In his upcoming book Murder Rap, due October 4th, former LAPD Homicide Detective Greg Kading claims that the police department has “extensive tapes and documents” with confessions from those involved in the murders of Tupac Shakur and Notorious B.I.G.

According to LA Weekly, Kading was cut from the case right when he was approaching closing the file. An informant told Kading that he was offered $1 million to kill Tupac and Suge Knight, and that Sean “Diddy” Combs commissioned ‘Pac’s murder in September 1996.

Additionally, Suge Knight’s baby’s mother, identified as Theresa Swann, reveals that the former Death Row Records kingpin gave her the money to pay gang member Wardell “Poochie” Fouse to kill Biggie.

Combs responded to the claims via email, stating, “This story is pure fiction and completely ridiculous.”
