Lawyer: My client did not hire to shoot Tupac Shakur
Unsolved murder mystery heats back up on rapper's 40th birthday
Tupac Shakur
NEW YORK (AP) — The lawyer for a hip-hop mogul accused in an online post of orchestrating a plot to rob rapper Tupac Shakur in the mid-1990s says the claims are outrageous and false.
Attorney Jeffrey Lichtman said Thursday his client James Rosemond did not hire anyone to rob and shoot Shakur.
The accusations about the 1994 robbery and shooting were posted online at allhiphop.com and are attributed to Dexter Isaac, who says he was hired by Rosemond. Isaac is serving a life sentence in an unrelated murder-for-hire-case. Rosemond is wanted by federal authorities on drug charges.
Shakur was killed in 1996 in an unsolved slaying.

December 13, 2012 at 7:30PM EST Reply to CommentIf Tupac is alive and did an interview, he would've done it in a way in which he would've been photographed. He didn't have his picture taken because it is hard for a DEAD MAN TO HAVE HIS PICTURE TAKEN. Enough already! They're both deceased. Let their families move on, and by the way, a lot of you too should move on. Go love on your kids or do something positive instead of looking like fools! My name is Big Vince, and I approve of this message.
TUPAC I am dead!!
