G-Unit front man 50 Cent may have been the target of an assassination plot by several associates of Murder INC.
In an affidavit released by website The Smoking Gun, evidence is laid out against Chris Gotti and Fred “Supreme” McGriff. McGriff was said to have been plotting to kill the rapper in retaliation over some rap lyrics.
“The investigation has uncovered a conspiracy involving McGriff and others to murder a rap artist who has released songs containing lyrics regarding McGriff’s criminal activities,” states part of the affidavit, reprinted on MTV.com. “The rap artist was shot in 2000, survived and thereafter refused to cooperate with the law enforcement regarding the shooting. Messages transmitted over the Murder Inc. pager indicate that McGriff is involved in an ongoing plot to kill this rap artist and that he communicates with Murder Inc. employees concerning the target.”
The song in question, “Ghetto Koran” was released in 2000 and supposedly gives damning information on McGriff’s criminal past.
