“You could see by the reactions of everyone that we’re shocked because that’s not the type of person [Clark] is,” Jmali told The Daily Beast. “…He was about business, not violence.”

“Pat was similar to Takeoff in that he was quiet and just went about his business,” Jmali said. “That’s why this is so surprising to everyone here.”

Police claim Patrick Clark DJ had a gun in one hand and a wine bottle in another when he was caught on camera firing his weapon. Those bullets allegedly struck Takeoff.

Detectives said fingerprints on the wine bottle led them to identify Clark as the shooter.

Additionally, detectives believe Clark’s gunfire killed the rapper based on the “direction” he was seen firing on surveillance video.

“The defendant was captured on video shooting in the direction of the complainant with a gun in one hand, wine bottle in another hand. Video also shows the defendant leave the bottle at the scene. Prints from wine bottle, phone records, and a vehicle helped in ID’ing the defendant as the shooter in this murder case.” Detectives said.

Following the shooting, prosecutors said Clark searched for information about the case and also included his own name and age in the searches.

According to court records, Clark purchased plane tickets to Mexico two days before being arrested and applied for and received an expedited passport.

Prosecutors also said officers found a large amount of cash on him at the time of his arrest.

Patrick Clark’s lawyers denied in court that he was trying to run away.

Letitia Quinones said: “That was something that was already pre-planned, and it was counseled before he was arrested. So, I think that’s important. He wasn’t trying to go anywhere.”

Clark posted his $1 million bond on Jan. 5 and was ordered to house arrest with a GPS ankle monitor.

Clark’s social media accounts show that he carried on like usual in the days after Takeoff’s death. He posted on Halloween—the day of the shooting—to “meet me at the club.” Then, on Nov. 2, he tweeted, “God got me he been had me.” On Nov. 8, he wrote, “Been hurt so many times it’s hard for me to feel love!!” followed the next day with, “I ain’t perfect I’m solid tho.”

People close to Clark said they felt he was being “framed” for the murder.

“I know him. He’s not like that. I honestly feel like they got the wrong guy,” said one friend who knew Clark from his strip club. “He doesn’t get mad or hostile. He’s very nice and thoughtful. That’s all I have to say. I feel he is being framed.”

The friend, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said Clark would not shoot someone because he “wouldn’t jeopardize losing everything he worked so hard for.”

In May 2023, a grand jury indicted Patrick Clark, also known as DJ Pat, for the murder of Takeoff.

Lawyer for Patrick Xavier Clark released a statement following the indictment: “(Thursday’s) action by the grand jury is not unexpected. We would ask people to remember that getting an indictment requires meeting a very, very minimal standard of proof. When we get inside a courtroom and in front of a jury, where we will be able to put on our evidence and cross-examine the state’s witnesses where the standard of proof is guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, we expect the jury will come back with a verdict of not guilty.”
