblock he
- 1:37:31would continue to be associated with
- 1:37:33serious crimes from a distance with the
- 1:37:35next incident involving one of his
- 1:37:36longest running enemies and a feared op
- 1:37:39of oblock
- 1:37:44wki King Von had started out October
- 1:37:472018 strong fresh off the back of his
- 1:37:49song and music video problems where he
- 1:37:51appeared to celebrate his gang murdering
- 1:37:53oblock rival Can't Get Right Von would
- 1:37:55continue pushing his career forward
- 1:37:57dropping a full music video for his
- 1:37:58first song beat that body with thf bzu
- 1:38:01which featured an intro where they both
- 1:38:02walked out of jail together outside of
- 1:38:04the music Von was also beginning to
- 1:38:06notice the many videos being made about
- 1:38:08him and his past even re-sharing a
- 1:38:10YouTube video breaking down his Twitter
- 1:38:12beef with FBG Duck seemingly unhappy
- 1:38:15clearly Von was monitoring his
- 1:38:16reputation on social media and
- 1:38:18cultivating his brand as the toughest
- 1:38:20rapper out doing all of this whilst real
- 1:38:22violent crimes would continue to play
- 1:38:24out on the streets of Chicago where he
- 1:38:25was from just before 400 p.m. on October
- 1:38:27the 9th 2018 Chicago Rapper dusi the man
- 1:38:30real Nam ventrice Chris would be shot in
- 1:38:33the head on the 5600 Block of South
- 1:38:35Michigan Avenue apparently the result of
- 1:38:36a driveby carried out by a passing Brown
- 1:38:39vehicle the evening before the murder
- 1:38:40took place Von would tweet that there's
- 1:38:42a dark cloud over Chicago King Von would
- 1:38:44go on live a few days later with Lil
- 1:38:46Durk saying that he's smoking dusi Ki
- 1:38:49Tuka and P5
- 1:39:01[ __ ]

- 1:39:14ganger only gangsters eat that
- 1:39:17you you look nice you looking real like
- 1:39:20PG like us I play against damn
- 1:39:24violence was continuing to play out in
- 1:39:25the streets and V was loving it because
- 1:39:27he would continue taking the details of
- 1:39:29killings his crew were allegedly
- 1:39:30involved in and placing them into
- 1:39:32musical gang banging anthems just after
- 1:39:34a week after the DOI shooting on October
- 1:39:36the 18th he dropped a new song called
- 1:39:38war with us notable for lyrics that
- 1:39:40appear to take credit for the murder of
- 1:39:42female driller Ki as well as lines
- 1:39:44dissing Tuka and Von ending the song
- 1:39:46literally saying that he is a hit man
- 1:39:48Von was dangerous but now he was
- 1:39:50beginning to make it as a rapper he
- 1:39:51wanted the whole world to know just how
- 1:39:53dangerous he really was and one of the
- 1:39:55biggest enemies he wanted to get even
- 1:39:57with is a tville GD by the name of woi
- 1:40:00Von and woi had been going back and
- 1:40:02forth all the way back to 2012 when Von
- 1:40:04was catching bodies in Chicago Von and
- 1:40:06woi had an Infamous exchange on Twitter
- 1:40:08after trying to catch each other lacking
- 1:40:09at the local convenience store Von would
- 1:40:11tweet at woi bragging about people woi
- 1:40:14knew who Von or his friends had killed
- 1:40:16something that woi would do back to Von
- 1:40:18in response in one shocking back and
- 1:40:19forth in 2012 Von even bragged to woi
- 1:40:23that he had more bodies and attempts
- 1:40:24than him with the two arguing about who
- 1:40:26would end up getting killed first not
- 1:40:28only did Von and W's feud in the Streets
- 1:40:30Run Deep all the way back before 2012
- 1:40:33but now that Von was trying to make it
- 1:40:34as a rapper he would be contending with
- 1:40:36the likes of wki picking up a microphone
- 1:40:38too with woi having dropped the very
- 1:40:40disrespectful song computers at the
- 1:40:42start of 2018 a track that featured
- 1:40:44numerous lyrics insulting dead oblock
- 1:40:46Affiliates like big A J Money white
- 1:40:48white Chino and OD Perry woi even ended
- 1:40:51the song saying that they're on the hunt
- 1:40:53for the killers of Poppy and TB two of
- 1:40:55The prominent murders seemingly
- 1:40:57committed by oblock get back G so the
- 1:40:59beef between Von and woi was incredibly
- 1:41:01personal and woi was also very close
- 1:41:04with the recently deceased dusi with
- 1:41:05them having made the song Shooters
- 1:41:07together just a few days after DOI was
- 1:41:09killed King Von and others from oblock
- 1:41:11would FaceTime woi telling him that they
- 1:41:13were going to catch him by surprise this
- 1:41:15your big brother yeah you know
- 1:41:18the that's your big brother you know I
- 1:41:20wish I could say one of y'all was my boy
- 1:41:22we got all goopies over
- 1:41:24[Music]
- 1:41:27do to do it tonight off the courage
- 1:41:33what we go surprise you talk about
- 1:41:36tonight we go surprise
- 1:41:40bro but night so from here it seems like
- 1:41:44wy's Ops hatched up a plot to shoot up
- 1:41:47DUI's funeral because they knew that he
- 1:41:49would be there on the afternoon of the
- 1:41:5122nd of October at doi's funeral soon
- 1:41:53after this picture is taken a car turns
- 1:41:55up people jump out of that car and begin
- 1:41:57shooting into the crowd outside the
- 1:41:59church firing indiscriminately but
- 1:42:01looking specifically to kill woi six
- 1:42:03people were hit in this shooting with
- 1:42:05woi himself being shot in the head but
- 1:42:07he would miraculously survive only a few
- 1:42:09days after the shooting Von would begin
- 1:42:10tweeting I kid you not comparing himself
- 1:42:13to Jesus and then tweeting laugh now cry
- 1:42:16later and game over we won with fellow
- 1:42:19oblock shooter muop retweeting and
- 1:42:21agreeing with this over the next few
- 1:42:23years Von would go on to drop numerous
- 1:42:25disrespectful lyrics referencing the
- 1:42:26shooting of woi like on the track
- 1:42:28grandson for president where he RS that
- 1:42:30woi got shot in his head and now has to
- 1:42:33take medicine for his injuries Von would
- 1:42:35rap on the song GTA who shot woi how
- 1:42:37would I know Von also wrapped on the
- 1:42:39track go and get him that he will be at
- 1:42:41your funeral on time to give your mother
- 1:42:43a tissue and then there's the lyrics on
- 1:42:45his track back again where he literally
- 1:42:47says that he slides at funerals shoots
- 1:42:50everyone outside and that wki is going
- 1:42:52to feel this one
- 1:42:53going on to say I bet wki still
- 1:42:55twitching he changed something different
- 1:42:58those are some of the most disrespectful
- 1:42:59lyrics I have ever come across but it's
- 1:43:01also incredibly self-incriminating it's
- 1:43:03honestly insane that Von was getting
- 1:43:05away with stuff like this but it really
- 1:43:06was this kind of raw and real content
- 1:43:09that attracted so many people to his
- 1:43:10music whether or not they even knew what
- 1:43:11he was talking about from here Von would
- 1:43:13continue to mock woi throughout his
- 1:43:15career posting disrespectful pictures to
- 1:43:17him on Instagram on a regular basis but
- 1:43:19ultimately despite being literally shot
- 1:43:21in the head wki is still alive live
- 1:43:23today in 2023 and still posting on
- 1:43:25Instagram in fact woi would indeed
- 1:43:27outlive King Von just like he had
- 1:43:29promised him on Twitter in 2012 the day
- 1:43:31before boss Trail died but for the time
- 1:43:33being woi would take a step back from
- 1:43:35the bee with Von and oblock and a newly
- 1:43:37charged King Von would go all in on his
- 1:43:39rap career continuing to roll with
- 1:43:40little Dirk and going on to record song
- 1:43:42after song about living the lifestyle of
- 1:43:44a shot calling killer but unfortunately
- 1:43:46for little Dirk rolling with this Loose
- 1:43:48Cannon would soon be causing him
- 1:43:50problems too and it would only be a
- 1:43:51matter of months after the funeral shoot
- 1:43:53that Lil Durk would find himself in a
- 1:43:55car with a trigger happy King Von
- 1:43:56perhaps succumbing to peer pressure and
- 1:43:58picking up a gun of his own with l Durk
- 1:44:00making a split second decision that
- 1:44:02would nearly cost him his career and
- 1:44:07Freedom the month after the shooting at
- 1:44:09doi's funeral which critically injured
- 1:44:11woi King Von seemed to be worried about
- 1:44:13his reputation tweeting that the past is
- 1:44:15always coming back to haunt him and
- 1:44:16saying that he's not a murderer not a
- 1:44:18rapper not a scammer just handsome but
- 1:44:21also tweeting that if you play with on
- 1:44:23the internet he's going to your house
- 1:44:25perhaps behind the scenes Von was
- 1:44:26beginning to struggle to manage his
- 1:44:28reputation now he was becoming a
- 1:44:29legitimate rapper in the music industry
- 1:44:31he might have been worried about his
- 1:44:33past as a killer getting in the way of
- 1:44:34his new plans Von said that he was
- 1:44:36having nightmares during this time and
- 1:44:38that he was popping pills to cope
- 1:44:40there'd be a few interesting exchanges
- 1:44:41around this time too like a Twitter
- 1:44:43conversation between Von and his baby
- 1:44:44mama where Von joked that he would put
- 1:44:46her on the news and then backtracking
- 1:44:48having to deny being a killer at this
- 1:44:50point Von was clearly concerned about
- 1:44:52his reputation and was on edge to even
- 1:44:54joke about being a killer but one person
- 1:44:56who wasn't worried about Von's
- 1:44:57reputation was Lil Durk who was doing
- 1:44:59everything he could to put King Von on
- 1:45:01during this time in mid- November 2018
- 1:45:04Lil duk previews King Von's upcoming
- 1:45:06song crazy story on his Instagram fans
- 1:45:08knew that something huge was coming L
- 1:45:10Dirk was taking vau to parties to rub
- 1:45:12shoulders with other huge rappers in the
- 1:45:14industry like y andw Melly and Ry Rich
- 1:45:16even taking an enthusiastic King Von to
- 1:45:18the studio to hang out with Gunner hey
- 1:45:20Tokyo gun
- 1:45:24[Music]
- 1:45:27okay Durk would even bring King Von
- 1:45:29along to his interviews with Lil durk's
- 1:45:31November 2018 visit to The Breakfast
- 1:45:33Club being one of the first times that
- 1:45:35the mainstream music listening public
- 1:45:37got a glimpse of King Von and this would
- 1:45:39end up being a legendary appearance
- 1:45:41clearly doing all he could to put the
- 1:45:43spotlight on his friend an artist Dirk
- 1:45:45had brought vau onto one of the most
- 1:45:46famous rap interview shows in the world
- 1:45:48what's your artist name bro King what's

- 1:45:55he wanted to sign V because of the
- 1:45:56backstory behind him with Charlamagne
- 1:45:58not being quite prepared for the
- 1:46:00realness when Von started talking about
- 1:46:02beating his murder charge what me you
- 1:46:03want to sign King Von cuz he got a whole
- 1:46:06story behind him what's the story what's

- 1:46:23look you know in the interview you could
- 1:46:25visibly see Lil Durk trying to look out
- 1:46:27for V and covering his tracks after
- 1:46:29Charlamagne began asking V if he
- 1:46:31actually did the murder with Durk buting
- 1:46:32in saying that Von beat it because he
- 1:46:34didn't do it you going to beat it you
- 1:46:36going you going to beat it if you didn't
- 1:46:37do it that's how Von would go on to say
- 1:46:39that he can't get a normal job in
- 1:46:40Chicago because he's done so much dirt
- 1:46:42in the streets that if he was seen
- 1:46:43working a normal job he would probably

- 1:47:00the interview as Von was explaining to
- 1:47:02Charlamagne that he had no plans after
- 1:47:04jail because he's got no experience
- 1:47:05doing anything suddenly Durk begins to
- 1:47:07cough seemingly giving Von an indication
- 1:47:10not to say anything incriminating about
- 1:47:12his former life as a killer what what
- 1:47:13other plans did you have other than rep

- 1:48:08whopping 110,000 views in his first day
- 1:48:11but the appeal of crazy story was
- 1:48:12undeniable it was a storytelling type
- 1:48:14song where Von would use his lyrics to
- 1:48:16tell an entire narrative telling the
- 1:48:18story of himself plotting an armed
- 1:48:20robbery on a rich drug dealer and using

- 1:50:23the side eye there was actually a really
- 1:50:25interesting Reddit thread asking people
- 1:50:27who knew of Von before 2017 to share
- 1:50:29what they thought when they saw him
- 1:50:30getting success in the music industry
- 1:50:32some said that they thought when he
- 1:50:33first started rapping he wouldn't get
- 1:50:35anywhere but then when he kept
- 1:50:36progressing it seemed like his life was
- 1:50:38a real movie whilst another person would
- 1:50:40say 100% I could not believe it when
- 1:50:42Dirk took him on Breakfast Club it was
- 1:50:44so surreal and he almost admitted to
- 1:50:46murder on there too but still I never
- 1:50:48thought he would blow up then crazy
- 1:50:49story came out and started picking up
- 1:50:51steam and it was like dear God this
- 1:50:53literal gang assassin is being played at
- 1:50:55NFL stadiums off the back of the success
- 1:50:58of crazy story King Von would begin
- 1:50:59going even harder in his music with his
- 1:51:01next track getting even more
- 1:51:03disrespectful to the Ops on January the
- 1:51:059th 2019 mimo 600 and King Von will drop
- 1:51:08their new track exposing me and in the
- 1:51:10song Von mentions woi getting shot in
- 1:51:12the head he says that he's put in so
- 1:51:13much work in the street that get back
- 1:51:15gang will now look out for him he says
- 1:51:17outright that he was a killer before the
- 1:51:18rap and saying I swear I killed her
- 1:51:21broke her back a Poss reference to ki's
- 1:51:23murder he would say that he's smoking
- 1:51:25Tuka and Lil Mark and Von even shouts
- 1:51:27out an old friend from oblock DQ was his
- 1:51:29shooter suggesting that he will call a
- 1:51:31hit and have DQ shoot someone for him it
- 1:51:33seemed like the more violent and real
- 1:51:35Von's music got the more fans flocked to
- 1:51:37him but since the success of his crazy
- 1:51:39story and being brought under the wing
- 1:51:41of successful Chicago drill rap Legend
- 1:51:43Lil Dirk Von was spending a lot of time
- 1:51:45away from the Mean Streets of Chicago
- 1:51:46that he had rapped about instead
- 1:51:48beginning to get used to living the high
- 1:51:49life of a successful rapper like Durk
- 1:51:51rather than jumping in stolen cars and
- 1:51:53doing drills Von was seen with Dirk
- 1:51:55jumping off of luxury Yachts seemingly
- 1:51:57surrounded by people who knew his
- 1:51:58reputation well okay okay DK yo it's on
- 1:52:01you now this DK scared this scared okay
- 1:52:07okay okay van this scared look at V look
- 1:52:11at V he too
- 1:52:13scared they talking about van he scared
- 1:52:16to jump they here talking about you all
- 1:52:18that Savage and you scared to jump in
- 1:52:19the
- 1:52:21water all of the success Von was seeing
- 1:52:23didn't seem to change who he really was
- 1:52:25underneath it seemed like Durk was doing
- 1:52:27his best to take a killer out of a
- 1:52:29dangerous environment and turn him into
- 1:52:31a good person and rapper but perhaps Lil
- 1:52:33Durk didn't realize that he was also
- 1:52:35inviting that killer energy into his
- 1:52:37legitimate rap career because on
- 1:52:39February the 5th 2019 around 5:49 a.m.
- 1:52:41Lil Durk and King Von were allegedly
- 1:52:43outside Atlanta restaurant The Varsity
- 1:52:45here an altercation would take place in
- 1:52:47the parking lot where allegedly Lil Durk
- 1:52:49and King Von along with fellow OTF
- 1:52:51affiliate thf bzu and another Chicago
- 1:52:54native named hel bans would allegedly
- 1:52:56shoot and Rob A Man by the name of
- 1:52:58Alexander Withers SPO allegedly
- 1:52:59targeting him for $30,000 cash that he
- 1:53:02had on him at the time detectives would
- 1:53:04later claim that a video showed Lil Durk
- 1:53:06shooting out of his own personal car a
- 1:53:08custom Jeep track Hawk with a camouflage
- 1:53:10wrap and a large 300 on the sign that he
- 1:53:13was known to own Durk had even posted
- 1:53:15clips of this car to Twitter with the
- 1:53:16caption spin spin Clips which even V
- 1:53:19himself had reposted cops would be seen
- 1:53:21analyzing the scene after the shooting
- 1:53:23and the local news would report on the
- 1:53:24shooting before even becoming aware of
- 1:53:26these famous rappers involvement police
- 1:53:28found several shell casings in this
- 1:53:30parking lot The Varsity was closed at
- 1:53:32the time this happened around 5:45 this
- 1:53:34morning but this club across Spring
- 1:53:37Street was open and one Patron who was
- 1:53:39parked in the varsity lot to go to that
- 1:53:41club told me what he went through the
- 1:53:43man from Chicago who goes by Gutta
- 1:53:45returned to the varsity parking laot
- 1:53:46this afternoon to change the tire and
- 1:53:48assess the damage on his cousin's car
- 1:53:51after it was hit by bullets
- 1:53:53tired
- 1:53:54exhausted wild night I'm just happy I'm
- 1:53:57alive basically so that's really what my
- 1:54:00main focus is he had just paid the cover
- 1:54:02to get into one cigar lounge across
- 1:54:04Spring Street when he heard the shots
- 1:54:06outside around 5:45 a.m. he says people
- 1:54:09hit the floor and he hid in a bathroom
- 1:54:11police say a 23-year-old man was in
- 1:54:13serious condition when he was rushed to
- 1:54:15the hospital after the shooting they are
- 1:54:17now looking for a dark colored SUV they
- 1:54:20are doing anything they can to help
- 1:54:21Atlanta police the afternoon after the
- 1:54:23shooting Von would post up on Twitter
- 1:54:25with a handful of cash and a gun on the
- 1:54:27couch next to him later on posting a
- 1:54:29tweet saying you never know who's going
- 1:54:31to snitch when the cops come then the
- 1:54:33day after the shooting Von would tweet
- 1:54:35asking if you can be a killer and a good
- 1:54:36person too a few days later on February
- 1:54:39the 9th 2019 Von would be seen in the
- 1:54:41background on an Instagram live with
- 1:54:43Asian doll with Von talking to his
- 1:54:45friend on the phone possibly about this
- 1:54:47very shooting he would seemingly be
- 1:54:48telling his friend that he thinks he
- 1:54:50made all of the wrong moves and saying
- 1:54:51that the now watching him now you know I

- 1:56:08ready to catch another body and the day
- 1:56:10after Von jumps on a reckless IG live

- 1:56:53with his rap career without sparing a
- 1:56:54thought to how much self-incrimination
- 1:56:56he was doing to himself at the time on
- 1:56:57February the 28th Von drops a feature on
- 1:57:00dar's Song Gang only where he raps he
- 1:57:02has a lot of bodies even saying that on

- 1:58:50and selling verses to other rappers all
- 1:58:52over the country and making headlines in
- 1:58:53major rap Publications King Von would

- 1:58:57scared to go back to jail and hoping
- 1:58:58that he wasn't making the wrong
- 1:59:00decisions and suggesting that he was
- 1:59:01worried that if he did go back to jail
- 1:59:03all his new friends would leave him
- 1:59:05behind but no matter how far Von got
- 1:59:06into the rap industry he just couldn't

- 2:03:48to disclose it to the Press with reports
- 2:03:50on this incident it to the TV news the
- 2:03:53following day now to a developing story
- 2:03:55of shooting leaves one person Dead four

- 2:04:31ages range from 17 to 20 and the victims
- 2:04:34are all male investigators are trying to
- 2:04:36determine a motive and what happened
- 2:04:38leading up to that shooting after this a
- 2:04:40rumor would circulate suggesting that
- 2:04:41King Von and thf bzu had something to do
- 2:04:43with the shooting however Lil duk would
- 2:04:45tweet never just a couple of hours after
- 2:04:47the body was discovered followed by
- 2:04:49tweeting protect the money at all costs
- 2:04:51the morning after Von would tweet the
- 2:04:53following morning that you can do
- 2:04:54everything right and they're still going
- 2:04:56to find a way to bring you down dissing
- 2:04:57somebody that he doesn't name meanwhile
- 2:04:59another member of their Entourage mimo
- 2:05:01600 would tweet the day after saying
- 2:05:03that people will end up on the news for
- 2:05:05the record there's never been any
- 2:05:06concrete evidence to indicate that Von
- 2:05:08Dirk bzu or any of their Entourage had
- 2:05:11anything to do with this killing and
- 2:05:12Tyreek liver's cousin would actually do
- 2:05:14a YouTube interview saying that he also
- 2:05:16doesn't believe that V had anything to
- 2:05:17do with the killing either you say King
- 2:05:20V kill your cousin that what they saying
- 2:05:22I don't believe but honestly I think
- 2:05:24they be just attaching King named it I
- 2:05:27don't see it I don't see it you know you
- 2:05:31could be with Dirk with all these fancy
- 2:05:34and you know what I'm saying then you
- 2:05:36over there like you know what I'm saying
- 2:05:38then it don't add up it's highly likely
- 2:05:40that this incident had nothing to do
- 2:05:42with Von and Dirk but that didn't stop
- 2:05:43people all over the Internet making King
- 2:05:45Von body count articles and videos
- 2:05:48speculating as to whether King Von was
- 2:05:49responsible for this murder too none of
- 2:05:51this proves Von was involved but what it
- 2:05:53does prove is that even if he wasn't
- 2:05:55involved his reputation as a shooter
- 2:05:57would have the fans and public pointing
- 2:05:59the finger at him regularly but as the
- 2:06:01weeks went by Von would continue to go
- 2:06:02about his life whilst the cops would
- 2:06:04continue building the case related to
- 2:06:06the original shooting at the vity on
- 2:06:08April the 1st the victim in the varsity
- 2:06:09shooting Alexander Weatherspoon would
- 2:06:11end up being booked into a Chicago jail
- 2:06:13on unrelated charges of possession of a
- 2:06:15stolen vehicle it seemed like the police
- 2:06:17were slowly getting closer to having
- 2:06:18something concrete but King Von just
- 2:06:20didn't seem worried about rting the
- 2:06:21attention of the authorities in a social
- 2:06:23media clip uploaded on April the 2nd
- 2:06:252019 King Von recorded himself singing
- 2:06:28in the back of a car with little du
- 2:06:30dissing dead people like DOI and saying
- 2:06:33that they almost killed

- 2:07:39saying his enemies envy him as well as
- 2:07:41tweeting about Can't Get Right being
- 2:07:42killed in the parking lot Von would

- 2:07:49in the varsity shooting on the 10th of
- 2:07:51ail a day before the anniversary of ki's
- 2:07:53Murder King Von would tweet a cryptic
- 2:07:55message asking if the streets could be
- 2:07:57his Valentine saying that they're tired
- 2:07:59of dying then one day after the
- 2:08:01anniversary of ki's death King Von would
- 2:08:03make a Biblical tweet saying God said to
- 2:08:05me out of his own mouth to cut her off
- 2:08:08grandson and Grandson said in Jesus name
- 2:08:11amen Von would even tweet reminding
- 2:08:13people that even though they see him
- 2:08:14having fun on Twitter be careful because
- 2:08:17he's still dangerous in real life he
- 2:08:18would say that he'll do something to
- 2:08:20somebody if they go against him and Von
- 2:08:22would also release a clip apparently
- 2:08:24promoting Lil durk's new cereal dirky o
- 2:08:26telling people to go and buy the cereal
- 2:08:28whilst waving the clip of a gun Von
- 2:08:30would also later tell a woman that he
- 2:08:31comes with the cereal if you ain't order
- 2:08:34no dery that
- 2:08:40you a day later on April the 16th 2019
- 2:08:44Von is on Instagram live mocking woi for
- 2:08:46changing after being shot in the head
- 2:08:48saying that woi doesn't diss them
- 2:08:50anymore he ain't been insane
- 2:08:53he don't talk more nothing I don't what
- 2:08:57the this man
- 2:09:03talk
- 2:09:06his them bullets be
- 2:09:08changing
- 2:09:11man I hope you watching I hope you hear
- 2:09:13it your ass up D that same day he would
- 2:09:16tweet that he doesn't Chase clout he
- 2:09:18actually chases people with guns and
- 2:09:20tweeting that two could died for your
- 2:09:22enjoyment he would even tweet about the
- 2:09:23crimes that he was committing in Atlanta
- 2:09:25saying that he's been doing damage on
- 2:09:26the Chicago Streets since he was young
- 2:09:28and now he's ready to cause problems
- 2:09:29elsewhere # steppers a sentiment that
- 2:09:32apparently Lil Dirk was in full support
- 2:09:34of Dirk was giving vau nothing but
- 2:09:36support during this period he would make
- 2:09:37a cameo in the video for Von's track
- 2:09:39cousins with just below 600 another
- 2:09:41outrageously gangster Anthem where King
- 2:09:43Von WPS that if his Ops aren't outside
- 2:09:45then he will find and kill their cousins
- 2:09:47Instead This is an unbelievable thing to
- 2:09:49rap considering King Von's history of
- 2:09:51killing people and their cousins but the
- 2:09:52track would have some more seemingly
- 2:09:54incriminating lyrics like just blow 600
- 2:09:57rapping that him and Von are popping
- 2:09:58pills riding in the Jeep trackhawk
- 2:10:00looking for Ops and killing people after
- 2:10:03fights Von would rap that his gang's
- 2:10:05body count is 24 and he'd WAP that he
- 2:10:07kills women and men and can't tell the
- 2:10:09difference and Von would even promote
- 2:10:11the video for cousins with a hilarious
- 2:10:13tweet telling fans that if their cousin
- 2:10:14is cool with their Ops to go to their
- 2:10:16Auntie's house right now and kill them
- 2:10:18King Von's first tweet after posting
- 2:10:20that song was warning his Ops what he
- 2:10:21would do to them if he catches them
- 2:10:23without the police around a day after
- 2:10:25that Von posts a picture of himself
- 2:10:26eating cereal and tweeting about having
- 2:10:28killers that want him dead and killers
- 2:10:30that look up to him Von was also feeling
- 2:10:32generous around this time tweeting that
- 2:10:33he had given his mother a Gucci purse
- 2:10:35and $10,000 cash as well as openly
- 2:10:38tweeting that he still robs people Von
- 2:10:40would even reply to a troll who asked
- 2:10:42why he's robbing people when he's a rich
- 2:10:44successful rapper and Von actually
- 2:10:45replied to this saying he robs people
- 2:10:48because he doesn't want to spend his own
- 2:10:49money he wants to spend somebody else's
- 2:10:52but even if he was robbing Von would
- 2:10:53soon have the music money rolling in
- 2:10:55even more Von would begin teasing his
- 2:10:56collaboration with Lil Durk crazy story
- 2:10:582.0 on April 29th then the day after
- 2:11:01this on April 30th Von ends up having a
- 2:11:03funny interaction with a fan who replied
- 2:11:05to L durk's teaser of crazy story 2.0
- 2:11:07saying that she preferred it when King
- 2:11:09Von raps on his own Von would reply to
- 2:11:11this saying the song isn't part two it's
- 2:11:13a version two and the part two of crazy
- 2:11:15story is coming eventually with the girl
- 2:11:16then trolling Von by pleading for him
- 2:11:18not to kill her with Von face paling and
- 2:11:20promising not to kill the woman I mean
- 2:11:22to me this interaction really drives
- 2:11:24home just how absurd it is that you've
- 2:11:25got this celebrity rapper just trying to
- 2:11:27go about his career and release music
- 2:11:29whilst it's widely known that he is a
- 2:11:30hardened killer and people are tweeting
- 2:11:32at him begging him to not kill them too
- 2:11:34but regardless things were going well
- 2:11:36for King Von and crazy story 2.0 with
- 2:11:38Lil Dirk was due to be a hit and it
- 2:11:40seemed like King Von could do with
- 2:11:41another hit because he had apparently
- 2:11:42blown through
- 2:11:44$150,000 by this point encouraging fans
- 2:11:46that they can do it too if they just
- 2:11:48work hard Von would also tweet that
- 2:11:50people talk slick until bullets rip
- 2:11:52through them sadly for Von the good
- 2:11:54times would soon come to an end King Von
- 2:11:55would return to Chicago for a HomeTown
- 2:11:57concert but this would end up being
- 2:11:59cancelled on the day with Von suggesting
- 2:12:01that somebody was out to get him and
- 2:12:02then on May the 4th 2019 footage would
- 2:12:04emerge showing a huge force of over 30
- 2:12:07Chicago police officers raiding oblock
- 2:12:09to arrest King vau with Von himself
- 2:12:11being arrested in dramatic footage where
- 2:12:13he was tackled to the ground with an
- 2:12:15enraged mob of his friends accusing the
- 2:12:17cops of stealing his chain at the scene
- 2:12:19and the cops even had to draw assault
- 2:12:20rifles on the C to keep them at Bay
- 2:12:22whilst they arrested V in addition to
- 2:12:24those clips the full body cam footage of
- 2:12:26King Von's arrest would later be

- 2:15:56after Von's arrest his Furious mug shot

- 2:15:59remain in jail for a significant stretch

- 2:18:56pass but like me moving to Atlanta I

- 2:19:00identity of thinking after Dirk and Von
- 2:19:03were in custody an Atlanta judge
- 2:19:04revealed that they believed that there
- 2:19:05was enough evidence to charge both Durk
- 2:19:07and Von in the attempted murder and Durk
- 2:19:09and Von would be seen in an iconic
- 2:19:11televised court appearance today Little
- 2:19:13Durk appeared in court where a judge
- 2:19:15ruled there was enough evidence for him
- 2:19:16to go to trial the rapper and Bennett

- 2:22:34Von would also be granted a $300,000
- 2:22:37Bond being released on June the 22nd
- 2:22:39confirmed by a tweet of course with V
- 2:22:41jumping on Instagram live fresh home
- 2:22:43from jail and dissing his baby mama but
- 2:22:44not thinking that he would ever be
- 2:22:46getting out I want to shout out
- 2:22:47everybody that was on my dick and
- 2:22:49thought I was coming out Su my dick I
- 2:22:52want to shout out everybody that's
- 2:22:53talking crazy like my baby mama know
- 2:22:54I've been through
- 2:22:56some hey hey last call me a ho I smack
- 2:22:59the out Von would go from jail straight
- 2:23:01onto house arrest opening up about his
- 2:23:03situation on Instagram live I ain't got
- 2:23:05no good shout out I can't hear
- 2:23:09D I'll be back later part of the bail
- 2:23:11conditions were that Durk and Von could
- 2:23:13not be around each other as king Von
- 2:23:15would later reveal in a no jumper
- 2:23:16interview yeah so yeah we me and DK we a
- 2:23:18we only see each other like at court if
- 2:23:19we got CT but Von and Durk would still
- 2:23:22be releasing music together on July the
- 2:23:239th 2019 Von and Durk released their
- 2:23:26latest collab track like that and
- 2:23:27despite their legal troubles Von was
- 2:23:29still dropping lyrics hinting towards
- 2:23:31having killed Ki and dissing Tuka it's
- 2:23:33actually crazy to me that even whilst
- 2:23:35facing serious charges of attempted
- 2:23:37murder both King Von and l Durk would
- 2:23:39continue to rap about such true
- 2:23:41criminality L durk's experiment in
- 2:23:43taking the realist gang banger from his
- 2:23:44block and turning him into a drill
- 2:23:46rapper was going too far and
- 2:23:48jeopardizing his own career it was only
- 2:23:49years later after Von's death that those
- 2:23:51charges against Lil Dirk for the varsity
- 2:23:53shooting were eventually dropped with
- 2:23:55the district attorney saying that if
- 2:23:56King Von was still alive he likely would
- 2:23:58have still been charged and facing trial
- 2:24:00for attempted murder but in the end
- 2:24:02whilst he was alive King Von would face
- 2:24:03no real consequences for his involvement
- 2:24:05in this supposed shooting in fact Von
- 2:24:07would bail out from these charges and
- 2:24:09continue his career not even choosing to
- 2:24:11keep a low profile either in fact even
- 2:24:13with the scrutiny of the police in two
- 2:24:15states Von would go on to have one of
- 2:24:16the most successful runs in the rap game
- 2:24:18dropping song after song of VI drill
- 2:24:20anthems with the entire world following
- 2:24:23along and wondering how this multiple
- 2:24:25murderer just kept getting away with
- 2:24:30it once the hip-hop world saw King vau
- 2:24:33next to Little Durk in the courtroom in
- 2:24:35shackles he quickly gained a reputation
- 2:24:38as one of the realest street rappers in
- 2:24:40the rap game for some people seeing Von
- 2:24:42in court with Dirk one of the most
- 2:24:43famous rappers in Chicago History was
- 2:24:45their first introduction to him however
- 2:24:47for anybody that looked closer into his
- 2:24:49history discovering the murder case that
- 2:24:51he beat or as many as seven people he
- 2:24:53was rumored to have killed they would be
- 2:24:55easily convinced that King Von might
- 2:24:57just be one of the most deadly and
- 2:24:59dangerous people to ever pick up a
- 2:25:01microphone and King Von wasn't just a
- 2:25:02killer who had gotten away with his
- 2:25:03terrible crimes but he was seemingly
- 2:25:05willing to RP about them for the whole
- 2:25:07world to hear Von's next release after
- 2:25:09getting arrested with Dirk would be his
- 2:25:11May 30th 2019 feature on Izzy blat song
- 2:25:14straight facts with this track being yet
- 2:25:16another self-incrimination Fest Von raps
- 2:25:18on the song that he used to do murder
- 2:25:20for higher and he says that he shoots
- 2:25:22people in the face and is 7 to one on
- 2:25:25beating murder cases Von even ended the
- 2:25:27song saying that the last person that
- 2:25:29came to his street got killed with
- 2:25:31lyrical content this dark violent and
- 2:25:33frankly self-incriminating it's hard to
- 2:25:35believe that King Von would go on to
- 2:25:37achieve mainstream success in the rap
- 2:25:38game but his music was undeniably good
- 2:25:41despite the murderous messages behind it
- 2:25:43he genuinely had a talent for taking
- 2:25:44these dark experiences he'd had in the
- 2:25:46streets and making them into songs that
- 2:25:48painted a vivid picture and so
- 2:25:50celebrities would soon begin discovering
- 2:25:51his music and promoting it without a
- 2:25:53full appreciation of the stories behind
- 2:25:55the songs Von would end up getting a
- 2:25:57huge career boost when basketball Star
- 2:25:59LeBron james' son bronny would jam out
- 2:26:02to Von's original Anthem crazy story
- 2:26:04with bronny even passing Von's music to
- 2:26:06his father who reportedly would end up
- 2:26:08becoming a fan of playing Von's music
- 2:26:10during his workouts while Von spent
- 2:26:12close to 2 months in jail in connection
- 2:26:14for the attempted murder in Atlanta he
- 2:26:15would spend some of that time Behind
- 2:26:17Bars writing some of the biggest songs
- 2:26:19of his career and when he got out he
- 2:26:21would go on the Run of a lifetime taking
- 2:26:22over the rap game with his new songs and
- 2:26:24buzzing reputation as a real shooter
- 2:26:26priming fans for the upcoming release of
- 2:26:28his debut mixtape grandson volume 1 Von
- 2:26:31promoted it with an Instagram post
- 2:26:33pondering if the people he killed
- 2:26:35Spirits follow him around until he dies
- 2:26:38and also tweeting that by the time
- 2:26:39people work out what he's done it will
- 2:26:41be too late and his mixtape will be out
- 2:26:43the tape's lead single what it's like
- 2:26:45dropped on September the 2nd 2019 and
- 2:26:47the music video for that song Would
- 2:26:49feature that video of his Ops saying
- 2:26:51that he was responsible for the killing
- 2:26:52of can't get right as well as footage
- 2:26:54from his arrest in oblock and courtroom
- 2:26:56footage from the Atlanta case with Lil
- 2:26:57Durk This song is an introspective and
- 2:26:59deep track about what it's really like
- 2:27:02living the gang life in Chicago Von
- 2:27:03would rrap about getting to jail and
- 2:27:05being given knives to defend himself Ops
- 2:27:07trying to work out who killed their
- 2:27:08friends and rapping that when he was in
- 2:27:10jail he caught somebody who killed one
- 2:27:12of his friends and beat them up even
- 2:27:14saying that he was in jail with D Rose
- 2:27:16that same shooter who was allegedly at
- 2:27:18the scene of the little Mark murder with
- 2:27:19Von red that he was there in a cell when
- 2:27:21D Rose got sentenced to 40 years in
- 2:27:23prison for a 2014 murder of a teenager
- 2:27:26with Von rapping that witnessing D Rose
- 2:27:27get sentenc to all of these years really
- 2:27:30hurt his soul Von would end that song
- 2:27:31with a heartfelt outro saying that the
- 2:27:33same cops that locked up his friends D
- 2:27:35Rose C day and Rondo number n told him
- 2:27:37that they were out to get him too after
- 2:27:39he caught his murder in 2014 Von said
- 2:27:41that the cops were trying to catch him
- 2:27:42and his friends like it was a game but
- 2:27:44really this was just Von taunting those
- 2:27:46cops who were never able to catch him
- 2:27:48for the things he'd allegedly done
- 2:27:49ironically just the day after dropping a
- 2:27:51song about the cops trying to arrest him
- 2:27:53the cops would arrest Von for battery on
- 2:27:55September the 3rd 2019 after apparently
- 2:27:57beating up a man who called his
- 2:27:59girlfriend Asian doll a [ __ ] in the
- 2:28:01studio with v admitting openly on
- 2:28:03Instagram live that he just beat
- 2:28:04somebody up for his girlfriend somebody
- 2:28:06called my girlfriend today tell what
- 2:28:09happened to my hand bro over beat his
- 2:28:11ass Von would be in jail and not posting
- 2:28:13to his own Twitter account for just over
- 2:28:15a month but while he was inside his
- 2:28:17music kept on releasing all in the lead
- 2:28:18up to his grandson volume one mixtape on
- 2:28:21September the 10th 2019 Von would appear
- 2:28:23on a song called for a fact with another
- 2:28:25rapper called Sim Santana and on this
- 2:28:27song Von would rap that he's killed and
- 2:28:29would do it again as well as a lyric
- 2:28:30where he says that all of his bodies are
- 2:28:32head shot and that tweeting about the
- 2:28:34murders has attracted the attention of
- 2:28:36the cops as well as lines about catching
- 2:28:37Ops and killing them by bus stops
- 2:28:39seemingly a reference to the death of
- 2:28:41little Mark but it would be 3 days later
- 2:28:43when Von would bless the fans with the
- 2:28:45song that they had been truly waiting
- 2:28:46for as crazy story part three was
- 2:28:48finally released this was another op
- 2:28:50shooting storytelling Anthem and the
- 2:28:52most significant release leading up to
- 2:28:53September 19 when his grandson volume 1
- 2:28:56mixtape would come out this was a
- 2:28:57roaring debut for Von with the project
- 2:28:59landing at number 75 on the billboard
- 2:29:01200 and this project had some crazy song
- 2:29:03Concepts like the track F your man which
- 2:29:05is a love song where Von raps about
- 2:29:07seducing a woman with a boyfriend and
- 2:29:09vowing to kill him for her along with
- 2:29:11numerous lyrics about killing Ops and
- 2:29:13catching bodies as well as shooting up
- 2:29:15funerals she also had another song with
- 2:29:16L Dirk called twinm where Dirk says that
- 2:29:18Von shoots people and that they got
- 2:29:20caught shooting on camera with no masks
- 2:29:22on seemingly a reference to their
- 2:29:24Atlanta shooting case Von WS outright
- 2:29:26that he tries to kill people ironically
- 2:29:28saying that he can't speak on what he's
- 2:29:30doing because the feds are watching him
- 2:29:31you know whilst rapping about what he's
- 2:29:33doing on his billboard charting mixtape
- 2:29:35he also had the pop rap love song no
- 2:29:37flaws where he sings to a woman about
- 2:29:39how dangerous and handsome he is he also
- 2:29:41had a song Mama's Boy where he says that
- 2:29:43his mother is who raised him into the
- 2:29:44robbing Savage that he is today he also
- 2:29:46references beating up KI on the train on
- 2:29:48this song Von was put putting out a lot
- 2:29:50of bold statements on this project and
- 2:29:52surprisingly with all of this coming out
- 2:29:54whilst he was still behind bars
- 2:29:56eventually V would get out of jail on
- 2:29:57October the 10th 2019 being released and
- 2:29:59returning to Twitter immediately
- 2:30:01continuing to push and promote his new
- 2:30:03mixtape as well as announcing that he
- 2:30:04would be going on tour to perform his
- 2:30:06new hits live and Von would go on to
- 2:30:08play huge shows with his fans going
- 2:30:10crazy and he would waste no time
- 2:30:11beginning to tease new music soon after
- 2:30:13his mixt tape dropped specifically the
- 2:30:15first single of his next project titled
- 2:30:172 a.m. a song where Von wrapped the
- 2:30:19Brazen can't put no more guns in my
- 2:30:21videos cuz the ATF and DEA know they
- 2:30:24ain't props and after this release Von
- 2:30:26would claimed to be receiving
- 2:30:27multi-million record deal offers but
- 2:30:29while Von was getting more and more
- 2:30:30famous so too were the rumors of him
- 2:30:32being a real killer and his
- 2:30:34incriminating lyrics weren't helping
- 2:30:35matters either during this period it
- 2:30:37seemed like Von would simultaneously be
- 2:30:38claiming to have really done all of
- 2:30:40these murders in his music but then at
- 2:30:42other times being desperately trying to
- 2:30:44convince his following that he never did
- 2:30:46anything on his November 29th release
- 2:30:48the song roll in with fellow rapper
- 2:30:50accused double murderer y andw Melly Von
- 2:30:52would rap that he has killed so many
- 2:30:53people they should call him Rambo and
- 2:30:55saying I did it but it wasn't me which
- 2:30:58perfectly sums up his attitude during
- 2:30:59this time jumping on songs and saying
- 2:31:01over and over again that he really is
- 2:31:03the killer they say he is and then
- 2:31:04jumping on Twitter to say that he would
- 2:31:06never do anything like the rumors say he
- 2:31:08did he would tweet after this release
- 2:31:09saying that somebody is trying to send
- 2:31:11him to jail every day and in December
- 2:31:13Von would appear prominently on Lil
- 2:31:14durk's family over everything
- 2:31:16compilation album for his OTF record
- 2:31:18label with the front cover of this
- 2:31:20project ironically resembling a suspect
- 2:31:22board for criminal investigation with
- 2:31:24Von positioned as an under boss under
- 2:31:26Lil Dirk I honestly wouldn't be
- 2:31:27surprised if the feds just downloaded
- 2:31:29this image and added it to the case File
- 2:31:30but a few days later on December the
- 2:31:3114th 2019 Von does a post on social
- 2:31:34media saying that he is all these dead
- 2:31:36people want to talk about in heaven Rest
- 2:31:38in Piss to the goofies I wouldn't be the
- 2:31:41Savage I am today if it wasn't for y'all
- 2:31:43it seemed like Von was really getting
- 2:31:44more and more comfortable saying that he
- 2:31:46was a killer publicly the following week
- 2:31:48on December the 21st 19 Von does a
- 2:31:50feature for the r a little loaded where
- 2:31:52he raps that he put that boy in a box
- 2:31:54but not long after this song dropped Von
- 2:31:56would go live on Instagram in the car
- 2:31:57telling fans that he has bodies and even
- 2:31:59going as far as to ask them to guess how
- 2:32:02many people he's killed and asking the
- 2:32:04fans if they think that it's more than
- 2:32:06five bodies and even seemingly swearing
- 2:32:08on OD Perry's life that he has killed
- 2:32:11more than five
- 2:32:13people and I got a lot of tell them I
- 2:32:15got a lot BJ they know just three how

- 2:33:13d v was either feeling Invincible or
- 2:33:16just being completely Reckless he would
- 2:33:18tweet a couple of days after Christmas
- 2:33:192019 beat the odds time and time again
- 2:33:22without doing no funny stuff stay in 10
- 2:33:24toes I done chased and beat up the guys

- 2:33:28I got fans all over the states one of
- 2:33:30the realest and roest people you'll ever
- 2:33:32meet you're welcome as well as saying F
- 2:33:34his Dead Ops going into 2020 Von was
- 2:33:36still winning tweeting that it now costs
- 2:33:38$20,000 to book him for a show and then
- 2:33:40announcing a huge booking opening for G
- 2:33:42herbo on his PTSD tour clearly stacking
- 2:33:45that paper in February Von was going
- 2:33:47live in the bank making a large deposit
- 2:33:49impressive the bank manager
- 2:33:52crazy what's up you good theyed a
- 2:34:02nobody nobody safe but soon Von's bank
- 2:34:05account was about to go to the next
- 2:34:06level because at the end of February he
- 2:34:08would release one of the biggest songs
- 2:34:09of his career his hit track took her to
- 2:34:11the O another storytelling type track
- 2:34:14with a catchy chorus where Von shouts
- 2:34:15out oblock but this time it wasn't some
- 2:34:18random madeup story this was a song All
- 2:34:20About Him meeting a woman who leads him
- 2:34:21to his rival from tuille turned rapper
- 2:34:24FBG Duck Von ends the song saying that
- 2:34:26he shoots duck literally rapping that he
- 2:34:28killed him and left him on the curb with
- 2:34:31this supposedly fictional FBG Duck
- 2:34:33murder scenario being reenacted in the
- 2:34:35music video of the song Too the day that
- 2:34:36Von released the video he would tweet
- 2:34:38saying that everything he says in his
- 2:34:40music is made up and that he's just
- 2:34:42rapping to make money for his family and
- 2:34:44I'll be honest I believe this is where
- 2:34:45we see Von's Psychopathic Tendencies
- 2:34:47really shining not only had he seeming
- 2:34:49killed people and occasionally attempted
- 2:34:51to deny it on Twitter but this time he
- 2:34:53had actually made a whole song and an
- 2:34:55entire narrative music video about him
- 2:34:58personally killing FBG Duck this is
- 2:35:00someone he had openly been embroiled in
- 2:35:02a deadly Feud for around a decade with
- 2:35:04at this point Von was literally making
- 2:35:06videos telling the story of how he was
- 2:35:08going to kill FBG Duck all while
- 2:35:10claiming on Twitter that his lyrics were
- 2:35:11just entertainment but apparently they
- 2:35:13weren't because allegedly behind the
- 2:35:14scenes Von had put $100,000 of his
- 2:35:17hard-earned rap money up as a bounty on
- 2:35:19FBG duck's head this is the kind of
- 2:35:21behavior that makes me feel King Von
- 2:35:23really was a serial killer because no
- 2:35:24amount of success in the rap game was
- 2:35:26enough for him to stop killing people
- 2:35:28instead his compulsion to kill or at
- 2:35:29least to commission killings was just
- 2:35:31too strong he would continue to
- 2:35:32allegedly use his resources to have
- 2:35:34people killed behind the scenes all
- 2:35:36while attempting to maintain a somewhat
- 2:35:38clean Public Image despite all of the
- 2:35:40music that he was releasing celebrating
- 2:35:42murder the video for took her to the O
- 2:35:43would get 1 million views in 24 hours
- 2:35:46and at this point Von was really one of
- 2:35:47the hottest prospects in the rap game
- 2:35:49and fans would be hungry for his next
- 2:35:51full length release which came on March
- 2:35:53the 6th 2020 when he dropped his new
- 2:35:55mixtape leavon James named after the
- 2:35:57famed NBA legend LeBron James who had
- 2:35:59become a fan of Von's music along with
- 2:36:01his son and Von would troll his Ops by
- 2:36:03even purchasing a promotional billboard
- 2:36:05for the project on 63rd as well as
- 2:36:07releasing not from 63rd merchandise
- 2:36:10unfortunately for Von however the
- 2:36:12project itself would end up debing
- 2:36:14precisely at number 63rd on the
- 2:36:16Billboard charts sometimes I see stuff
- 2:36:18like this and I just feel like must have
- 2:36:19been God just making fun of V for all
- 2:36:21the bad things he did in his life cuz
- 2:36:23this was his biggest career achievement
- 2:36:25but you know he must have been Furious
- 2:36:26to have ended up charting at the one
- 2:36:28number that he despises and Von would
- 2:36:30never even publicly acknowledge or tweet
- 2:36:32the chart performance of this mixtape
- 2:36:34probably for that reason that it went
- 2:36:3663rd but landing at 63rd on Billboard
- 2:36:39was still a great performance for a
- 2:36:41relatively new artist with such violent
- 2:36:43and raw content the project itself would
- 2:36:45be laced with more aggressive drill
- 2:36:47anthems like the track down me with Lil
- 2:36:49Durk with Von RS about getting doctors
- 2:36:51to bring people back to life so he can
- 2:36:53kill them again and killing so many Ops
- 2:36:55that the surviving ones don't have any
- 2:36:56friends left there would also be the
- 2:36:58song broke Ops where he seemed to
- 2:37:00reference calling for the hit on can't
- 2:37:01get right then there was the track don't
- 2:37:03want to be me where Von explains that
- 2:37:05his mindset growing up had to be either
- 2:37:07him or me he'd reminisce on hearing
- 2:37:08gunshots the night he moved into oock as
- 2:37:10a child and his experience growing up
- 2:37:12around killers and criminals and having
- 2:37:14to fight every day he would rap about
- 2:37:16being devastated at the loss of his
- 2:37:18right-hand man Troy and and explaining
- 2:37:20how losing sheroid OD and patoon turned
- 2:37:22him into a killer in 2012 ultimately
- 2:37:24describing the Gory details of the
- 2:37:26bloody couple of months of killing that
- 2:37:28he was allegedly involved in in 2014 and
- 2:37:30during this time Von also began to post
- 2:37:32pictures of his friends from oblock
- 2:37:34hosing with large wads of cash and
- 2:37:36referring to them as get back gang
- 2:37:38entertainment further blurring the lines
- 2:37:40between the music and the real gang
- 2:37:42killing people in the streets a week
- 2:37:44later Von would appear on his girlfriend
- 2:37:46Asian dolls song pull up a track with
- 2:37:48jaw-dropping lyrics where Von claimed to
- 2:37:50have killed seven people in total at
- 2:37:52this point saying that if he catches
- 2:37:53three more he's at double digits a day
- 2:37:55after that released Von would tweet that
- 2:37:57girls hook up with him just so that they
- 2:37:59can say that they were with a killer
- 2:38:01next he appeared on the song Get Back
- 2:38:02mode with oblock veteran boss top where
- 2:38:05he wrapped that he was stacking up
- 2:38:06bodies like Tetris all of these murder
- 2:38:08anthems were doing numbers and the money
- 2:38:10was rolling in for Von he would graduate
- 2:38:11from buying his mother Gucci purses soon
- 2:38:13flexing on Twitter that he had just
- 2:38:15bought her a brand new Mercedes and
- 2:38:17large Suburban home Von's career was
- 2:38:19going from strength to strength and he
- 2:38:21was showing no signs of letting up on
- 2:38:23April the 29th 2020 he would drop his
- 2:38:25new single grandson for President coming
- 2:38:27with lyrics where he says that they're
- 2:38:28trying to blame him for all the unsolved
- 2:38:30murders in his City he'd rap that he's
- 2:38:32trying to kill all of the Ops and he
- 2:38:33would end his verse saying that he could
- 2:38:35kill you by rapping on the beat or by
- 2:38:37shooting you in the street and Von would
- 2:38:39promote the music video for this song on
- 2:38:40Instagram adding a caption with seven
- 2:38:42skulls asking people how many they have
- 2:38:45sparking speculation that this was him
- 2:38:47cryptically telling the world once again
- 2:38:49that he had killed seven people to
- 2:38:51promote this song A few days later he
- 2:38:53appeared on the song body count with
- 2:38:54Mozzy and G herbo rapping that if you
- 2:38:56have a few bodies everyone will know a
- 2:38:58couple of days later Von would tweet
- 2:39:00that he can't get a job now because he
- 2:39:02has more bodies than t a teenage rapper
- 2:39:05who got 55 years for murder Von would
- 2:39:07also tweet that he's done more hits than
- 2:39:08made hit songs and then on May the 21st
- 2:39:112020 a vlog was released which showed
- 2:39:13Von going back to oock AKA Parkway
- 2:39:15Gardens to hand out WS of cash to his
- 2:39:17gang and it would later emerge that Von
- 2:39:19was providing drugs and guns to his old
- 2:39:21hood and splitting the rewards with his
- 2:39:22crew providing them with jewelry and
- 2:39:24luxury vacations in exchange for their
- 2:39:26work in the streets Von clearly didn't
- 2:39:28care about broadcasting his activities
- 2:39:30to the world and eventually people began
- 2:39:32to take notice on May the 22nd YouTuber
- 2:39:34trap geek releases an iconic video on
- 2:39:36King Von titled the soft spoken assassin
- 2:39:39this video essentially broke down Von's
- 2:39:41violent past and his rise to the top of
- 2:39:43the rap game one murder of a kid named
- 2:39:45Modell allegedly according to the
- 2:39:48internet detectives on
- 2:39:49has King Von's name written all over it
- 2:39:52and V didn't seem to initially
- 2:39:53appreciate the attention tweeting that
- 2:39:55the videos these white people are all
- 2:39:56making about him aren't true and calling
- 2:39:58them the cops or 12 however a month
- 2:40:01later Von seemed to have a change of
- 2:40:02heart and he would actually begin to use
- 2:40:04that nickname that trap geek gave him as
- 2:40:06a caption on his Instagram declaring
- 2:40:08himself to be a softspoken assassin 2
- 2:40:11Days Later Von tweeted that he still has
- 2:40:13people on his list presumably referring
- 2:40:15to a list of people he still wants to
- 2:40:17kill and it seems that the biggest name
- 2:40:18at the very top of that list was FBG
- 2:40:21Duck Von had been going back and forth
- 2:40:22with duck since high school and had a
- 2:40:24yearl long grudge against him he'd had a
- 2:40:26Twitter exchange with duck the day
- 2:40:27before he' allegedly killed Ki who was a
- 2:40:30close friend of ducks an exchange where
- 2:40:31Von said that he was also looking for
- 2:40:33duck in fact a couple of months after
- 2:40:35King Von had released the music video
- 2:40:36for took her to the O that video where
- 2:40:38he played out his fantasy of killing
- 2:40:40duck duck would go live saying that he
- 2:40:42beat up Von on the school bus back in
- 2:40:44the day beat your ass on the bus on Doc
- 2:40:47would also tell V that his only famous
- 2:40:49because of little du you come up under
- 2:40:51Dirk when y'all get men y'all get men as
- 2:40:56little Dirk homies but here's where
- 2:40:57things get chilly because as dark
- 2:40:59continues to mock Von in what seems to
- 2:41:01be a disrespectful but at least not
- 2:41:02entirely death threatening way Von would
- 2:41:04pop up following along live and
- 2:41:06demonically commenting on Duck's
- 2:41:08Instagram names of people that getb back
- 2:41:10gang had seemingly killed and continuing
- 2:41:11to insult him throughout the entire life
- 2:41:14it seemed like Von was plotting on
- 2:41:15having duck killed for years in November
- 2:41:172018 King Von would be on live
- 2:41:19apparently in L du's Atlanta home
- 2:41:21expressing his desire to see FBG Duck
- 2:41:23dead saying that he would perform at his
- 2:41:24funeral whilst eating some cereal yeah
- 2:41:27Ser be B
- 2:41:30show they said King B featuring FBG
- 2:41:34Duck say that's what they want to see
- 2:41:36stop that
- 2:41:38man I'll perform at his funeral we now
- 2:41:41know that Von had allegedly put up a
- 2:41:43$100,000 bounty on FBG duck's head and
- 2:41:45funnily enough Von tweeted throughout
- 2:41:47his career that his main goal was simply
- 2:41:49to make $100,000 and when Von was
- 2:41:52Finally Rich less than a month before
- 2:41:53duck was killed he would tweet Von got
- 2:41:56the money so Von going to pay it to his
- 2:41:57brothers and he would also later rap on
- 2:41:59the song Me and dudy low that he gave
- 2:42:01out 100 so you can bet that they're
- 2:42:03coming in July 2020 Von would also show
- 2:42:06off O Block chains that he had purchased
- 2:42:07for his friends from the famous hip-hop
- 2:42:09jewelry store ice box something that we
- 2:42:11now know may well have been an incentive
- 2:42:13provided to Von Shooters to continue to
- 2:42:15catch bodies for him and soon we would
- 2:42:17see the tragic reality of this situation
- 2:42:19playing out on the streets of Chicago in
- 2:42:20real time on the afternoon of August the
- 2:42:224th 2020 FBG Duck is shopping in the
- 2:42:25Gold Coast a place that's been described
- 2:42:27as the Rodeo Drive of Chicago a high-end
- 2:42:29and high-profile tourist shopping
- 2:42:31district after being given Duck's
- 2:42:32location six shooters were sent from
- 2:42:34oblock to kill him they were Charles
- 2:42:36liins AKA C murder to Carlos offord AKA
- 2:42:39Los Muna Marcus Smart AKA muwop
- 2:42:41Christopher Thomas AKA seang Kenneth
- 2:42:44Robertson AKA Kenny Mack and zel Muna
- 2:42:47after being provided with his location
- 2:42:48two Vehicles end up 30 minutes away from
- 2:42:50oblock pulling up to the location where
- 2:42:52duck had been shopping then at about
- 2:42:544:37 p.m. duck would be confronted
- 2:42:56outside of the doang gabana store by a
- 2:42:58group of masked individuals hopping out
- 2:43:00of two cars and opening fire on Duck in
- 2:43:02broad daylight a man and a woman who was
- 2:43:04standing with duck at the time of the
- 2:43:05shooting were both injured but
- 2:43:07fortunately survived and someone would
- 2:43:08even post a 12-minute video depicting
- 2:43:10the crime scene immediately after Duck's
- 2:43:12death with duck being seen writhing in
- 2:43:14pain on the ground in the final moments
- 2:43:16of his life once again this situation
- 2:43:18just drives home the the destruction
- 2:43:19these killers were so willing to inflict
- 2:43:21on the streets that they lived in and to
- 2:43:23the fellow citizens who live there with
- 2:43:24them I'm in the Gold Coast right now
- 2:43:26they shot FBG Duck man I don't know who
- 2:43:28shot him man I just ran into this y'all
- 2:43:33man they shooting in the goost of
- 2:43:35Chicago bro Chicago is not a safe place
- 2:43:38to be you cannot even go downtown and
- 2:43:41enjoy your day without violence bro look
- 2:43:43at this bro look at this bro that's a
- 2:43:46Chicago Rapper Man by the name of FBG
- 2:43:48Duck after Duck's passing this Brazen
- 2:43:50broad daylight hit would make
- 2:43:52international news with reporters
- 2:43:53comparing the killing to a Chicago mob
- 2:43:55boss hit from the 30s on August 4th 2020
- 2:43:59it looked like an oldtime outfit attack
- 2:44:01here on Chicago's Oak Street two attack
- 2:44:03cars four Shooters and a hail of bullets
- 2:44:06but the target wasn't a 1930s gangster
- 2:44:09he was a new millennium rapper FBG Duck
- 2:44:12it would appear that only 7 minutes
- 2:44:13after the killing of FBG Duck King Von
- 2:44:15would tweet a goat Emoji seemingly
- 2:44:17congratulating himself for Pulling off a
- 2:44:19hit that he had wanted to do for more
- 2:44:20than 10 years this was quite possibly
- 2:44:22the ninth murder that King Von was
- 2:44:24responsible for and the 11th that he had
- 2:44:26allegedly been connected to and perhaps
- 2:44:28V soon realized that he shouldn't be
- 2:44:30celebrating this one too hard cuz the
- 2:44:31following day he would tweet denying
- 2:44:33being involved and saying that everybody
- 2:44:35blames him Von would later tweet that
- 2:44:37him and duck settled their differences
- 2:44:38before his death suggesting that they
- 2:44:40were even going to make a song together
- 2:44:42this to me seems like an obvious lie
- 2:44:44once again showcasing the psychopathic
- 2:44:46tendencies that King Von had when it
- 2:44:47came to killing in public public he
- 2:44:49would say anything he could to take the
- 2:44:51heat off himself and appear Innocent but
- 2:44:52behind closed doors he had allegedly
- 2:44:54plotted paid for and was celebrating
- 2:44:56Duck's murder Von and other oblock
- 2:44:58Affiliates would go on to release song
- 2:45:00after song referencing the murder of
- 2:45:01duck the day after Duck's death King Von
- 2:45:03and Dirk dropped their new song all
- 2:45:05these nword a track which doesn't have
- 2:45:07any specific lyrics pertaining to duck
- 2:45:08but in it Von would rap about having
- 2:45:10bodies from way back and the song's
- 2:45:12release essentially served as a victory
- 2:45:14LP for Von Durk and anyone else who
- 2:45:16would have been happy about Duck's
- 2:45:17demise OTF Duty low would reference
- 2:45:19people getting killed while shopping on
- 2:45:21the song Me and dudy L with King Von
- 2:45:23with King Von saying outright on the
- 2:45:25track that he gave out 100,000 and sent
- 2:45:27his boy coming as well as saying that
- 2:45:29somebody got left shot in public before
- 2:45:31being rushed to the hospital with these
- 2:45:32four lines of rapping Von essentially
- 2:45:34broke down the entire hit and the price
- 2:45:36he'd allegedly paid for it to happen Von
- 2:45:38would also rap on the song don't miss
- 2:45:39with DQ that duck got nailed no hammers
- 2:45:42as well as lyrics that seemingly refer
- 2:45:44to the funeral shooting and the killings
- 2:45:46of Modell and doc on the posst humously
- 2:45:48released track sham remix with boss toop
- 2:45:50Von would also rap that he's ducking no
- 2:45:52beef and even Lil duck would later
- 2:45:53release the song should have ducked
- 2:45:55dissing FBG Duck and saying that he's
- 2:45:57smoking him Lil duck would take things
- 2:45:58to the next level even joking with
- 2:46:00country music star and collaborator
- 2:46:02Morgan Wallen that he loved duck hunting
- 2:46:04this would lead to Wallen posting duck
- 2:46:06emojis on durk's post and later being
- 2:46:08forced to apologize after being informed
- 2:46:10that he'd actually been tricked into
- 2:46:11dissing L durk's Dead Ops after FBG Duck
- 2:46:14was killed it seemed like King Von and
- 2:46:15his team truly felt invincible and
- 2:46:17pretty much from here until the day he
- 2:46:19died King Von didn't seem to care who
- 2:46:21knew about the killings he was allegedly
- 2:46:22responsible for in his music and on
- 2:46:24social media he would troll endlessly
- 2:46:26and hint towards him and his friends
- 2:46:28being real killers seemingly oblivious
- 2:46:30or just not caring that the whole world
- 2:46:32was beginning to learn what he had done
- 2:46:34in August von is on Instagram live with
- 2:46:36DQ from oock saying that there's no more
- 2:46:38FBG all that saying something or even
- 2:46:42acting like y with that y know for sure

- 2:46:55FB ain't that right Big
- 2:46:57D ain't that

- 2:47:05the police have his phone tapped and
- 2:47:06that all they'll find out is that he
- 2:47:08gives people money every day money for
- 2:47:10what though Von Von would also go on to
- 2:47:12tweet that 63r was no more and another
- 2:47:14saying you heard what they say I did but
- 2:47:17I did worse indicating that V had done
- 2:47:19even more crimes that the public didn't
- 2:47:21know about after this we would see one
- 2:47:23famous example of King Von's crimes
- 2:47:24catching up with him in the music
- 2:47:26industry he had actually been booked to
- 2:47:27perform at rap music festival rolling
- 2:47:29loud in 2020 however the pandemic of
- 2:47:312020 would shut that down and see the
- 2:47:34Festival unable to go ahead in person so
- 2:47:36instead rolling loud would end up
- 2:47:37hosting a digital live stream event with
- 2:47:39rappers in September of 2020 and as part
- 2:47:41of this event King Von would be
- 2:47:43interviewed in a shocking segment where
- 2:47:44the hosts were asking him questions that
- 2:47:46had been sent in from the comments with
- 2:47:48some bright shch submitting a question
- 2:47:51to the unsuspecting hosts who would read
- 2:47:53it asking Von if he would ever collab
- 2:47:55with names of people he was rumor to
- 2:47:57have killed with Von even being so
- 2:47:58amused by this question bringing up his
- 2:48:00old bodies he would even go and find his
- 2:48:02trusty shooter muwop putting his face on

- 2:48:06clueless interviewers dissing their dead

- 2:53:21realize that the whole world was

- 2:53:24tweet saying that he would be ready to
- 2:53:25drop soon and asking fans what they want
- 2:53:27him to drop a song or an OP then on the
- 2:53:304th of October another Instagram live of

- 2:54:00lyrics seemingly referencing the murder

- 2:54:06everything people say they did in the
- 2:54:07streets and in Von's case getting away
- 2:54:09with it then on October the 14th 2020
- 2:54:12Von releases a song called slide with
- 2:54:14another rapper called yakola this song
- 2:54:16is a reinterpretation of FBG dark own
- 2:54:18hit song of the same name slide but of
- 2:54:21course Von would use his version of

- 2:54:24would tweet the word duck with a love
- 2:54:26heart and a picture of himself ducking
- 2:54:28his head down clearly all of Von's
- 2:54:30Brazen activities in the streets and
- 2:54:32online were indeed making him the target
- 2:54:34of an investigation because also in
- 2:54:35October Von is at the airport when he
- 2:54:37was seen on social media being searched

- 2:55:29Instagram even tagging Superstar hip-hop
- 2:55:31lawyer Drew findling who also defended
- 2:55:33Donald Trump but clearly Von wasn't
- 2:55:35worried because the same day that
- 2:55:37footage was going around he would also
- 2:55:38tweet that he has bodies from way back
- 2:55:40perhaps taunting those very cops who
- 2:55:42were stopping him at the airport trying
- 2:55:44to solve these murders around this time
- 2:55:45King Von would also do an interview
- 2:55:47where he seemed to suggest that he was
- 2:55:48making the most of his career because he
- 2:55:50knew the cops would eventually work out
- 2:55:52what he'd done and put him away I'm
- 2:55:53trying to go crazy real quick but
- 2:55:57a what but not one to let some meddling
- 2:55:59cops get in the way of his booming rap
- 2:56:01career a couple of days later Von would
- 2:56:03drop his debut studio album welcome to
- 2:56:06oblock on October the 30th 2020 a date
- 2:56:08which coincidentally was the anniversary
- 2:56:10of T Roy's birthday and the murder of P5
- 2:56:13welcome to oblock had some bold songs
- 2:56:15where Von would hint further at the
- 2:56:17crimes he' allegedly committed it and
- 2:56:18ironically the very first lyric of that
- 2:56:20album would see Von admitting that the
- 2:56:22cops are onto him by this point Von's
- 2:56:24lyricism was the sharpest it had ever
- 2:56:26been and he really did have a talent for
- 2:56:28using music to communicate the dark
- 2:56:30reality behind the life that he had
- 2:56:31lived another line on that opening track
- 2:56:33armed and dangerous really stuck out to
- 2:56:35me where Von WPS that he has inflicted
- 2:56:37tragedies massacres and casualties on
- 2:56:39his Ops admitting that he did a lot of
- 2:56:41things to people that he can't remember
- 2:56:43but he knows that they remember him he
- 2:56:45would reminisce on October 2012 when he
- 2:56:47had allegedly killed numerous ous people
- 2:56:49rapping that people were dying all of
- 2:56:50October and that it's the real Halloween
- 2:56:52there was also the track demon where Von
- 2:56:54would open up about becoming a killer
- 2:56:56after the death of his friend white
- 2:56:57white a track featuring a lyric where he
- 2:56:59claimed to have killed seven people
- 2:57:00saying bodies I got a few 4 plus three 3
- 2:57:03plus 2 this is a line a lot of people
- 2:57:05assumed meant seven kills and five
- 2:57:07assists or killings that he was present
- 2:57:09for but my interpretation of this would
- 2:57:11actually be that it's Von saying that he
- 2:57:12killed seven people personally before he
- 2:57:14became a rapper and five people who were
- 2:57:16killed by his crew either while he was
- 2:57:18allegedly present like in the case of
- 2:57:20Lil Mark or allegedly on his orders like
- 2:57:22would have been the case with FBG Duck
- 2:57:23hell some people would even count dusi
- 2:57:25to King Von's body count because after
- 2:57:27all Von would claimed that he was
- 2:57:28smoking dusi after his death having
- 2:57:30tweeted not long before that that you
- 2:57:31can only smoke somebody if you had
- 2:57:33something to do with killing them if you
- 2:57:34include that that would make a full 12
- 2:57:36bodies that King Von has been associated
- 2:57:38with over the years combine that with
- 2:57:40the fact that Von would end this song by
- 2:57:42boldly saying ffbg duck then I think it
- 2:57:44becomes pretty clear that he's trying to
- 2:57:46take responsibility for this killing
- 2:57:48another song on the album called the
- 2:57:49code would see King Von rapping about
- 2:57:51splitting $100,000 with his team and
- 2:57:53being goed line that hits different when
- 2:57:55you know that he allegedly paid $100,000
- 2:57:58to have duck killed and tweeting a goat
- 2:58:00Emoji immediately after the murder took
- 2:58:02place Von would only be alive for around
- 2:58:03a week following the release of this
- 2:58:05project but recording numerous songs and
- 2:58:07freestyles that referenced his alleged
- 2:58:09murders like King Von's Audio Mac bless
- 2:58:11the booth three style where he straight
- 2:58:12up wrapped that he had seven bodies on
- 2:58:14the 2nd of November he would tweet that
- 2:58:16people want to kill him with a YN war
- 2:58:18emoji clearly V was not scared in fact
- 2:58:20one of the very last things that V did
- 2:58:22was an interview with DJ academics and a
- 2:58:24big part of this interview was the
- 2:58:26discussion of V's beefs academics would
- 2:58:27press Von about his earlier tweets
- 2:58:29suggesting that Von had been lying about
- 2:58:31him and FBG Duck squashing their beef
- 2:58:33with Von denying that he was lying and
- 2:58:34suggesting that somebody else had
- 2:58:36deleted their DMS you you know you you
- 2:58:38know you in uh duck didn't make up his
- 2:58:41mom came out youing G how you go to see
- 2:58:44this right
- 2:58:48M said that would never happen his mama
- 2:58:49was not there I ain't no M his M I don't
- 2:58:51know his M you see what I'm
- 2:58:54saying I talk to him you see what I'm
- 2:58:56saying they they then they deleted all
- 2:58:59DM so I can't show him the I don't know
- 2:59:00why they do that from here a flustered
- 2:59:02King Von will try and sidestep his P
- 2:59:04beef with duck saying that they just
- 2:59:05went to school together they just make
- 2:59:07it look real crazy to y'all these just
- 2:59:09really people we are went to school that
- 2:59:10[ __ ] do look crazy to me I can do not
- 2:59:12that's how that's how you gotta
- 2:59:15understand like you said they right
- 2:59:17there down the street
- 2:59:18we went to school it Ain it ain't that
- 2:59:20you know and then you know it's just
- 2:59:22that we we ain't cool no more was you
- 2:59:24know but it ain't that serious like it's
- 2:59:25to the point where I let's now let's
- 2:59:28talk about
- 2:59:29it both us rapping we can we can figure
- 2:59:32out we need to stop all the violence all
- 2:59:33[ __ ] that
- 2:59:35[ __ ] we got a voice you see what I'm
- 2:59:37saying like we tell Chicago far back
- 2:59:39Chicago eventually academics would ask V
- 2:59:42how he felt when he heard about Duck's
- 2:59:43death and V would start slowly eating
- 2:59:45cereal saying that he was hurt by Duck's
- 2:59:47death death in an incredibly
- 2:59:49unconvincing manner were you saddened by
- 2:59:51the news that he was murdered then
- 2:59:54Hur I didn't go to sleep at
- 3:00:00night can't believe that at a certain
- 3:00:02point Von's academics to hold on he
- 3:00:04would then point the camera away from
- 3:00:06his face and we would hear what sounds
- 3:00:07like Von and his friends laughing off
- 3:00:09camera and before Von came back on
- 3:00:11camera for a very brief moment we got a
- 3:00:13glimpse of Von's friend from oblock BJ
- 3:00:15laughing in the background hold on
- 3:00:37[Music]
- 3:00:44I can't help but notice the fact that V
- 3:00:45is eating cereal whilst discussing the
- 3:00:47killing of wait you eat just just um
- 3:00:50cereal straight out the box no milk I'm
- 3:00:53gu I've said it before that I believe
- 3:00:55Von was a cial killer but honestly he's
- 3:00:57mentioned serial so many times during
- 3:00:59his career it really wouldn't surprise
- 3:01:00me if this was some kind of cryptic
- 3:01:02message that he was using to signal to
- 3:01:04fans that he saw himself as a serial
- 3:01:06killer with duck as his latest victim he
- 3:01:08would strangely tweet about how much he
- 3:01:10loves his serial after a series of
- 3:01:12alleged murders in 2012 even tweeting
- 3:01:14that eating cereal is the first thing he
- 3:01:16does after shooting someone he would
- 3:01:18promote Dirk cereal whilst they were
- 3:01:19both on the run from the Atlanta
- 3:01:20shooting at the varsity telling people
- 3:01:22on Twitter to buy the cereal whilst
- 3:01:24waving a clip of a gun and regularly
- 3:01:26posting himself on social media eating
- 3:01:28cereal and he would also be eating
- 3:01:30cereal when he told the world that he
- 3:01:31wanted to perform at FBG ducks funeral
- 3:01:34yeah serial be bust show they say King V
- 3:01:36featuring FBG D said that's what they
- 3:01:39want to see huh stop that man I'll
- 3:01:41perform at his funeral then when we
- 3:01:43finally saw the actual murder of FBG
- 3:01:45Duck and academics asked him about it at
- 3:01:47that very moment Von would decide to
- 3:01:49start eating cereal too maybe it's a
- 3:01:51stretch but that day when academics
- 3:01:53called Von he probably knew he would be
- 3:01:54asked about FBG Duck and he made sure to
- 3:01:56have that box of cereal within Arm's
- 3:01:58Reach so that the whole world would see
- 3:01:59him crunching on cereal at that exact
- 3:02:01moment sadly for Von soon after this
- 3:02:03interview he would end up on the other
- 3:02:05side of the gun getting shot himself and
- 3:02:07ultimately losing his life but in a
- 3:02:09final Twist of irony it would turn out
- 3:02:11that despite being connected to so many
- 3:02:13murders in his home City Von would
- 3:02:14seemingly end up losing his life in an
- 3:02:16altercation in another State and as a
- 3:02:18result of a petty rap beef that had
- 3:02:20nothing to do with his violent past in
- 3:02:22the
- 3:02:24street throughout King Von's career he
- 3:02:27was connected to a female rapper by the
- 3:02:28name of Asian doll with fans often
- 3:02:30speculating on whether their supposed
- 3:02:32relationship was genuine or simply a
- 3:02:34fake celebrity romance for clown
- 3:02:36apparently Asian met King Von just after
- 3:02:38Lil Dirk had signed to the same label as
- 3:02:39her with the label arranging a celebrity
- 3:02:41basketball game where Dirk would bring
- 3:02:43Von onto the court whilst Asian doll was
- 3:02:44on the sidelines this the first time I
- 3:02:46saw we was in oh just the basket it's
- 3:02:49out here he in New York see little booty

- 3:03:39would see Asian doll again in the studio
- 3:03:41and a release party with little Dirk

- 3:06:11official Asian doll would even release a
- 3:06:12song called grandson about King Von on
- 3:06:15Valentine's Day 2019 with him appearing
- 3:06:17in the music video in a March 2019

- 3:06:44laughing at people who only knew him
- 3:06:46online as Asian dolls boyfriend but the
- 3:06:48two of them would indeed be an item and
- 3:06:49she would need to deal with the baggage
- 3:06:51of dating a super Savage when Von got
- 3:06:53arrested for attempted murder Asian
- 3:06:55would be in tears over her boyfriend's

- 3:08:20would return home and be reunited with
- 3:08:22Asian doll but ironically this time it
- 3:08:24would be Asian getting Von in trouble
- 3:08:25while out on bail for that attempted
- 3:08:27murder King Von would end up getting
- 3:08:28into a fist fight with a man in a studio
- 3:08:30who had apparently called Asian dollar
- 3:08:32[ __ ] being sent back to jail for a
- 3:08:34brief period somebody called my
- 3:08:35girlfriend a yesterday tell what
- 3:08:37happened to my hand bro over beat his
- 3:08:40ass and despite Von wiing up in jail for
- 3:08:42it it would appear that Asian doll would
- 3:08:43actually appreciate Von's protection
- 3:08:45calling him her bodyguard on Twitter
- 3:08:47with Von himself saying that he wishes
- 3:08:49she wasn't a rapper so that he could
- 3:08:50keep her home and protect her saying
- 3:08:52that he doesn't trust her around other
- 3:08:54rappers but isn't it nice to have
- 3:08:55somebody in the same industry as you no
- 3:08:58that ain't I rather have you know I wish
- 3:09:00you you know I can't say I wish you want

- 3:09:22him I'm not going to say nothing cuz you
- 3:09:24know you got to be
- 3:09:26be I know I'm Von was clearly very
- 3:09:30possessive about Asian doll even
- 3:09:31tweeting that he would kill somebody for
- 3:09:33messing with her with that in mind it's
- 3:09:34no surprise that eventually it would be
- 3:09:36another rapper that would seemingly get
- 3:09:38in between Von and Asian and that rapper
- 3:09:40would be none other than Baton Rouge
- 3:09:41gangster rap Superstar NBA young boy now
- 3:09:44King Von had a strange relationship with
- 3:09:46young boy over the years king vau would
- 3:09:47be dissing NBA young boy all the way
- 3:09:49back in February 2019 you young

- 3:10:49that V quite admired young boy he'd
- 3:10:50often play his music and even tweeted
- 3:10:52welcome home to him in August when he
- 3:10:54was free as well as being seen on social

- 3:11:11lacking rather than admiring him because
- 3:11:13clearly both Lil Durk and King Von were
- 3:11:15feeling competitive with NBA young boy
- 3:11:17during this period in October 2019 L
- 3:11:19Dirk would reply to a DJ academics tweet
- 3:11:21claiming the NBA young boy was the best
- 3:11:23street rapper since the Chicago wave
- 3:11:25with Lil Durk suggesting that Von was a
- 3:11:27real Street rapper who could actually
- 3:11:28compete with young boy in February 2020
- 3:11:31Von would tweet indicating that young
- 3:11:32boy was holding onto a song featuring
- 3:11:34both of them and telling him that he
- 3:11:35should release it it would seem that Von
- 3:11:37and Asian doll were on good terms around
- 3:11:38this time with Von showing off a bunch
- 3:11:40of gifts and a love letter from her just
- 3:11:42a few days after Valentine's however by
- 3:11:44May 2020 Von would be tweeting that he
- 3:11:46was going for a a rough breakup then the
- 3:11:48following month tweeting that Asian doll
- 3:11:50was acting crazy and trying to embarrass
- 3:11:52other women but a few days later Von
- 3:11:54would tweet seemingly indicating that he
- 3:11:55was back on good terms with Asian doll
- 3:11:57then the following month Von would tweet
- 3:11:59saying that he doesn't care what a woman
- 3:12:00does if it's not his girlfriend a few
- 3:12:02weeks after that in August von would
- 3:12:03tweet saying that he takes things too
- 3:12:05far when he gets mad and tweeting saying
- 3:12:07that people won't believe the woman that
- 3:12:08he just made a hit with that same day
- 3:12:10images would surface of Von spending
- 3:12:12private time with the mother of NBA
- 3:12:14young boy child a woman named Jania and
- 3:12:16later speculation swelled that Von and
- 3:12:18her may have even created a sex tape
- 3:12:20during their time together after King
- 3:12:22Von tweeted that he could post a video
- 3:12:24that would make somebody stop claiming
- 3:12:25their own kids and later King Von's
- 3:12:27sister would also indicate that she had
- 3:12:28seen a video of Jania sleeping with
- 3:12:30somebody DMS would also later circulate
- 3:12:32from somebody who was apparently with
- 3:12:34them when they met suggesting that Von
- 3:12:35and janir had indeed slept together not
- 3:12:38recording music and Von would later rap
- 3:12:39on the song rose gold with pnb rock
- 3:12:41lyrics that seem to suggest that
- 3:12:43somebody's baby mother was bad in bed
- 3:12:45one of his friends 600 Breezy would
- 3:12:47congratulate King Von publicly for
- 3:12:49sleeping with his Ops baby mother and
- 3:12:50saying Rapa K suggesting that Von and
- 3:12:53his friends were looking to see NBA
- 3:12:54young boy dead however Jania would take
- 3:12:56to social media to deny the rumors and
- 3:12:58say that she was simply working on music
- 3:13:00with v to make money for her son we
- 3:13:02walked to the table to play the little
- 3:13:04game after my studio atten and I went
- 3:13:07home that's it y'all trying to make
- 3:13:10stories out of nothing on that man like
- 3:13:13I said I don't with no I've been working
- 3:13:17we have a song coming out y'all wasn't
- 3:13:19supposed to know but it is what it is
- 3:13:22now we have a song coming out so when
- 3:13:24the song come out y'all go wait it just
- 3:13:27know it's hard as I'm just trying to get
- 3:13:30my money to take care of my son period
- 3:13:33on top of that DMS would also circulate
- 3:13:35suggesting that V had indeed only worked
- 3:13:37on music with Jania to make Asian doll
- 3:13:39mad however Asian would later come out
- 3:13:41and claim that the story wasn't true
- 3:13:42about them working on a song together
- 3:13:44suggesting that she had actually found
- 3:13:45romantic DMS between V and the mother of
- 3:13:48young boy's child now i' seen DM I've
- 3:13:50beenen none of this not a surprise so
- 3:13:53all that songs did Dick the day after
- 3:13:56those pictures of Von's rendevu with
- 3:13:57Jania surfac young boy would post a
- 3:13:59picture with a caption saying that he's
- 3:14:01going to make sure that his son grows up
- 3:14:03and sleeps with King Von's daughter
- 3:14:05since he's trolling him with his baby
- 3:14:07mother and while this was all going on
- 3:14:08another Chicago black disciple rapper
- 3:14:10close to King Von Lil Reese was claiming
- 3:14:12to be planning to beat up NBA young boys
- 3:14:14artist quondo Rondo quondo would reply
- 3:14:16to this saying that reys won't do
- 3:14:21nothing a few weeks after this King Von
- 3:14:23would seemingly threaten young boy and
- 3:14:25quondo Rondo tweeting on September the
- 3:14:277th 2020 that he hopes that God has room
- 3:14:30up there for more dead people this
- 3:14:32seemingly provoked a response from
- 3:14:34quondo Rondo's right-hand man Lil Tim
- 3:14:36the next day who warned Von and people
- 3:14:39from Chicago about messing with quondo
- 3:14:41and this would seemingly be followed by
- 3:14:43a response from King Von the next day
- 3:14:45tweeting reminding the world that he has
- 3:14:47been fighting his whole life and that he
- 3:14:49hits hard as hell the same day that all
- 3:14:52of this is going on with Von engineer
- 3:14:53NBA young boy would drop a snippet of an
- 3:14:55unreleased song this song later turns
- 3:14:57out to be the track dead trolls and in
- 3:14:59this song young boy claims like Von to
- 3:15:01be responsible for seven murders and
- 3:15:03rapping that he's going to catch someone
- 3:15:05from out of town who is chasing after a
- 3:15:07girl and kill them young boy would also
- 3:15:09rap that his Ops are mad because they
- 3:15:11can't get a feature from him perhaps a
- 3:15:13hint to a potentially uncleared
- 3:15:15collaboration between the two artists
- 3:15:16being held back by young boy as one of
- 3:15:18King Von's earlier tweets seemed to
- 3:15:20suggest some people would later claim
- 3:15:22that this song actually predicted King
- 3:15:23Von's death with one lyrics saying that
- 3:15:25he's planning to kill someone in Atlanta
- 3:15:27after a show but chances are that's just
- 3:15:29a creepy coincidence but it's no
- 3:15:31coincidence that young boy dropped this
- 3:15:32snippet the very day that Von was
- 3:15:34running around with the mother of his
- 3:15:36child a day later Von would tweet
- 3:15:38claiming not to have a girlfriend and to
- 3:15:39simply be focusing on his career but a
- 3:15:41few days after that Von would tease a
- 3:15:43snippet of a new song of his own a track
- 3:15:45titled too real in this song he would
- 3:15:47rap that he's going to expose somebody
- 3:15:48and that he's going to kill somebody
- 3:15:50because of a rap beef then in September
- 3:15:52Von would jump on Instagram live to
- 3:15:54address his ongoing beef with NBA young
- 3:15:56boy saying that he's not in beefs in the
- 3:15:57music industry and that he doesn't want
- 3:15:59to beef in other states but also saying
- 3:16:01that he will beef people for no reason

- 3:17:34tweeting that he still isn't doing
- 3:17:36relationships in September Von and his
- 3:17:38sister were seen in the club with young
- 3:17:39boy's baby mama once again two days ago

- 3:17:51if you know with all of this going on
- 3:17:52Asian doll would be feeling the heat at
- 3:17:54the start of October Asian doll would go
- 3:17:56on Instagram live to address the
- 3:17:57situation with young boy and Von denying
- 3:17:59that Von embarrassed her and saying that

- 3:18:53apparently their first live together
- 3:18:54since their breakup with them appearing
- 3:18:56to be on fairly good terms also in
- 3:18:58October King Von will begin tweeting to
- 3:19:00promote a new song called mine to a song
- 3:19:03essentially dissing NBA young boy and
- 3:19:04saying that he's not going to beef about
- 3:19:06a girl because young boy's baby mama
- 3:19:08Jania is his too he'd also have a lyrics
- 3:19:10saying that he has beef in Nola or
- 3:19:12Louisiana where young boy is from and
- 3:19:14saying that young boy is rapping like a
- 3:19:15gangster but now he's got show Von
- 3:19:17whether or not he really is a gangster
- 3:19:19after this snippet released Von would
- 3:19:20tweet saying once somebody has slept
- 3:19:22with a girl he doesn't want her anymore
- 3:19:24with this possibly being a hint towards
- 3:19:25Asian doll moving on to NBA young boy
- 3:19:28with it actually being rumored that
- 3:19:29Asian had met up with young boy at some
- 3:19:31point during this time with later DMS
- 3:19:33from people in NBA young boy Camp
- 3:19:34suggesting that Asian doll had indeed
- 3:19:36hooked up with young boy before King Von
- 3:19:38passed away an Asian doll would
- 3:19:39seemingly admit to hooking up with young
- 3:19:40boy twice on her song No expose it
- 3:19:43apparently young boy even had access to
- 3:19:44Asian doll's phone and Instagram account
- 3:19:46during the time they had spent together
- 3:19:48as he had reportedly messaged his
- 3:19:50producer through Asian doll's Instagram
- 3:19:52account and then only days before King
- 3:19:54Von would end up losing his life on
- 3:19:55November the 4th 2020 young boy posts a
- 3:19:58snippet of a song that he made with
- 3:19:59Asian doll a song with the ominous title
- 3:20:01meet the reaper Von would be seen
- 3:20:03listening to the snippet of this young
- 3:20:04boy and Asian doll song later tweeting
- 3:20:06that the song is trash followed by yet
- 3:20:08another tweet alluding to there being a
- 3:20:09sex tape between him and NBA young boys
- 3:20:11baby mother Von would then say that him
- 3:20:13and jia's song is way better than Asian
- 3:20:15doll and NBA young boy song and saying
- 3:20:17that it has a better cover art another
- 3:20:19hint that he might have had compromising
- 3:20:21pictures of young boy's baby mother then
- 3:20:23Von would backtrack saying that he's
- 3:20:24just playing and that if Asian doll is
- 3:20:26happy he's happy but the song still
- 3:20:29sounds trash then rehashing the lyric
- 3:20:31from his song mind to once again
- 3:20:32indicating the Asian doll engineer his
- 3:20:35girl too the day before he was killed
- 3:20:37King Von was incredibly active on
- 3:20:38Twitter he would dis NBA young boy
- 3:20:40tweeting that rapper is a [ __ ] and that
- 3:20:41he's not one of them he would warn
- 3:20:43people to approach him with caution and
- 3:20:44he would say that his Ops are acting
- 3:20:46gangster but that's not what they're
- 3:20:47really like tweeting that he's not hurt
- 3:20:49just retaliating to the disrespect he's
- 3:20:51received with no feelings involved
- 3:20:53suggesting that what was going on was
- 3:20:55just entertainment with Von eventually
- 3:20:56saying in another deleted tweet that
- 3:20:58he's going to lead by example because
- 3:21:00he's older than young boy and saying
- 3:21:01that he's quitting the beef because many
- 3:21:03wars have started over a woman and that
- 3:21:05he's not beefing young boy he would say
- 3:21:06that they're sharing the same women and
- 3:21:08that doesn't matter and then in King
- 3:21:09Von's last recorded interview before his
- 3:21:11death with DJ academics he would touch
- 3:21:13upon his beef with NBA young boys since
- 3:21:14coming into the industry Von would deny
- 3:21:16that this was a real beef saying that
- 3:21:17they have the same girls and the
- 3:21:19internet has just blown it out of
- 3:21:20proportion you people told me people
- 3:21:22told me you and young boy was beefing or

- 3:21:55too serious nothing you should worry
- 3:21:57about unfortunately for Von things would
- 3:21:59be very serious indeed and the Very
- 3:22:01night of that final interview King Von
- 3:22:03himself would escalate things and get
- 3:22:05more than he bargained for and little
- 3:22:06did he know that this Feud over women
- 3:22:08would end up being the beef that would
- 3:22:09take his
- 3:22:13life barely a week after the release of
- 3:22:15his debut album welcome to oblock King
- 3:22:17Von's story would come to an abrupt end
- 3:22:19the week before his death King Von would
- 3:22:21be reflecting on Instagram just how far
- 3:22:23he'd come and reminding himself to enjoy
- 3:22:25these times because he knew there would
- 3:22:26be hard times coming going through this

- 3:25:22opium in an SUV and interestingly that
- 3:25:24truck can be heard playing the NBA young
- 3:25:26boy song My Window as it was driving
- 3:25:28away there be a lot of cars by
- 3:25:33here stop playing apparently Von would
- 3:25:36confuse his team by choosing not to go
- 3:25:37back to his Airbnb as his security crew
- 3:25:40initially thought instead Von would take
- 3:25:41a last minute and unexplained detour to
- 3:25:44the Monaco hookah lounge where quondo
- 3:25:45Rondo was with King Von's manager 100K
- 3:25:48track later telling DJ Vlad that his
- 3:25:50team was blindsighted by the changing
- 3:25:52plan he went over there to the after
- 3:25:55party and then his driver and his
- 3:25:59homeboy let us know that we was
- 3:26:01redirected we thinking we're going to go
- 3:26:02to the Airbnb or the hotel at around
- 3:26:043:20 on November the 6th King Von would
- 3:26:06find himself outside the Monaco hookah
- 3:26:08lounge in Atlanta perhaps he knew quondo
- 3:26:10Rondo would be there or perhaps it was
- 3:26:12just a coincidence all we know is that
- 3:26:14while there Von approached quondo Rondo
- 3:26:16and began assaulting him with a flurry
- 3:26:18of punches with quo's close friend Lil
- 3:26:20Tim opening fire and striking King Von
- 3:26:22four times security footage of the fight
- 3:26:24and subsequent shooting would circulate
- 3:26:26online after the incident what happened
- 3:26:27that night is that Von walked up to
- 3:26:29quondo Rondo and sucker punched him
- 3:26:31outside the club and proceeding to beat
- 3:26:32him up in front of a huge crowd but
- 3:26:34after throwing a few punches quo's
- 3:26:36friend Lil Tim would jump out of a car
- 3:26:38and shoot King Von four times Von's
- 3:26:40friends from oblock [ __ ] and Louie
- 3:26:42would attempt to shoot Lil Tim leaving
- 3:26:43him wounded but not dead after shooting
- 3:26:46SP him to the ground they would attempt
- 3:26:47to execute him on the floor but the gun
- 3:26:49would ja whilst this is going on a
- 3:26:51wounded King Von continues to wrestle
- 3:26:52with quondo Rondo on the floor at this
- 3:26:54point Von's other friend muwap would
- 3:26:56approach punching quondo Rondo to the
- 3:26:58ground and separating him from Von
- 3:27:00meanwhile after failing to execute
- 3:27:01Little Tim [ __ ] and Louie would
- 3:27:03attempt to flee the scene without
- 3:27:05realizing that they were running
- 3:27:06directly towards undercover police
- 3:27:08officers who would open fire believing
- 3:27:10that their lives were in danger too the
- 3:27:11police would kill [ __ ] and leave Louie
- 3:27:13in critical condition muop and Other
- 3:27:15oblock M would drag King Von's limp body
- 3:27:17to a waiting car and Rush him to the
- 3:27:19hospital but what's even more crazy is
- 3:27:21that quondo Rondo would take Lil Tim to
- 3:27:23the very same hospital that King Von and
- 3:27:25his team were at with quondo Rondo even
- 3:27:27going live showing himself trying to get
- 3:27:29Tim into the hospital and get assistance
- 3:27:31phf bzu would later post saying that
- 3:27:33he'd seen quondo at the hospital
- 3:27:34suggesting that they would have shot him
- 3:27:36if he didn't start recording but
- 3:27:37ultimately King Von would be rushed into
- 3:27:39emergency surgery in critical condition
- 3:27:41after the shooting he would ultimately
- 3:27:43die in hospital with media all around
- 3:27:45the world waking up to the news and
- 3:27:46Reporting on his death yeah Rick and
- 3:27:48Shan according to gbi rapper King vaugh
- 3:27:51and his group were at opium nightclub
- 3:27:53before making their way here to Monaco
- 3:27:55hookah lounge then to the parking lot
- 3:27:57where chaos ensued believe it or not
- 3:28:00this all playing out right in front of
- 3:28:01two Atlanta police officers one of them
- 3:28:04was actually inside his patrol car or
- 3:28:07next to his patrol car with his blue
- 3:28:08lights on APD responding attempting to
- 3:28:11stop the shooting but it was too late
- 3:28:13you hit like the one officer that did
- 3:28:15respond he tried to protect himself and
- 3:28:17stop what was going on the investigation

- 3:28:45post on Facebook saying that he had been
- 3:28:47praying for the day that King Von would
- 3:28:49be killed whilst other friends of crack
- 3:28:50would post tributes now that their
- 3:28:52friend's killer was no longer alive
- 3:28:53apparently cra's little brother would
- 3:28:55even post saying that they caught two of
- 3:28:57the three people who were present when
- 3:28:58CRA was killed and suggesting that they
- 3:29:00were disappointed not to be the ones who
- 3:29:02killed Von outside of Chicago Affiliates
- 3:29:04of NBA young boy like Big B would mock
- 3:29:06King vau in an Instagram story saying
- 3:29:08that it was funny that he was the one
- 3:29:10who started the beef and dissing NBA
- 3:29:11young boy and now he was the one dead
- 3:29:14the jokes on you you diss now you
- 3:29:15getting red down oh

- 3:29:27Lil Durk would mourn the loss of his
- 3:29:28twin even rap's number one Superstar
- 3:29:30Drake would post a tribute to Von after
- 3:29:32he passed NBA young boy biggest enemy
- 3:29:34Fredo bang would also mourn the loss of
- 3:29:36Von to 12 days after his final tweet
- 3:29:38somebody would take control of King
- 3:29:40Von's Twitter account releasing a
- 3:29:41statement thanking everybody who
- 3:29:43supported Von whilst he was alive there
- 3:29:45would be a media friendly around King
- 3:29:46Von's death funeral homes were also
- 3:29:48refusing to take King Von's body due to
- 3:29:50fears of violence at the ceremony and
- 3:29:52when the family finally found a place
- 3:29:54that was willing to host the funeral for
- 3:29:55Chicago's most famous killer they were
- 3:29:57forced to have it at 1 day's notice
- 3:29:59eventually Von would get the peaceful
- 3:30:01burial his family had hoped for with Von
- 3:30:03being laid to rest in Chicago on
- 3:30:04November the 14th 2020 with pictures of
- 3:30:07Von's funeral program and casket being
- 3:30:09posted on social media but being such a
- 3:30:11divisive figure in Chicago gang politics
- 3:30:13Von's enemies continue to disrespect his
- 3:30:15grave sight to this very day naturally
- 3:30:17Von's death sparked a strong response
- 3:30:19from many of his supporters 600 Breezy
- 3:30:22claimed to be headed to NBA young boys
- 3:30:23Hood 150 mph with the steppers BJ who

- 3:30:55eventually memorialized in his native
- 3:30:56oblock with a painting that became a
- 3:30:58tourist spot this mural became a
- 3:31:00pilgrimage for both diard fans who
- 3:31:02wanted to show their love and death
- 3:31:04defying Ops who wanted to show that
- 3:31:05they're not scared to come to oblock
- 3:31:07with longtime rival FBG cash posting up
- 3:31:10at the mural with a disrespectful
- 3:31:11caption towards Von with cash himself

- 3:31:15once a few months passed from Von's
- 3:31:17death his self-proclaimed twin Lil Dirk
- 3:31:19would dedicate his next album The Voice
- 3:31:21to King Von releasing it on December the
- 3:31:2324th 2020 with a front cover that
- 3:31:25depicted Durk and Von together and
- 3:31:27eventually quondo Rondo would break his
- 3:31:29silence about his involvement in the
- 3:31:30incident that claimed King Von's life on
- 3:31:32the 20th of November 2020 quondo Rondo
- 3:31:35releases the song end of story a song
- 3:31:37that's title is a disrespectful play on
- 3:31:39Von's most popular song crazy story and
- 3:31:42in the song quondo touches on the
- 3:31:43incident that ended up taking King Von's
- 3:31:45life expressing frustration about being
- 3:31:47judged and saying that other people's
- 3:31:49friends wouldn't have defended him like
- 3:31:51Lil Tim did as well as essentially
- 3:31:53dissing King Von and his friends saying
- 3:31:56blood on your brother on the ground go
- 3:31:58pick your mans up as well as rapping
- 3:32:00that him and Tim are claiming
- 3:32:01self-defense and that Von should have
- 3:32:03never put his hands on quondo he would
- 3:32:04also claim that this situation led to a
- 3:32:07million dooll Bounty being put on his
- 3:32:09head and following the release of this
- 3:32:10song he would also elaborate further on
- 3:32:12the events that unfolded that night in
- 3:32:14an extended interview with Angela Le
- 3:32:16speaking on the situation saying that
- 3:32:18the night that Von was killed he thought
- 3:32:19he was just letting a group of random
- 3:32:20people walk past before being suddenly
- 3:32:22sucker punched by Von like I'm thinking
- 3:32:24this some regular individual next thing
- 3:32:26you know a niggaer hit me quondo would
- 3:32:28say that the entire incident felt like
- 3:32:29an outof body experience to him is like
- 3:32:32I had an out of Body Experience quondo
- 3:32:35would also claim that the moment that
- 3:32:36King Von came over and started to fight
- 3:32:38with him he felt like the devil was
- 3:32:40coming to get him like it's like the
- 3:32:42devil was coming to get me like quondo
- 3:32:44explained to Angela ye that Lil him was
- 3:32:46his day one homie and he would protect
- 3:32:48him from anything he one thing about it
- 3:32:50he going to protect me with anything
- 3:32:54which anybody should do apparently while
- 3:32:56the gunshots were going off quondo says
- 3:32:58that he prayed unaware of what was going
- 3:32:59on and only coming to his senses after
- 3:33:02both Von and Tim had been shot on some
- 3:33:04out loud screamage I have like out of
- 3:33:07body experience it's like everything
- 3:33:09went back normal and I've been back down
- 3:33:12wondo was adamant that he didn't even
- 3:33:13know that it was King Von that he'd been
- 3:33:15fighting until the next day I didn't
- 3:33:17know this was him ma'am I swear to God
- 3:33:20on my soul ma'am like like ma'am quo
- 3:33:23would also say that he didn't know about
- 3:33:25the beef between young boy's camp and
- 3:33:27King Von's Camp when this all went down
- 3:33:29cuz I know dude just dropped the tap
- 3:33:31like was they trying to do something to
- 3:33:32me just boost him up or like what I
- 3:33:35don't know you just don't know where you
- 3:33:37just don't know where it came from you
- 3:33:38have no idea however unfortunately for
- 3:33:40quondo Rondo there would be more
- 3:33:41tragedies headed his way personally
- 3:33:43following the death of VA in the
- 3:33:45aftermath quondo Rondo and his team
- 3:33:47would be a frequent Target of what
- 3:33:48appeared to be Revenge attacks he would
- 3:33:50be targeted in a shooting at convenience
- 3:33:52store in Georgia on the second of May
- 3:33:542021 luckily escaping without injury but
- 3:33:57in the next incident quondo would be
- 3:33:58less lucky on August the 20th 2022
- 3:34:01quondo Rondo and his Entourage would be
- 3:34:03targeted in a shooting in Los Angeles an
- 3:34:05incident which left his close friend Lil
- 3:34:06PAB dead and a devastated quondo Rondo
- 3:34:09being recorded at the scene in the
- 3:34:10immediate
- 3:34:13aftermath King Von's life was one of of
- 3:34:15extremes he grew up in extreme poverty
- 3:34:17with a major disadvantage he found
- 3:34:19himself being drugg into the extremely
- 3:34:21violent streets of Chicago and he ended
- 3:34:23up being allegedly one of the most
- 3:34:24violent killers in oblock history by the
- 3:34:27time he died he had been connected to at
- 3:34:28least 11 murders that I've read about
- 3:34:30but ultimately we'll probably never know
- 3:34:32the full extent of Von's activities in
- 3:34:34the streets there's no doubt that Von
- 3:34:36was a prolific gang banger and shooter
- 3:34:38but having spent so much time analyzing
- 3:34:39him and the things that he did in his
- 3:34:41life it's hard to ignore the pleasure
- 3:34:43and pride that he seemed to get not just
- 3:34:45from killing but being known as a killer
- 3:34:47an everyday gang member or even mob hit
- 3:34:49man tends to kill for survival or money
- 3:34:51but for Von reading all of his tweets
- 3:34:53and lyrics it's clear that he derived a
- 3:34:55great deal of psychological pleasure
- 3:34:57from the killings that he was associated
- 3:34:59with it seemed like he was more
- 3:35:00satisfied by carrying out a hit in the
- 3:35:02streets than making a hit record and
- 3:35:04perhaps that's why when he got rich and
- 3:35:05famous as a rapper he couldn't leave
- 3:35:07that in the past because he wasn't
- 3:35:09killing to survive he was killing for
- 3:35:11fun and gaining satisfaction from the
- 3:35:13whole world knowing what he had done
- 3:35:14there was no reason for Von to take so
- 3:35:16much pleasure in the murder of Can't Get
- 3:35:18Right and there really was no reason for
- 3:35:20Von to put a $100,000 bounty on FBG
- 3:35:23duck's head Von would have been a
- 3:35:24millionaire by this point and FBG Duck
- 3:35:26was also a successful rapper in his own
- 3:35:28right duck wasn't a threat to the
- 3:35:30survival of Von or any of his friends at
- 3:35:32this point no to Von duck was just
- 3:35:34another trophy another body on his tally
- 3:35:36another score on the board sadly many
- 3:35:38people look up to King Von for what he
- 3:35:39did in the streets but I don't think
- 3:35:41that's much different from how other
- 3:35:42serial killers seem to get idolized
- 3:35:44someone like Jeffrey Dharma was known
- 3:35:46for targeting black gay men in his
- 3:35:48community partly due to the fact that he
- 3:35:49knew he could get away with it and when
- 3:35:51it comes to King Von's alleged victims
- 3:35:52it seems like he had a type to young
- 3:35:54black men women from the same poor and
- 3:35:56overpopulated area he was from because
- 3:35:59perhaps like Jeffrey Dharma Von knew
- 3:36:01that the cops simply didn't care enough
- 3:36:02to solve these crimes so he knew he
- 3:36:04would get away with it and he did get
- 3:36:05away with it for his entire life Von
- 3:36:08would beat every murder investigation
- 3:36:10that his name was ever placed in but if
- 3:36:11he was alive today he very well may have
- 3:36:13been facing a life in prison for his
- 3:36:15role in The Killing of FBG Duck Von gave
- 3:36:17the world a lot of great music that told
- 3:36:19one of the most unique and raw stories
- 3:36:21to have ever come out of the Chicago
- 3:36:23drill scene Von will definitely be
- 3:36:24remembered as one of the biggest and
- 3:36:26best rappers to ever emerge out of the
- 3:36:28city he made great music but also did
- 3:36:30terrible things and so realistically
- 3:36:32he'll probably also be remembered as
- 3:36:34rap's very first serial killer
