Updated lack of progress reported in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• The New York Daily News reported the latest regarding Busta Rhymes’ slain bodyguard. Nearly a year ago, Israel Ramirez was shot during a music video production. Although numerous people were present, including Rhymes, no one is talking to police. “[Rhymes is] not talking,” said a police source. “He doesn’t want to lose money by getting the reputation for talking to cops, so a killer remains free.” The victim’s sister said, “We’re still very much grieving, but we’re not holding Busta Rhymes responsible. … We’re hoping that somebody will eventually come forward and say something to the police to help bring this lowlife to justice.” Rappers like to rhyme about murder, but talking is another story.
• The Los Angeles Times reported the latest regarding the wrongful-death lawsuit filed by the family of slain rapper Biggie Smalls against the city of Los Angeles. The family charges a rogue LAPD detective helped organize the murder. The lawyer representing the family said, “There are documents that we have looked at in the LAPD file that support our theory. The documents indicate that [LAPD detective] David Mack killed Christopher Wallace.” If it’s tough getting rappers to talk with cops about murders, imagine trying to persuade cops to talk with cops.

1. The David Mack story is not about rogue LAPD cops, but the product of Affirmative Action quotas that forced the LAPD to accept cops based on race, not virtue, talent, or ethics.
2. Mack was not a detective.
3. Mack was not the only bad hire - nor is he the last. More David Mack remain on the LAPD.
sorry, we were just providing a condensed blurb based on la times article, which identified mack as an lapd detective. no doubt the actual event is filled with inaccuracies and lies.
