C.Gambino's father speaks at his son's grave about the verdict and his loss
The father of murdered Swedish rapper C.Gambino visits his son's grave for hours every day. He spoke out after four men received sentences for involvement in the killing. C.Gambino was shot dead in a Gothenburg parking garage last summer. He was 26 years old.
On Wednesday, three young men received prison sentences between 12.5 years and life for aiding the murder. No one was convicted of actually committing the murder. The fourth defendant received a lesser sentence.
The Grammy-winning artist's father described meeting his son on the day he was killed. He now spends several hours daily at the gravesite. "Why? You haven't thought about me and his mother," he said. "How are we supposed to live without him?"
He added a direct message to those responsible: "I will ask for a hundred years why you killed my son."
The case highlights Sweden's ongoing struggles with gang violence. Gothenburg has seen several high-profile shootings in recent years. The sentencing brings some closure but leaves the actual shooter unpunished.
Related developments show gang members sending supportive letters to one convicted man. Another article details how the killers waited nine days in ambush. The communication systems failed when C.Gambino lay dying.
The father's grief reflects the human cost of Sweden's gang conflicts. His daily visits to the cemetery show how violence devastates families long after headlines fade.
