One of the greatest mysteries in hip-hop has finally gotten some closure because Jimmy Henchmen confessed to planning the 1994 hit on Tupac Shakur at Quad Studios.
Reports The Urban Daily:
After being convicted of running an interstate drug operation, Jimmy Henchman confessed to authorities he was the mastermind behind the shooting and robbery of Tupac Shakur that began the East Coast vs. West Coast war. According to the Village Voice, Henchman participated in “Queen For A Day” government sessions last fall where he confessed to being the brains behind the operation that landed Tupac in the hospital nursing five gunshot wounds.
(The “Queen For A Day” program allows suspected assailants under investigation choose to enter an agreement with the government to confess knowledge of certain crimes with the agreement that the information won’t be used to prosecute them.)
His confession unfolded as he was trying to carve out a cooperation deal that might lead to a reduced sentence, according to federal prosecutors. “Rosemond apparently came clean about his involvement in Tupac’s ambush shortly after his former best friend, Dexter Isaac, stepped forward last summer to publicly confess that he had led the attack on Shakur in 1994. Isaac released a statement on June 16, 2011 to allhiphop.com, saying it was Rosemond who had paid him to rob and pistol-whip Tupac.”
As our friends at HipHopWired pointed out, the statute of limitations when it comes to the robbery is expired. Criminals suspected of robbery can be prosecuted up to seven years after the crime. Though, Henchman and and one of his partners in the Tupac shooting have confessed, they did so well after the statute of limitations had expired. So no extra years can be added on to Henchman’s sure-to-be lengthy prison sentence.
I see said the blind man. And now…
This is EbenGregory.com…telling you Tupac had it right all along.
i dont buy it one bit
This has been the word on the streets since it happened to Pac.
Be that as it may, nigga gets hits with two serious charges that they have evidence & witnesses for and he WILLINGLY admits “oh by the way i killed Tupac and biggie and am directly the reason MUTULU and D had to listen to lil zane and other shitty rappers that have cause a riff in hip hops time continuum. the person WHO DID DO IT offered him something to take the fall. Jimmy has already been caught fro something, if he confesses to this it is a closed case. I always imagined that when the new broke there would be celebrating in the streets DEATH OF BI LADEN STYLE. maybe even some rioting.
If it is true this is a lack luster victory for the thing that has become hip hop.
This damned idiot ruined hip hop……Wow. Statue of limitations…..that is bullshit.
Damn….when they put this n-word in the bing, he’s gonna be a “Queen” for quite a few days….
so this is the man responsible ms wallace and ms shakur. the man who caused a rift and fostered an incident that destroyed two lives and dragged down an entire culture.not the cia not the fbi but a clown who walked around till this day with impunity. SMMFH
