Rapper Nino Paid Extradited to Atlanta on Murder and Armed Robbery Charges; Mugshot Released

Nino Paid’s mugshot is out, and the man in the photo has crossed state lines to face a murder case. The 25-year-old DMV rapper, legal name Jacquan Andrews, was transferred from Detroit into Fulton County Jail in Atlanta this week, where reports say he faces murder, armed robbery, and aggravated assault charges. Daily Loud published the booking photo on Monday, October 13.

The charges trace back to an April 2026 shooting in Atlanta that left Keion Borders dead. Hoodline reported that Andrews was picked up in the Detroit area in early September while on his Somewhere Over the Rainbow Tour, before a planned crossing into Canada. US Marshals handled the detention, and the tour dates were left hanging while the case moved forward.

Investigators have never described him as the triggerman. According to an Indiatimes breakdown of the case, police do not believe Andrews fired the shot but allege he was involved, after Ring doorbell footage reportedly placed him at the scene. He remains the only person arrested so far in connection with the killing.

Details from the family side surfaced in the days after the arrest. HipHopHero connected the arrest to the initial My Mixtapez post, and an update from Matic TV relayed accounts attributed to Borders’ relatives, who said he was shot twice in the head during an alleged robbery for a large sum of cash at an Atlanta condo. The same relatives claimed Borders was a fan of Andrews’ music and believed jealousy drove the killing, though none of that has been substantiated by prosecutors.

Hypefresh has followed the rapper’s legal troubles as they developed. Readers can revisit Hypefresh’s earlier coverage of Nino Paid being arrested by US Marshals, a case file that now extends into Georgia. The Fulton County system he is entering is familiar ground for high-profile hip-hop prosecutions, from DA Fani Willis’s contested claims in the Young Thug case to the routine processing that follows when booking photos go public, as Duke Dennis’s mugshot release after his San Antonio arrest showed earlier this year.

The extradition mechanics followed the standard path between states, with Georgia submitting a requisition and Michigan signing off before the transfer. That paperwork is now behind him. The mugshot’s release confirms the Georgia case has formally absorbed him, and a first Atlanta court appearance is the next checkpoint. Every charge remains an allegation until a jury says otherwise, and no Fulton County prosecutor has publicly detailed the evidence against him yet.
