Im elated, Allens mom Deannea Allen toldRolling Stonemoments after the verdict was read.
I wanted to jump up and scream, Hallelujah.

Im so happy it was quick.
We got justice for Rakim.
I feel better knowing theyll be in jail for a long time.
Reached by phone, Sibounheuang said Wednesday she was thankful for the verdict.
Im grateful we could get justice so soon, she tellsRolling Stone.
I dont have to be concerned about who did it.
I dont have to worry about where it came from.
I know exactly where it came from, and I know that justice is served.
There was somebody with a white shirt and frayed pants in the car.
It was the dad driving the car.
He was an accomplice.
So that led us to follow the verdict form and check off all those points.
He said that proved there were more people in the car and supported Trones testimony he wasnt there.
The jury rejected that argument.
He told you why he buys the weed.
He claimed investigators had their mind made up and ignored anything that could prove his clients innocence.
Theres no evidence that my client planned anything.
You have no evidence that he intended anything, he said.
This young [shooter] acted independently of his dad.
There is no evidence that he controlled that boy.
He called the robbery conspiracy a crime of opportunity.
That is the person that can account for those six minutes of Mr. Freddie Trones life …
He just needs these six minutes of explanation not captured on a camera.
He said the reason was because the driver didnt exist.
The grieving mom called Trones alibi story ridiculous.
Im here to get justice.
This was my son, my child, Deannea said.
I want the jury to know he has a family who loves him and wants to support him.
For his part, Jones said he played no role in the alleged father-son robbery plot.
This case is so thin, Haas said in his closing argument.
What if Mr. Jones is simply a weed dealer?
Allens stunning murder rocked the hip-hop community.
The Philadelphia-bred artist became a breakout star in 2016 with his triple-platinum single Selfish.
That same year,Rolling Stonenamed him aNew Artist you should probably Know.
He went on to reach crossover fame with collaborations such as his 2019 feature onEd Sheerans Cross Me.
When Sibounheuang testified, her since-deleted post was shown to the jury.
She confirmed it didnt specify which Roscoes location she was at and only showed her food.
Also, the picture was only the plate of food.
[Other men] would never, she toldRolling Stoneas she left the courthouse.
