[quote]A task force made up of local and federal law enforcement agencies is actively pursuing leads into the 1997 slaying of hip hop artist Christopher Wallace, better known as Biggie Smalls or Notorious B.I.G., according to two sources familiar with the investigation. According to one law enforcement source, the investigation into the 13-year-old unsolved case was "reinvigorated" months ago as a result of new information, but the source would not elaborate further because of the ongoing investigation that includes the Los Angeles Police Department, L.A. County District Attorney's Office and the FBI. On March 9, 1997, Wallace, 24, was shot and killed while riding in a Suburban that was driving away from a music industry party at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. Los Angeles police said a lone gunman in a Chevy Impala pulled alongside the Suburban and opened fire on Wallace, who was in the passenger seat. Witnesses described the suspect as being an African-American man wearing a suit and bow tie. The main theory behind shooting was payback in a so-called rap war between East and West Coast hip hop artists and their record companies- Bad Boy Entertainment in New York, which represented Wallace, and Death Row Records, headed by Marion "Suge" Knight, in Los Angeles. Six months earlier in Las Vegas, a gunman opened fire on a car driven by Knight, killing one of his top artists Tupac Shakur. That murder remains unsolved also. "East Coast was Biggie, West Coast was Tupac," Wallace's mother Voletta Wallace told a filmmaker in the 2002 documentary "Biggie and Tupac." "Come on now, you're messing with lives here and that's exactly what happened. Two lives were lost as a result of what? Stupidity?" Voletta Wallace told the filmmaker. Retired Los Angeles Police Detective Russell Poole, who worked on the Wallace case, told CNN that he believes Knight was behind the murder, even though the Death Row Records' boss was serving time on a probation violation at the time. "Suge Knight ordered the hit," Poole said, adding that he believes it was arranged by Reggie Wright Jr., who headed security for Death Row Records. Reggie Wright Jr. told CNN he had nothing to do with the murder, and Knight has repeatedly said he had nothing to do with the crime. Poole said he retired early from the LAPD, in part, because he was thwarted in following leads in the Wallace case involving police officers, some of whom worked off-duty for Death Row Records.[/quote] [img]http://thecoolmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/notorious-big.jpg[/img] We love you Biggie!

I hope they find out who did it, but it's likely that the whole case is dead by now, drive by shootings happen all the time and never get solved.
Whoa. I wonder what they found out :ohdear: [editline]10th January 2011[/editline] Also, for anyone who doesn't know who Suge Knight is, he once cut a deal with Vanilla Ice by busting into his hotel room and holding him off a balcony by his ankles until he gave in.
And cue TH89. [editline]10th January 2011[/editline] It was all a dream. [editline]10th January 2011[/editline] I used to read Word Up magazine.

They must have found something big to reopen the case like this. No pun intended.

I'm on the Tupac team.
I don't think they're going to find out who did it, it's been too long. [editline]10th January 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Canned Induvidual;27335800]I'm on the Tupac team.[/QUOTE] I like both of them.
what if it turns out tupac never died, and then he didnt manage to kill biggie either
P-Diddy set Biggie up. P-Diddy was going to be forever known as Biggie's right hand man.. nothing better. I mean it was quite obvious when the light was yellow and instead of stopping the car with P-Diddy kept going and left Biggie stuck at the red light. Just my little conspiracy theory if you put it that way.
I hope they do find out who killed him :unsmith:
Diddy did it
i think it was the government
It was the ghost of Tupac
