Isaac, an inmate currently serving life in prison for murder, robbery and more, says he shot Shakur in 1994 after allegedly being given $2,500 dollars by James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond.
“I want to apologize to his family [Tupac Shakur] and for the mistake I did for that sucker [Jimmy Henchman],” Dexter Isaac told AllHipHop.com. “I am trying to clean it up to give [Tupac and Biggie's] mothers some closure.”
Isaac told the online website about his involvement in Shakur’s shooting after Jimmy Henchman identified him in a statement, relating to Henchman’s indictment for dealing cocaine.
“If the government is relying on informants like Winston ‘Winnie’ Harris, a convicted drug dealer and Jamaican deportee, who came to me and motioned via hand signal that he was forced to wear a wire and begged me to skip town or Dexter Isaac who is serving life in prison plus 30 years, then I’m sure I will not be offered a fair trial,” Henchman told AllHipHop.com in May of 2011.
The November 30, 1994 shooting jump-started a sordid dispute that resulted in the killings of both Tupac Shakur and Notorious B.I.G., who were heavily part of the East Coast/West Coast hip-hop music feud.
Shakur died after sustaining gunshot wounds on September 7, 1996 and B.I.G was shot dead the following year on March 9, 1997.
*Well well...look what this whole situation has come to. This is sick, dirty, low down, and not funny. I don't know whether to fall a sleep or hit the delete button. However since we're here and we've read it, here's our two cents.
This isn't a coincidence that someone is admitting to shooting Shakur. I'm pretty sure the gov't have known about this for quite some time, but of course didn't see fit for to tell the people who are fans of Shakur. It seems that if there's bigger fish to fry, then cases like the so-called unsovled death of Shakur and B.I.G. don't stand a chance. Now that, this guy has come out seeking his "FIFTEEN MINUTES OF FAME", everyone tom, dick and harry will be reporting on it.
Such stupidity!
Tupac was and forever will be a rap icon. He was loved by his fans and his family. What the mainstream media doesn't get is that, he was smart and had a lot of talent. Even if he had gang banging tendencies, it still doesn't mean he deserved to be shot and killed. He was apart the human race just like everyone else.
All in all, maybe this is a good thing for this case to resurface, given it's been a so-called unsolved case for many years. It just goes to show, that when there's bigger fish to fry everything else is dead to the gov't including Tupac.*
