The Jury Is Still Out On Murder Inc.
I just got word that not only is the jury still deliberating the Murder Inc. case, but they are asking for more docs, and the foreman who is supervising the jury hinted that the verdict "could go either way."
OK, now the drama begins. We all knew Diddy would beat his old case, and that Lil Kim would take a hit on hers. But this case really does feel like it could swing in any direction.
I've pointed out all the holes in the prosecution's evidence, however the defense didn't do much of a job in changing the negative perception the jury may have had of Irv and Chris Lorenzo. Facts are supposed to rule, but we all know juries can be emotional and forget about reasonable doubt.

The Stars Come Out For Murder Inc.
At yesterday's closing arguments it looked more like an awards show than a federal trial. There were cameos from Jay-Z, Dame Dash, Ja Rule and Ashanti, J.

Is the Judge Biased Against Murder Inc?
Yesterday the Murder Inc. trial's defense team was denied use of their "brand new" evidence. Read all the details on SOHH proper.
One statement by the judge struck me. Peep:
"This murderer and druglord was admittedly involved with your client," Judge Korman sternly said to Shargel of Supreme as he pounded his hand against the podium. "That's a fact."
As I've said many times, Irv and Chris chose to present themselves as gangstas, and they have to deal with those consequences. However, the law is supposed to applied fairly to everyone, and no man should be counted guilty by association.
