Interesting. I haven't read past the excerpt because the registration requirement bugged me. I would wonder what possible motive the cops (corrupt or no) would have for killing some gangster rapper. This is all making me wistful for the days when gangster rappers were killing each other off and otherwise keeping it real.
I didn't resgister either, but this is from another article. The cops don't sounds like they were working for the right team. I don't have a dog in this fight other than my tax dollars, so I lose no matter what.
On the video made 5 years ago, Kenny B claims convicted cop Rafael Perez admitted he and another cop, David Mack, worked security for Suge Knight's Death Row Records. Perez also allegedly confessed that he and Mack were at the same industry party on March 9, 1997 where Biggie Smalls was murdered. "Perez said he worked security ... he had a cell phone ... he called Mack on his cell phone and told him that Biggie Smalls was in his truck," the informant told cops.
Biggie was murdered on March 9, 1997 after attending a music industry party in Los Angeles. The family's suit against the city alleges that then corrupt cop David A. Mack and Marion "Suge" Knight orchestrated the rapper's murder and that top ranked LAPD officials covered up their actions.
Some police in the Rampart precinct were found to have strong gang ties, maybe be full-lfedged members. This was a big scandla a few years ago.
