31 years in prison
Long prison sentence after murder of US rapper PnB Rock
Around two years after the fatal robbery of US rapper PnB Rock ("Selfish"), a man in the US state of California has been sentenced to many years in prison. The 42-year-old must spend at least 31 years behind bars.
PnB Rock was accompanied by his girlfriend to a restaurant in Los Angeles in September 2022. The 30-year-old musician was attacked and shot there.
A masked gunman had threatened the victim with a gun, demanded jewelry and other items and fired several shots. The perpetrator then fled in a vehicle waiting outside the restaurant.
Father planned robbery, son carried out the crime
According to the indictment, the man who has now been sentenced to a long prison term incited his then 17-year-old son to carry out the robbery. The teenager is said to have carried out the crime.
The father had planned the robbery and was also behind the wheel of the getaway car, argued the public prosecutor. The man's lawyer countered that his son had acted on his own initiative. The 42-year-old was not even at the scene of the crime.
The son was also charged with murder, but the trial has not yet taken place. His mental state is still being investigated.
The rapper, whose real name is Rakim Allen, became famous for songs such as "Fleek" and "Selfish". Pop superstar Ed Sheeran recorded his single "Cross Me" together with PnB Rock and Chance the Rapper.
