There are informed people who disagree about Diddy’s Pac involvement. Jeff Pearlman just wrote a book about PAC and is very sure it was much simpler than a planned Diddy hit.
Ya there is a lot of smoke with Biggie as well. The whole story is insane tbh and the sex stuff is really not the insane part even though that is pretty out there as well.
Diddy’s whole crew rented cars and drove for 3 days so they could take guns including a bunch of know gang members one of who admitted under oath that he was involved in it. Add in the fact the two crews just had a massive altercation after the Tyson fight and Diddy’s side got the worst of it. Then you have the fact Diddy has multiple people who have gone under oath saying he either killed someone or was trying to go kill someone and it’s really not far fetched at all.
Lastly and most importantly pretty much everyone around Diddy says he did it. I’m also not sure how Jeff Pearlman of all people could have any idea beyond a guess based on available evidence which is all I’m doing.
I agree that we’re generally guessing, but the Pearlman account rings truer for me. There was a fight and then they shot him. I don’t put a lot of weight on the stuff the gansgter guys say for the camera.

He said it to a FBI agent in a proffer session, it wasn’t for the documentary. He is also under indictment for it with trial scheduled for 2026. Keefe D that is.

All I know is that Eminem and now 50 Cent have both linked Diddy to Pac’s death and I’ve always suspected that came from inside knowledge they got from Dre.

Apparently Sam Campbell had 5 points coming if he just admitted to a betrayal. He refused for a commitment to the bit.
Also why Sam Campbell is in my top 5 of contestants I would like to see for my dream line up.

Can’t believe they didn’t sequester the jury.
Also that line from the Indian juror about two hands clapping, I know I have that heard that phrase several times before in India to blame the victim for getting raped.
Ya that was pretty gross.
A lot of internet predictions have come through the past two episodes.
He doesn’t even mention the Eric Von Zip character when there are a bunch of other people who say Eric Von Zip and Keefe D knew each other.
The show did a very good job of showing how connected Sean was to the New York Crips. I knew that there were some connections from the Kading dramatization USA show, but I never saw that level of detail. It was an exceptional part of the doc. It’s also very believable Sean got in a room with Crips and said a million dollars to whoever kills PAC. Like what did he think would happen if he really did that?

It’s wild to think that Suge Knight was basically the good guy in that entire era/scene. On a relative basis obviously. Treated his artists well, likely did less murders than Diddy and less raping and SAing also.

That was one part the doc got very wrong. Suge was a very very very bad guy to his artists. It was called Death Row for a reason. It was intended to be your last stop. For Dre to get away from him he had to give up basically his entire catalog up to that point and Suge was never letting anything like that happen again. They got away from him basically because he was in prison and the label just wasn’t the same as it was in its mid 90s glory days.
The Pac deal was crazy. He basically just paid his $1 million bail and it looked like maybe two 120k payments to get essentially the most prolific and arguably best rapper in music history. Still, next to Sean, Suge was a good guy because he didn’t interfere with the music and did actually pay his artists vs. not paying them at all. For a better idea of what that time was like, there’s at least some exploration of it in the movie Straight Outta Compton, though it’s still pretty light.
