A man in Los Angeles County has been found guilty of orchestrating the murder of rapper PnB Rock by sending his 17-year-old son to carry out the crime. Freddie Trone, 42, was convicted of murder, robbery, and conspiracy charges after his son shot the hip-hop star during a robbery at a restaurant in South Los Angeles in September 2022.
The prosecution argued that Trone directed his son to commit the murder, while the defense claimed he was only an accessory after the fact. Trone's son, who is now 19, was charged with murder but is currently deemed incompetent to stand trial and is in juvenile custody.
