Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Lil Durk’s white female lawyer, King Cole Nicole is now trending after getting his 5 charges dropped.
Charges against Lil Durk in connection with a 2019 shooting incident have been dropped.
Per a recent report from regional outlet WSB-TV, Durk is no longer facing charges in connection with the non-fatal shooting, which was alleged to have taken place outside a Varsity restaurant location in the Atlanta area in February of 2019. As previously reported, Durk had been facing multiple charges, including criminal intent to commit murder. The late King Von was also initially charged in connection with the shooting.
When reached for comment by Complex on Monday, Durk’s attorney Manny Arora said he was “glad” to see the charges against his client dropped so that “all involved” could move forward.
“I am glad that the charges from three plus years ago have been dismissed,” Arora told Complex in an email. “While it is unfortunate that it took so long to reach the conclusion that we had argued from day one, I’m glad that all involved can now move on.”
Per a separate Pitchfork report, the reason provided by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis in court documents on the dismissed charges was “prosecutorial discretion.” Complex has also reached out to the Fulton County D.A.’s office for additional comment. This story may be updated.
Durk’s attorney, Manny Arora, tells TMZ … Willis simply didn’t have enough evidence to prove her case against the rapper.
Arora insists Durk never committed a crime that day despite his presence at the scene. He added it was a “shame” it took 3 years to finally drop the charges, but he’s not surprised since he believes prosecutors often drag out cases to save face.
Police responded to a 911 call on Feb. 5 and found a man with a gunshot wound. Witnesses told police the wounded man had been involved in an argument with an unknown black male before the shooting. The man was rushed to the hospital, where he underwent surgery. He ultimately survived.
Durk was originally hit with a slew of felony charges … aggravated assault, criminal attempt to commit murder, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime, and more.
But now Durk can put it all behind him.
