First off, Reggie "going on record" saying she's not 100% sure if Poochie killed him is redundant if she acknowledged in her testimony that she wasn't there the moment Biggie was shot in the first place. This isn't some unknown piece of information. What other reason would you have for bringing this up if it weren't to attempt to discredit the theory? This grand revelation from Reggie you trotted out is in her damn statement.
If you didn't bring it up to discredit the theory, what purpose does it serve?
For the umpteenth time, how can what Teresa Swann says be a reason for your doubting the Poochie theory if her testimony is the primary form of corroboration for it? THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. Not unless you cherry pick specific parts of what she claims occurred. She says she wasn't there the moment Big was shot. But she also says that Suge had her arrange for her to pay Poochie to shoot Biggie himself. This is the part you keep conveniently leaving out when you attempt to use her as a source of info to discredit the source of the damn info in the first place, lol. If you don't believe Poochie killed Biggie, COOL. But you cannot, and let me type it in caps for people in the nosebleed sections, CANNOT USE HER OWN TESTIMONY AS A SOURCE OF WHY YOU HAVE DOUBTS ABOUT SAID THEORY IF SHE IS THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF CORROBORATION FOR THE THEORY IN THE FIRST PLACE. That makes absolutely no goddamn sense what so fukking ever. That's literally using the confession of person confessing to a crime as the reason the confession is untrue.
There are reasons you can cite for why you choose not to believe Poochie killed Biggie. Teresa Swann, however, ain't one of them brother.
And a "witness, weapon, alibi"?
For one, an alibi is a defense my man. Why would someone accusing Poochie of murder provide a defense for why he didn't commit what they're accusing him of?
Second, why are you demanding a burden of proof that you refuse to hold your own theory to? No weapon or witness exists for the Amir Muhammad theory either, yet that doesn't stop you from believing it. Having said that, there IS corroborating evidence for the Poochie theory. It is not as strong as a sworn statement offering immunity from participation in the crime (Teresa Swann), but it is additional evidence that helps support it. They didn't just pull Poochie and Teresa Swan's name out of thin air (well, technically they did for her because that's an alias,
, but I digress....). They had intercepted jailhouse letters from the co-defendant of one of Suge's/Death Row's muscle that claimed Poochie was the killer. They had evidence that Poochie had committed murder and crimes for Suge before Biggie was even killed, and they have Reggie Wright and a Death Row manager corroborating a request from Suge to obtain cash in the amount of money that Teresa claims was paid to kill Biggie.
Now, you can choose to take issue with those if you choose, which again, is fine. But to say that nothing else exists to support a theory suggesting Poochie was the killer outside of Teresa Swann saying so is simply untrue. It exists, you just choose not to find it credible.
Why is it a lie? Eugene Deal was questioned on three separate occasions by detectives working Biggie's murder before Kading and his team were even assigned the case. A recording or transcript of the interview that Kelly Cooper was apart of has never even been released, so I don't know how you know what Cooper said during this exchange. I suspect you're getting this from Eugene Deal, who changes stories like I change socks
. The only thing that is definitively known from that interview to the general public is that he identified someone who was NOT Amir Muhammad. Kading says that when he called Gene after he retired and questioned Gene in the presence of an LA Weekly reporter, Gene said that he misspoke and meant to say to police that the guy "looks like" the guy who came up to him. Which would mean that he definitively identified to police a person who was not Amir Muhammad and looked nothing like him if he claimed to Kading that he "misspoke" during the initial detective interview. The only way to put this disagreement on what he said to bed once and for all is to hear the actual interview.
Even when, or if that eventually happens, it's still somewhat of a moot point. Eugene said out his own mouth to police that he couldn't see the shooter from where he was (a snippet of him saying this is played in Murder Rap. Which was obvious if he was in the car ahead of Biggie's while Big's car is at the light getting shot up.)
Playing fast and loose with the facts again I see. "A year later when
"THEY" followed up?? No big homie, "they" here isn't the police. Nice try though. When Eugene Deal identifies Amir Muhammad as the shooter, he does it in a documentary to the director of the documentary. Big difference between telling the cops one thing years earlier and telling Joe Schmoe the movie director something different years later. I salute your commitment to keeping the waters nice and muddy with misinformation though.
Breh, it all makes sense now. You have absolutely no idea what the fukk you're talking about!
Gene doesn't say ANY of that on the 911 call!!! The only thing on the 911 call regarding the shooter's description is "yo, dude look like he was Muslim, kid. He was dressed like that". Nothing else specific about what he was wearing or what he looked like.
And you're combining two separate quotes given on two separate occasions of Gene Deal anyway. The description he gave of what the guy who came up to his car was wearing was during a police interview weeks after Biggie was killed. And the description where he gives this apparent facial description of him was in the Biggie and Tupac documentary YEARS after Biggie was killed.. The police notes from that same interview said that Gene heard, "from Paul, who was told from Lil Cease, that the shooter was a Muslim." So according to the police, Gene doesn't even hear this info from Cease direct, and doesn't even relay this third-hand information connecting who approached him as supposedly being the shooter to police until weeks after Biggie is killed. And doesn't give a facial description of him until years after in a documentary, yet in your mind that equates to Gene relaying this information "seconds after the shooting"???
