Hester claims Durk funded his trip to LA and planned the hit, even mentioning money for taking out Quando Rondo or Lul Timm — while Durk remains not guilty. The defense tore into Hester, painting him as a self-serving snitch, and his own wife testified against him, saying their son has disowned him. Online, Hester is being roasted for “snitching his way into more time,” as the jury weighs his testimony in Durk’s fate.
