Overview
- An illegal photo of co-defendants OTF Boogie and OTF Dede was taken during the Nov. 18 pretrial hearing and later posted online.
- In a new filing, prosecutors call the breach proof that juror identities must be shielded to prevent intimidation or outside influence.
- Durk’s attorneys oppose juror anonymity as prejudicial and say it would hinder voir dire while disputing that OTF is a criminal enterprise.
- Prosecutors also reference threatening voicemails from alleged supporters, while the defense seeks removal of the magistrate judge and a prosecutor over the handling of those threats.
- Durk remains jailed without bond on federal murder-for-hire and weapons counts tied to a 2022 Los Angeles killing, with trial set for January 2026.
