Just finished watching the Rayful story by Troy Reed. So why did Ray snitch? He already was serving a life sentence. He was 15 years in and all of sudden duke started to cooperate. Couldn't been cuz of his moms or his sister cuz if that was the case he would of started telling immediately after his mom's got sentenced. According to the documentary it's a mystery and no one really knows. Not even his crew really knows.
So why did Rayful Edmonds turn informant?

Edmond continued to deal within prison, and began laundering cash through a girlfriend. The police started wiretapping his calls to gain evidence. But Rayful had created a special Philadelphia pig latin code to speak with dealers, which required a translator to decode. Confronted by police with this new evidence, Edmond struck a deal with law enforcement. He won his mother's early release by becoming a government informant. Since then, he has been placed in the prison's witness protection program.
Rayful Edmond
Edmond's two close friends ratted him out. One of them being a white woman named Alta Rae Zanville. No one could understand their friendship/relationship because Edmond was 23 and she was 48. He paid her in cocaine which enabled her to start her own business. She accumulated a Porsche, several minks, a beautiful house and a Mercedes. For her cooperation, the government didn't seize any of her property or jewels and granted her full immunity although they had arrested her earlier that week with several kilo's of cocaine in her possession. She was even paid $12,000 by the government and when the trial was over, they even paid her relocation expenses and gave her a new identity. Meanwhile, Edmonds other friend, a black male, who ratted him out, didn't get a sweetheart deal like Zanville. Instead, he was taken into custody and served a reduced sentence.
Edmond was found guilty and sentenced to life without parole.
Behind bars, between 1990-1994, Edmond continued to broker deals for the Medellin cartel until he was busted and sentenced to an additional 30 years.
Edmond turned government informant to reduce the sentence of his mother, who was also arrested. His information led to his mother's early release and several drug arrests.
