	Murder Inc. Leader Convicted of 19 Murders Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

Not often does justice prevail in DC, but this is an extraordinary outcome.

Murder Inc. was a late 80s, early 90s gang. It began with heroine, then moved on to crack and MJ. Finally, they tried hanging their shingle out as hitmen.

Its leader convicted of 19 murders and 5 others convicted of several. 31 separate murders in all.

Execution, or on the taxpayer's tab for life?

Sentencing hasn't been handed down, but I think at least 2 are eligible for execution.

Sorry to threadjack, but isn't an execution actually more expensive than life prison because of all the legalistic "safety" procedures and appeals etc.?

Normally, yes. In this instance, these boys are probably on the fast track, so probably no.

They stole the name of an earlier Jewish hitman gang? How lame.

The original Murder, Inc. was the Syndicate internal enforcement arm in the 1930's and 40's. Many of its original members were Jewish gangsters from Brooklyn.

Well, I'm not too surprised.

I thought this was gonna be about Irv Gotti, and I was well surprised. Still, The Neptunes and Timbaland are well more talented so they deserve all the chart positions they'd get if Murder Inc. broke down as a commercial force.

Aroo? I know about the Neptunes and especially Timbaland. Didn't know there were a group of producers calling themselves Murder, Inc.

It's more of a record company/teams of producers, under the supervision of Irv Gotti and Ja Rule. In terms of commercial volume, they're probably the biggest in the business.

http://www.murderincrecords.com/ is a singularly crap site.

I thought that it was a mafia gang?

Yeah, I also thought Murder Inc. was some kind of organisation that gave mafia their services quite often, but not being part of the real cosa nostra itself.. but often considered as part of mafia. I also remember Jewish hitman gang, but it had a different name?
Or am I mixing up Murder Inc and The Purple Gang?
