Diddy dit it?

Last week report in The L.A Times raised questions about the involvement of Sean "Diddy" Combs in the 1994 attack on Tupac Shakur at a New York recording studio, The Quad. The Legendary rapper was beaten, robbed, shot and left for dead but he survived from his wounds and injuries. Coincidently, The Notorious BIG, Puff Daddy (his name at the time) and their crew were also in the same building and denied being involved. But Pac claimed that same night that he was set up by Bad Boys. Based on those allegations an L.A Times reporter reopened the investigation and did some digging of his own. He claimed to have found the three men responsible for the attack, all in jail serving time for unrelated crimes. Two of them talk to the reporter and snitched that Biggie and Diddy were aware that the attack was about to happen and that it was orchestrated by The Game current manager Jimmy "Henchmen" Rosemond and James Sabatino (an Italian-American promoter and con man)as retaliation to Tupac for refusing to do business with Bad Boys Records and disrespecting them.
This is no news to the FBI since all the informants were interviewed back in 2002 and corroborated the story, however Diddy, Henchmen and Sabatino were never questioned. They all denied the allegations and are considering legal actions against the newspaper. The sad story is that this event might have started the whole West Coast vs. East Coast war and and at the end hip hop lost two great talents.
Up until this day both murders of Biggie and Tupac are unsolved, and now Diddy's life is being threatened by L.A Gangbangers since he decided to move to California in pursuit of an acting career.
