FBG Duck, real name Carlton Weekly, was gunned down in broad daylight while shopping on Oak Street in the city’s Gold Coast neighborhood on Aug. 4, 2020.
Defendants Marcus Smart, aka Muwop, Christopher Thomas, Tacarlos Offerd, aka Los Munna, Kenneth Roberson, and Charles Liggins are facing charges of assault in aid of racketeering, murder in aid of racketeering, and firearms violations.
All 5 suspects are in jail without bond while awaiting trial.
U.S. Judge Martha Pacold set the date of the murder trial for October 2, 2023.
“We’re looking at a long trial. It is a substantial amount of time no matter how you look at it,” she said.
FBG Duck was a member of the Fly Boy Gang (FBG), a faction of the Gangster Disciples (GDs), which has been in a decades-long feud with the Black Disciples (BDs).
FBG Duck was best known for his tracks “Chicago Legends”, “Slide”, and “Dead Bitches.”
It is believed he was killed in retaliation for dissing deceased gang rivals and O Block legends, Odee Perry and T Roy, on “Dead Bitches.”
Drill rap is hardcore gangsta rap with emphasis placed on dissing dead gang rivals.
