UPDATE: L.A. Times releases new evidence in 1994 2Pac Shooting; Links to Jam Master Jay Murder

Posted by Juan

This is some serious ish.

This morning the LA Times published the finding of investigative reporter, Chuck Philips that alleges B.I.G. and Sean Combs (Puff) knew that Tupac Shakur was to be set up in the 1994 Quad Studios shooting in Times Square. (This of course is the first time Tupac was shot and not the drive by shooting in Las Vegas which would eventually take his life.) Phillips’ describes the shooting as “a source of fascination and frustration to law officials and fans.” There is no evidence the Bad Boy duo knew that Pac would be shot.Â But Pac always insisted that friends of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs were behind the incident and the new info uncovered by Phillips supports his claims.

The Times report is extensive and indicates that Phillips has been at this for some time.Â They’ve publisedÂ a pdf file of an FBI informantâ€™s testimony who has corroborated all of his findings.Â There is also an interactive timeline that takes you from the shooting until incidnets that have occured very recently including the murder of Jason “Jam Master Jay” Mizell.Â Â The Times will host a live chat tomorrow at 1:00 p.m. where visitors can ask him questions about the report.

WHOA!!!! that’s crazy. Talk about he plot thickening.Â We finally have some clearer insight into the deaths of 2Pac and JMJ although we already had a pretty good idea about B.I.G.’s murder. Be sure to check out the full report at www.latimes.com/tupac which includes the timeline, pdf and links to relevant stories written by the publication regarding the case over the years.Â Keep it locked here for more reaction and analysis.

This is big. Is it me or is Diddy involved with everything bad that among famous people. Next thing you know we’ll hear Diddy was the man responsible for JFK getting shot.

Diddy does have an aura of death and destruction around him. It’s the price tag of selling your soul for riches which puff did a long time ago
