Diddy faces new scrutiny over ties to Tupac's murder
Forensic analyst Sheryl McCollum believes that Diddy is connected to the murder of Tupac and the shooting that occurred two years before the rapper's death.
Last month, Diddy was arrested. The primary charges against the rapper include various offences.
Although the indictment against Diddy is already "impressive," more shocking details of his activities are continually emerging, and the number of potential victims is steadily increasing.
There are also numerous somewhat implausible theories suggesting that the well-known producer is linked to the deaths of several artists.
Is Diddy responsible for Tupac's death? A person who worked on the case speaks out
In international media, amidst discussions of Diddy's misdemeanours, the figure of Tupac Shakur emerges. This case, however, involves more than just internet speculation. Investigators who have been dealing with the artist's premature death over the years are also interested. Forensic analyst Sheryl McCollum believes Combs is connected both to the murder of the rapper who died in 1996 and the shooting in 1994.
This whole thing to me started in 1994 — the first time Tupac is shot - said the woman who worked on Shakur's death, on Friday, on NewsNation.
The creator of the hit "All Eyez On Me" was shot five times during a robbery at New York's Quad Records on Times Square in 1994. At the same time, Diddy and his entourage of about 40 people were in the studio. Shakur was hospitalised and left merely several hours after surgery, fearing for his life. He blamed his East Coast rivals - Combs and Notorious B.I.G. for ordering the attack.
You ain’t gotta shoot somebody five times to take their jewellery and their money. Sean ‘Puffy’ Combs and his entourage of 40? Unharmed. Unthreatened. How does that make sense to anybody that one person is going to be robbed and not the other 40? Who would have had more money and jewellery? Forty - McCollum points out.
This is what Tupac said about Diddy
Nobody approached me. I noticed that nobody would look at me - recalled Tupac in 1995 in "Vibe" magazine, adding:
Puffy was standing back too. I knew Puffy. He knew how much stuff I had done for Biggie before he came out.
The investigator points to details of Tupac's death
The rapper died two years later. The shooting happened on the street. The artist, sitting in a BMW, was shot at 12 times, five of which hit him. Since the car stopped at a red light and pedestrians were on all sides, it prevented Tupac from escaping.
He’s trapped in an elevator, and then he’s trapped in a car. There is literally nowhere to run - the investigator observes.
Ironically, neither of those incidents has any video footage - she continues. This suggests that someone close to him was aware of his location that day and time. It, according to her, narrows down the potential suspect pool as well.
Is Tupac's family preparing a lawsuit against Diddy?
McCollum recalled that Shakur's family is considering filing a lawsuit against Combs. "Page Six" reported some time ago that the rapper's family hired lawyer Alex Spiro, who has worked for Elon Musk and Megan Thee Stallion, to investigate the matter.
People from Diddy's past are coming forward and providing info - a source disclosed to the tabloid.
