HE COULDN'T GET CHARGED FOR 2PAC&BIGGIE's MURDER BUT HE'S BEEN CHARGED FOR THE MURDER OF 50CENTS' FRIEND!



Friday, 22nd June, 2012 officials in Manhattan said James Rosemond, was being charged with arranging the murder of an associate of the rapper 50 Cent.

James Rosemond


They called him Jimmy Henchman — the man with the Teflon reputation, tied for years to the feud that led to the murders of two legends of the hip-hop world...2PAC and NOTORIOUS BIG. 

His indictment announced on Friday, Mr. Rosemond, 47, was charged with conspiring with five other men to kill 50 cent's associate, Lowell Fletcher, in 2009.

This was just three weeks after Mr. Rosemond was convicted of running a multimillion-dollar cocaine ring.
On June 5, he was convicted in Federal District Court in Brooklyn of running an operation that sold millions of dollars’ worth of cocaine, often transporting it across the country in cases designed for musical equipment.

According to Raymond W. Kelly, the New York police commissioner, said in a statement.

“This has not been a good month for Jimmy the Henchman,”  He said the murder of Mr. Fletcher had been retaliation for an assault on Mr. Rosemond’s son.

Mr. Rosemond, who ran a management company, Czar Entertainment has denied involvement in the bitter feud that led to the shootings that led to the death of 2PAC and NOTORIOUS BIG.

Preet Bharara, the United States attorney in Manhattan, said Mr. Rosemond and the five other defendants had “operated like a mini-gang, allegedly committing a revenge killing, and a host of drug and firearms offenses.”

Though, a seventh man was also charged with firearms and narcotics offenses but not murder.

Mr. Fletcher was shot to death on the evening of Sept. 27, 2009, near Jerome and Mount Eden Avenues in the Mount Eden neighborhood of the Bronx.

Mr. Rosemond and another man hired at least two of the defendants to kill Mr. Fletcher in exchange for drugs, according to the indictment in United States District Court in Manhattan.

Mr. Rosemond is in federal custody for drug trafficking. Nineteen people have been convicted on drug-trafficking and money-laundering charges as a result of the investigation into Mr. Rosemond’s activities.

The deaths of the two great rappers might not have nailed him, but a simple act of revenge did.
