A Brooklyn inmate has confessed to shooting rap star Tupac Shakur.
Dexter Isaac, an associate of Rap Mogul James "Jimmy Henchman" Richmond, claims he shot Tupac at Quad Studios in Manhattan 17 years ago.
According to a statement he gave to AllHipHop.com, Isaac says he was paid $2,500 by Richmond to shoot the West Coast rap icon.
"In 1994, James Rosemond hired me to rob 2Pac Shakur at hte Quad Studio. He gave me $2,500, plus all the jewelry I took, except for one ring, which he wanted for himself. It was the biggest of the two diamond rings that we took. He said he wanted to put the stone in a new setting for his girlfriend at the time, Synthia Ried. I still have as proof the chain that we took that night in the robbery."
Isaac even implies Sean "Puffy" Combs knew about the plan all along.
The Quad Studios robbery and shooting occurred less than two years before Tupac was murdered on Sept. 7, 1996.
Isaac is currently serving a life sentence for unrelated crimes at MDC Brooklyn.
Rosemond is CEO of Czar Entertainment who manages performer such as The Game and Sean Kingston.
According to the Smoking Gun, Rosemond is currently a fugitive from justice; he's wanted by the DEA and federal marshals in connection with his alleged leadership of a cocaine trafficking ring.
