A third man was charged Tuesday with the 2002 murder of Run-DMC's Jam Master Jay.
Jam Master Jay Death: 2 Indicted In 2002 Shooting Death Of Pioneering Rap Group Run-DMC's DJ
An email seeking comment was sent to Bryant's attorney. Bryant, from Queens, was in custody already on unrelated federal drug charges. At the time the other two men were indicted, authorities said Jay's death involved a drug deal gone bad. In a letter filed with the court on Tuesday, prosecutors said Bryant and the two other men entered the building that evening, and then fled after the shooting. They said Bryant was seen going into the building, and his DNA was recovered at the scene.
Jay was in Run-DMC with Joseph"Run" Simmons and Darryl"DMC" McDaniel in the early 1980s. The group helped bring hip-hop music into the mainstream. Run DMC's hits include"King of Rock,""It's Tricky" and a remake of Aerosmith's"Walk This Way." For years, Jay's death lingered as a cold case, with witnesses reluctant to speak up despite reward money being offered.© 2023 The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.
