An arrest has been made a month after the murder of Mazaradi Fox.
The rapper and ally of 50 Cent was gunned down in January and died on the scene in a driveway in New York. According to the Daily News, Jamal Scott was arrested and charged with second-degree murder, four counts of attempted murder and felony assault early Tuesday afternoon.
Scott's desire to kill Fox may have been to avenge his brother's death in 1998. Allegedly, Fox was involved in his brother's murder which led to his own death. According to reports, Scott was with his brother when he was shot and killed by Fox and another man in Jamaica, Queens in July 1998. Fox was never tried in the shooting, but did serve time for criminal possession of a weapon. Fox was freed in 2005 but then back in prison in 2011 for attempted assault. He was freed once again just two weeks before he died.
Fox's girlfriend spoke to reporters and was shocked that a 16 year beef led to Fox's death. "[The shooting] was almost 16 years ago," she said. "Jamal didn't pull the trigger. He didn't shoot him. He just happened to be there when it happened. Killing Mazaradi, that's not going to bring your brother back."
Prior to his release, Fox talked about getting back in the rap game.
