Tru Life Turns Himself In On 1st Degree Murder Charges

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on June 24, 2009 at 3:30pm

Former Roc-A-Fella/Def Jam artist Tru Life turned himself in to authorities last night (June 23) to face a charge of 1st degree murder, according to reports. The charge is possibly tied to a brutal stabbing incident last week that left one man seriously injured, and an 18-year old teen dead. As reported by AllHipHop.com, police were initially investigating Tru Life’s brother for a retaliation attack in the non-fatal shooting of Michael Slater. The individual, whom police suspect is a drug dealer, was shot in the stomach outside of club Pacha. Several hours after the crime, police claim five gang members ambushed 30 year old Jason Black and the teen at a Manhattan apartment complex. Both men were stabbed repeatedly in the chest and face. Black survived the assault, while the unidentified teen succumbed to his wounds. At the time, police theorized that the back and forth violence was the result of a feud between Jason Black and Tru Life’s brother. 1st degree murder carries a maximum sentence of life in prison under New York law. If an official or witness is not the victim, the distinction can also be decreed for murders involving multiple parties or tortuous killings. Tru Life’s last music effort, “Wet ‘em Up,” was heard as a selection on the soundtrack to Grand Theft Auto IV. At press time, Tru Life could not be reached for comment. Source : ALLHIPHOP

Tony Yayo Takes Issue With How Max B's Lawyer Handled Case.Lawyer Gives Angry Response.

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on June 15, 2009 at 10:06pm

G-Unit member Tony Yayo is disappointed to see friend and recording partner Max B go to jail. Max, born Charles Wingate, was found guilty of manslaughter, as well as eight other charges, last week in New Jersey. His sentencing is July 31. Yayo said the trial went south before it even started, blaming his friend's downfall on a January video blog, in which Max and his lawyer, Gerald M. Saluti, spoke about the case for more than six minutes. The two also were part of subsequent Internet interviews. "It's an unfortunate thing that happened to Max B," Yayo told us. "He just had a kid. I f--- with Max. I f--- with French [Montana]. I think he had bad representation with his lawyer. What lawyer do you know that's gonna do a blog with you? That's when I think everything got messed up. That blog f---ed it up. You know I'm always in trouble. When I have a case, I don't do no press, nothing. If you don't got a lawyer there telling you, 'Shut the f--- up,' you're f---ed up. The lawyer was wack. Your lawyer wants to sit there and do a blog with you? [Max's] lawyer may not have been the one to handle a homicide." Saluti met Max a couple of years ago as part of the legal team Jim Jones provided for Max, who is an estranged member of Jones' Byrd Gang. Saluti eventually took the reins and said he would rep B for free. The lawyer fumed when he was told of Yayo's comments. "My first comment is, who the hell is Tony Yayo and what law school did he go to?" Saluti said. "Everything I do, I do for a reason. And where were all these people in support of Max — like Tony Yayo and all these other people that have something to say — when he was out there by himself facing all of these charges? Nowhere to be seen. Now everyone has an opinion about it. Everyone wants to help Max. I saw people were bustin' my chops about blogging while we were waiting for a verdict in this case ... on my Twitter. Do people actually think I touch my own Twitter and it's not my assistant? You think I have time to Twitter? "What year did Yayo graduate from law school is my question," Saluti added. "How many cases has he tried to verdict? It's ridiculous. People are so ready to kick a guy when he's down. Not that I'm saying Max and I are down, because we damn sure aren't done fighting this." In the wake of Max's conviction, Saluti appeared in an online video and read a letter from his client thanking fans for their support. Max also said in his letter he wouldn't trade Saluti for the world, even if the late, great Johnnie Cochran "rose from the dead." The attorney said he's in the middle of filing a motion to get the case thrown out altogether. "My daughter came to me at the end of the case, and she said, 'Daddy, you lost? But you worked so hard on that case. You don't lose. How could you lose?' " Saluti recalled. "And I told her, 'That's just the way God wants it right now.' That was my answer, and that's still my answer. Max is supposed to be the godfather to my 1-year-old, who we were gonna baptize after the trial. And I said to him after the trial, 'Water is not touching that kid's head until you are out the hole.' And I don't expect that to be 30 years from now. He was strong, you have to admit. I think I was more upset than he was. I really do. "I went and saw Max in jail the next day, after the verdict, and he wrote a letter to his fans specifically, and when I read it, I choked back tears," the lawyer added. "I love that boy. I held his son in my arms. I have pictures of his son and my son together." Authorities claim Max was part of a conspiracy to rob two men of around $30,000 two years ago. Source:MTVNEWS

Singer Lloyd Leaving Murder Inc

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on June 11, 2009 at 4:12pm

After 5 years as a mainstay on Irv Gotti’s The Inc., R&B singer Lloyd has declared his time with the former powerhouse label has “run its course.” Although he released his third LP in August 2008, the young crooner feels his career has become stagnant in the wake of The Inc’s separation from parent label Universal Records. “I’m ready for a change,” Lloyd said. “There’s no bad blood. I just feel I need to take more control over my career and get a fresh start. Hopefully Irv can understand my position.” Lloyd’s announcement comes just one month following the departure of Inc first lady Ashanti, who was granted a contract release after years of distancing herself from the beleaguered label’s legal and professional conflicts. While his own situation plays out, Lloyd is moving forward with a new mixtape to build anticipation for his fourth studio album. “We have plans to get in the studio with Jim Jonsin, The Runners, Cool & Dre, Rodney Jerkins, and others,” Lloyd detailed. “In the future, I still hope to work with Irv as a producer as well.” Lloyd’s manager Henry “Noonie” Lee framed his client’s decision as an essential business necessity to prevent any further career monotony. “We find ourselves in limbo for the second time in three years,” Lee said in a statement. It’s frustrating to know that opportunities to advance Lloyd’s career are out there but we can’t exploit them due to our current situation. Even though Lloyd is appreciative of the opportunity that has been afforded him by The Inc, he feels it’s time for him to move on and seek opportunities that will allow him to build and enhance his brand.” At press time, Inc CEO Irv Gotti could not be reached for comment. Lloyd is best known for his hit single’s “You” and “Get It Shawty.” He released three albums on The Inc: Southside (2004) Street Love (2007) and his most recent, Lessons In Love (2008).

C-Murder Pleads No Contest In Murder Trial : Will Be Sentenced To Ten Years In Prison

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 27, 2009 at 4:54pm

Rapper Corey "C-Murder" Miller has reportedly pleaded "no contest" to attempted murder charges and will be sentenced to ten years in prison. The decision was made Wednesday (May 27) afternoon. Rapper C-Murder has pleaded no contest to two counts of attempted second-degree murder. In the plea agreement, C-Murder, whose real name is Corey Miller, will be sentenced by the judge to 10 years in prison. The formal sentencing will be August 25th. (WAFB News) While the initial jury selection process began yesterday (May 26), jurors had not yet been chosen. Jury selection finally got under way Tuesday in Miller's attempted murder trial, nearly eight years after the rapper allegedly tried to shoot two men at a Baton Rouge nightclub. In the Baton Rouge case, Miller is accused of trying to shoot the owner of Club Raggs and a bouncer. Jury selection will resume today. No jurors were picked Tuesday. Three dozen of the nearly 50 potential jurors being questioned said they have heard of Corey Miller. The trial is expected to last until Friday,state District Judge Tony Marabella said. (2TheAdvocate) A majority of the potential jurors were familiar with the rapper which caused an extended jury-selection process. Judge Tony Marabella of the 19th Judicial District greeted about 45 prospective jurors. And then Marabella asked whether anyone knew the defendant, Corey Miller. "Mr. Miller is a rap artist, or a hip-hop artist, if the terminology is correct," Marabella said. "He sometimes goes by C-Miller. He sometimes goes by C-Murder." In the crowded courtroom, 37 people raised their hands, setting in motion an extended jury-selection process that is scheduled to resume Wednesday. (The Times-Picayune) The attempted murder lawsuit was initially placed on hold for a later date. A Baton Rouge judge has placed on hold a nightclub owner's lawsuit against Miller until a murder charge against Miller is resolved in Jefferson Parish. He is accused of trying to shoot two men, including the owner of Club Raggs, in August 2001. Club Raggs owner Norman Sparrow sued Miller for damages after the alleged incident. Miller faces attempted second-degree murder charges in Baton Rouge and a second-degree murder charge in Jefferson. State District Judge Kay Bates said the stay is necessary to protect Miller's constitutional right against self-incrimination. (Nola News)

Phil Spector sentenced to 19 years to life for the murder of actress Lana Clarkson; appeal expected

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 29, 2009 at 3:56pm

Mop-topped music pioneer Phil Spector was sentenced to 19 years to life in prison Friday for the murder of B-movie actress Lana Clarkson at his castle-like mansion in 2003. The Bronx native, now 69 and ailing, pioneered the "Wall of Sound" recording technique and produced such cultural touchstones as The Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling," and The Ronettes' "Be My Baby." Spector had fallen into virtual obscurity by the time of the shooting but regained international notoriety with tales of his drunken gunplay and the outrageous frizzy wigs he wore at back-to-back criminal trials. The first trial resulted in a hung jury. The second jury found him guilty of second-degree murder. He's vowed to appeal. Clarkson, 40, appeared in the 1985 cult film "Barbarian Queen" and met Spector for the first time only hours before she ended up dead in the foyer of his Alhambra, Calif., house with a gunshot wound to her face. Spector has maintained his innocence, saying Clarkson was despondent over a failed acting career and put the gun in her mouth before pulling the trigger. Prosecutors said the reclusive and mercurial Spector murdered Clarkson when she tried to flee his home before he was ready to say goodbye. Source : New York Daily News

Attempted Murder Case Begins for C-Murder

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 27, 2009 at 3:45pm

Yesterday (May 26), court proceedings began for C-Murder (Corey Miller) on attempted second-degree murder charges. Prosecutors allege the New Orleans rapper tried to kill a bouncer and the owner of a Baton Rouge nightclub in August 2001. The constant delays in the case were due to the East Baton Rouge district attorney’s office. Because of Miller’s upcoming, high-profile murder case in Jefferson Parish, East Baton Rouge prosecutors waited until the rapper’s appeal attempt was decided. According to court documents, the near-fatal encounter occurred when Miller refused to be searched before entering Club Raggs. After a brief argument, the rapper attempted to fire a semi-automatic pistol at the club owner and a bouncer. The shooting was averted when the weapon unexpectedly jammed. On August 3, Miller will begin a retrial on second-degree murder charges for the shooting death of 16-year old Steve Thomas at a Harvey club. The former No Limit solider was granted a retrial from his 2003 conviction, after an appeal revealed prosecutors failed to disclose the criminal background of 3 eyewitnesses. C-Murder’s posted $1 million bond requires him to remain under house arrest, with exceptions made for court appearances. The second-degree attempted murder case is scheduled to end tomorrow (May 28).

Max-B Murder Trial Begins

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 15, 2009 at 12:57am

Former Dipset rapper/hook specialist Max B began his murder trial today (May 14) in Bergen County, New Jersey. Prosecutors accuse Max, real name Charly Wingate, with plotting a botched robbery that left one man dead in September 2006. According to Assistant Bergen County Prosecutor Martin Delaney, Max B conspired with his ex-girlfriend (Gina Conway) and a stepbrother (Kelvin Leerdam) to rob two men (Allan Plowden and David Taylor) at a Holiday Inn on Route 4. The men were allegedly targeted because they carried around large sums of cash, and drove high-end luxury cars. The night of the homicide, authorities claim Max B, Conway, and Leerdam ambushed Allen Plowden in his hotel room, duct taping him and a female companion. When interrogated about the location of his money, Plowden is reported to have stated his partner David Taylor, staying two floors down, had the funds. After forcing Plowden to make a call, Taylor was lured to the room and killed instantly via a point blank shot to the face. The prosecution’s case rests largely on the testimony of Gina Conway, who has agreed to testify against her alleged co-conspirators. In exchange for her testimony, she will avoid a life sentence and serve 18 years on armed robbery and manslaughter charges. Attorneys for Max B and Kelvin Leerdam will counter that Gina Conway is an unreliable witness and the sole originator of the robbery plot. At press time, Gina Conway is expected to take the stand next week. Source:AllHipHop.Com

Man Kills Boss Over Air Conditioning

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 16, 2009 at 11:02pm

Simon Silva, a 66 year-old Miami resident, lived and worked on the property of his unnamed boss and de facto landlord until he was fired earlier this week. Silva began making arrangements to move out, but the landlord seemingly grew impatient yesterday and disconnected the air condition during a 90+ degree Miami day. Silva got angry, which is understandable given the weather, and the two got in a heated dispute over the hot situation, according to police documents. What isn't understandable is why Silva pulled out a gun and shot the man and another unidentified victim. The other victim was not involved in the argument. The landlord later died of his injuries at Jackson Memorial Hospital. The second victim is currently in the hospital in stable condition. Silva later confessed to the police. He's being charged with 2nd degree murder and attempted murder. Source: Miami New Times
