BREAKING: New Details Reveal That PnB Rock’s Murder Suspect Allegedly Torched Getaway Car in Botched Cover-Up

The murder of Philadelphia rapper PnB Rock, who was shot and killed inside a Roscoe’s House of Chicken ‘N Waffles in South Los Angeles last year, shocked the hip-hop community and left many questions unanswered. Now, new details have emerged in the case, revealing how the suspects allegedly led investigators to their door with a botched cover-up.

According to legal documents obtained by Rolling Stone, authorities claim that Freddie Lee Trone, the father of the 17-year-old shooting suspect and the alleged getaway driver, attempted to destroy the car used in the crime by setting it on fire and abandoning it just two blocks from his home in Gardena, Calif., hours after the shooting.

The documents also reveal that two new suspects have been charged in connection with the murder: Tremont Navon Jones, 45, and Wynisha Evans, 39. Prosecutors allege that Jones was the one who tipped off the killers to PnB Rock’s location and possibly supplied the gun used in the murder, while Evans helped Freddie Trone escape to Las Vegas after the murder.

PnB Rock, whose real name was Rakim Allen, was a rising star in the rap scene, known for his melodic flow and crossover hits such as “Middle Child” and “Cross Me” with Ed Sheeran. He was eating at the restaurant with his girlfriend Stephanie Sibounheuang on September 12, 2022, when a gunman walked in, demanded his jewelry, fired the fatal shots and fled in a Buick Enclave.

The case has been shrouded in mystery and speculation, as some initially believed that Sibounheuang’s Instagram post showing PnB Rock’s jewelry and location had alerted the assailants. However, a source with knowledge of the case told Rolling Stone that it was Jones, not the Instagram post, that informed the alleged killers of the rapper’s whereabouts.

Jones was reportedly seen on surveillance video fist-bumping PnB Rock as he entered the restaurant and later meeting up with Freddie Trone outside the restaurant before the shooting. He also allegedly handed over an object covered with a towel to Trone and called his phone number around the time of the slaying.

Freddie Trone and his son were arrested and charged with murder and robbery weeks after the shooting, while his wife Shauntel Trone was charged as an accessory after the fact. Jones and Evans were arrested and charged last May under a different case number. All four suspects have pleaded not guilty and are awaiting trial.

The case is expected to resume on Monday for a key hearing at a Compton courthouse. The prosecution is seeking to consolidate all five defendants under one case number and have them tried together. The defense is expected to oppose this motion and argue for separate trials.

Conclusion

The murder of PnB Rock, one of the most promising rappers of his generation, has been a tragic loss for the hip-hop community and his fans. The case has also been a complex and intriguing puzzle for the investigators, who have followed the clues left by the suspects’ careless actions and connections. As the case heads to trial, more details may emerge that will shed light on the motive and circumstances of this senseless crime.
