Key takeaways 6
Jam testified that the group tracked Quando Rondo to multiple locations including the Level Hotel, Litco dispensary, and Bape store before settling on the Beverly Center gas station, citing crowd density as a reason for delaying the hit.
Kanye West made a notable appearance in the courtroom, staring down the host and failing to rise for the jury, which the host criticized as disrespectful to the justice system.
Jam claimed he tried to call off the murder due to fear and bad feelings, stating he texted Dee saying 'these guys ain't ready' and 'I tried to call it off,' but asserts Durk ignored these pleas.
The defense attorney Brian Steel aggressively cross-examined Jam, exposing contradictions in his timeline, such as claiming Boon Mo's call was 'out of the blue' while phone records showed Jam had called Boon Mo twice prior.
Jam admitted to recording a song called 'Federal Freestyle' on the Loyal Bros 2 album post-murder, which he described as a 'low-key confession,' and stated he was paid $10k for it.
Jam testified that Durk was on FaceTime after the shooting, smiling and asking how many shots were fired, which Jam described as one of the most damning moments of testimony.
