A New B.I.G. Probe
It's hip-hop's version of the Kennedy assassination.
Nine years since the Notorious B.I.G. was killed in a drive-by shooting, the Los Angeles Police Department announced Monday the formation of a new six-member task force looking for fresh clues that might finally solve the murder of one of rap's biggest stars.
LAPD Chief William J. Bratton launched the new investigation in the wake of last summer's mistrial in a wrongful death lawsuit brought by the relatives of Biggie, whose real name was Christopher Wallace, against the City of Angels accusing the department of covering up rogue police officer's involvement in his shooting.
