  1. Inside job Mi rass! dis a greed…. from yuh reach 10 million, f___k it 5 million dem coulda chill. So now yuh want all yuh lose all

    1. The Feds were after him from 2010 and they couldn’t get anything to stick. They went after him recently due to wiretap from a smuggling ring in Tennessee. So, no it any nothing to do with inside job and agree, more to do with greed. He had enough money to last a lifetime, yet he had to make one more bucket.

      Wouldn’t be surprised if he has more loot in Cuba.
