L.A. City Council Reinstates Reward in Notorious B.I.G. Case

 •  XXL Magazine  •  by XXL Staff  •  36 Comments

biggiechain.jpgThe City Council of Los Angeles has reinstated a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the slaying of Christopher “The Notorious B.I.G.” Wallace. According to KNBC Channel 4 in LA, the council approved the reward on Friday (September 22) after city councilman Dennis Zine made the request. An initial reward of $25,000 was offered in 1997, the year that the murder took place, however it expired before anybody stepped forward with any evidence. In July of this year, the LAPD announced a new probe into the case led by a special task force of detectives. The rapper’s family has alleged that two rogue LAPD officers orchestrated the murder on behalf of Death Row Records head Suge Knight, and in January a judge declared a mistrial in their civil suit against the city. The City Council subsequently agreed to pay $1.1 million in sanctions and legal fees to the Wallace family.

    Fuck 50.000 dollars, that ain´t shit. I think…no…I know that if a famous white person in the music industry would have been killed all these years ago, the murderer would´ve been behind bars now and the number would be 500.000 dollars…so fuck the L.A.P.D!!!

    Man are you fucking serious? This case will never get solved. Everybody know who did what,but they are to afraid to get the shit done. Look at Suge Knight’s career now its going no where. That’s what you call KARMA at its best. He did have something to do with Big and Pac getting shot. He ran the west coast for a minute putting his goones on anybody who fuck’d with “Tha Row”. He killed Pac due to the fact that pac was leaving “Tha Row” in 97 to do his own thing(do your homework) Suge got scared that oh this nigga leaving he gone stop my bread. Pac was the highest selling artist on “Tha Row” at the time. and he knew with Pac leaving so would alot of others. Dre had already made his mind up so damn no more beats and hot ass production first off, second with Pac leaving his meal ticket was damn near expired, and third you see what the fuck Snoop went through just to leave.Now him and Suge got forever beef. With pac gone he could still handle Pac’s music and still get that Executive Producer stamp on there and that’s guaranteed money right there. Big this dude already knew with Pac gone he was most def next now with his its funny because who had the most to gain from his demise? Puffy! That’s right I muthafuckin said it PUFFY PUFFY!!!! With Big out of the way he could get his prime stime shine on and still get that best executive producer cred and still eat. Look at him ans Suge both. Except Puffy is more business smart than street smart and that’s where suge comes in at. Puff still collect from BIG I mean come on the shit is simple math you add and subtract all of the bitch ass niggas in each crew. What does that add up to? http://www.myspace.com/zozo2 This bitch spits nothing but the truth and that fire holla at me. And for you goones that killed Pac FUCK YALL I hope you die slow muthfucka my 44 make sure all yall kids don’t grow!!!!! You killed the realest nigga ever born. And I hope you meet satan bithc made muthafucka!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The American goverment held a meeting concerning the influence of rap and gansta rap in particular.The effect that it was having on american culture..That is the nod from the very top,that assasinations of those individuals wont be investigated..My dog could solve the big case.Corrouption unfortunatly dosent stop at the mexican border,most american institutions suffer from corruption,the media have been hijacked.75% of top media people have afilliations to the cia.A direct responce from vietnam.What kind of police force allows their cops to moonlight?.What kind of newspaper tells its repoter to insert stuff that makes the cops look good./.Big was being followed by the fbi,atf,muslim hitman,prehaps the rest of the agencies were there to view how a hit goes down..America has some good people like the first investigater that was put on the case a full 30 days after the event,but he soon came up against the nasty corrupt force that permeates the police force,the city,the local and national goverment,the newspapers.Bigie and tupac have shown how deep the corruption goes in america,.
