Witness: Mike Tyson put up 'hit' money on gang members

NEW YORK -- Mike Tyson put up $50,000 for a proposed "hit" on gang members suspected of killing his bodyguard in 2000, a government witness testified.

The allegation was made Thursday by Dwayne Meyers, a former member of the Cash Money Brothers gang. Meyers testified at the trial of Abubakr Raheem, who's accused of driving a getaway car after turf-war killings.

Meyers claimed the former heavyweight champion put up the money to retaliate for the June 2000 slaying of his close friend and former bodyguard, Darryl "Homicide" Baum. The alleged contract was never carried out.

Tyson's attorney was traveling Friday and could not immediately be reached for comment.

Ah,thanks I must have missed that one.

I'd imagine the statute of limitations on that would have expired by now.

In most states, statute of limitations on "Conspiracy to Commit Murder" is three years.

They were saying on the radio this morning that he was in the airport with his (other) kid and the paparazzi were all over him. Given what he's lost, I'm guessing he was a little protective and angry.

 

[NFBuck]

A paparazzi is the last person on the planet I'll have any compassion for. Scum of the earth. Hopefully Tyson caved his face in.
