Rapper Quando Rondo’s Cousin Killed A Week Before RICO Trial

Rapper Quando Rondo’s distant cousin and friend Bandup Pablo was murdered a week before he was reportedly set to go on trial for RICO charges.

Saviay’a Robinson, 24, was killed in a shooting on Aug. 19 in Los Angeles with Quando Rondo, whose real name is Tyquin Bowman, as they were riding in a black Cadilac near a gas station in West Hollywood.

Robinson and 10 other defendants were charged in Jan. 2019 by the-Chatham County District Attorney Meg Heap under state RICO laws, according to Savanah Morning News.

The 11 defendants are accused of going on a nine month-long crime spree that included burglary, theft, car theft, fraudulent financial transactions and other charges, report Savanah Morning News.

The indictment alleges Robinson, and two other accomplices stole 10 cars worth more than $100,000 from the Chatham Parkway Collision Center on Aug. 19 and Aug. 20, 2017.

Robinson was also being charged in two other cases. The charges included second-degree burglary, second-degree cruelty to children, fleeing from police and theft by taking.

Robinson was out of jail on bond for two years.

In November of 2020, Quando Rondo’s other close friend, Lul Tim, whose real name is Timothy Leeks, shot and killed Chicago rapper King Von.
