I wonder if the five stars on the letters they left has any relation to the Five Percenters. Well, the Five Percent Nation logo is a star, pointing in the same direction as the Nation of Islam Star (about 11 o'clock), a moon and a big "7" I assume because the Five Percent Nation was born in Mosque No. 7, as an offshoot of Nation of Islam according to the article. Perhaps this loon decided to just make "his own" offshoot of the Five Percent Nation.

I've been reading through some of the FBI information from one of the links above. Very interesting stuff.
These guys may not actually consider themselves five percenters, but it does seem clear that a least one of them (the one that wrote the notes) has been heavily influenced by this teaching from somewhere.
It may have just been incorporated into some of the Nation of Islam lore he picked up on the street, but this stuff is scary and it appears that those connected with it have a reputation for extreme violence.

There's been news reports of a Jamacian rap group called "Five Red Stars", but I haven't been able to find info on them.
