New PnB Rock Footage Suggests He Was Set Up in 2022 Murder

New details regarding PnB Rock’s 2022 murder have emerged. True Crime News got its hands on surveillance footage inside the Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles on the fateful day PnB Rock — born Rakim Allen — was killed, and the clips suggest the rapper/singer was set up.

Reporter Ana Garcia narrates the video that shows a person fist-bumping PnB around the time of his and fiancée Stephanie Sibounheuang’s 12:20 p.m. PT lunch arrival. Security footage outside the restaurant finds two people hashing out a plan to rob the Philly native of his estimated $500,000 in jewelry.

They would go on to alert the gunman, who pulled up to Roscoe’s in South Central around 1:17 p.m. PT, and it wasn’t long before he pulled the trigger — firing three shots into PnB Rock’s midsection and leaving him in a pool of blood as an unarmed security guard, staff members and innocent bystanders fled the scene.

Bodycam footage of police arriving on the scene five minutes later, along with Sibounheuang being interrogated by investigators, is also included, along with the heartbreaking moment she learne of PnB’s death as he succumbed to his injuries at a local L.A. hospital.

Sibounheuang posted an Instagram Story of her chicken and waffles during their meal, which included a geotag of the Roscoe’s location (PnB Rock was not in the photo). She blamed herself for the fatal attack, and many others on social media attempted to hold her responsible, but Garcia explained to CBS News that the setup was made by two people inside the restaurant and had nothing to do with her post.

“She didn’t get to post that photo until much later. It was those two [in the restaurant] that were responsible for the death of PnB,” Garcia said, while exonerating Sibounheuang. “The setup was just to steal his jewelry. The girlfriend blamed herself that it was her fault, and it wasn’t her fault. Social media and other celebrities jumped all over to blame her.”

PnB Rock leaves behind two daughters. His first, Milan Allen, was born in 2013, and Sibounheuang gave birth to Xuri Lee in 2020.

Freddie Lee Trone was found guilty in August of sending his 17-year-old son to shoot and murder PnB Rock in 2022. Trone, 42, was sentenced to 31 years behind bars in September on a count of murder, two counts of robbery and one count of conspiracy to commit robbery.

Prosecutors ruled that Trone’s 17-year-old son wasn’t fit to stand trial, which led to Trone being charged in the case. A second defendant, Tremont Jones, was also sentenced to 12 years in prison for his role in the murder on multiple robbery charges.
