Posted by King Von’s alleged killer Timothy “Lul Tim” Leeks was granted $100,000 bond on Friday (March 26) and released the following afternoon.
The 22-year-old Atlanta native had been behind the bars of a Fulton County Jail cell since Von’s November 2020 murder. While Lul Tim’s crewmate Quando Rondo celebrated his release, Von’s fellow Chicago native Lil Reese issued an ominous warning. On Sunday morning (March 28), Reese took to Instagram Live where he vowed to handle Lul Tim.
“We gon’ roll his ass up real soon,” he said. “On my momma. Roll his ass right up. Big ass Backwoods. Big ass Backwoods, we gon’ roll his ass up.”

Judging by the sound of the clip, Reese is still struggling to regain his original speaking voice nearly two years after he was involved in a near fatal shooting in the Chicago suburb of Country Club Hills in November 2019.
The Chi-Town rapper was struck by a bullet in the neck and needed immediate surgery to repair the damage. Later that month, he shared three photos of himself shopping at Saks Fifth Avenue. In the caption, he admitted he can’t speak — or rap for that matter.
“Voiceless rite now,” he captioned the photo. “I lost my voice I didn’t lose my life god is good.”

Reese then confessed in a Twitter post he prays for his voice to come back every morning, writing, “I been waking up 6am everyday checking to see if my voice back. I pray this Shìt just come over nite.” Following the shooting, Reese showed off his injuries in another Instagram post, revealing multiple staples on his throat.

Von wasn’t so lucky. On November 6, 2020, the 26-year-old rapper was shot outside of an Atlanta hookah bar following an altercation with Quando Rondo’s crew but didn’t survive. Lul Tim was also struck by a bullet during the melee and was taken to a local hospital where police arrested and charged him with the murder.
