One Y ear Later It’s been 12 m onths since Christopher W allace, a/k/a The N otorious B I G. w as gunned down in Los Angeles. In the spe cial three-part ‘‘Special Report: the Notorious B.I.G. One Year Later,” VIBE investigates the in vestigation into B iggie’s murder, offers a revealing look inside the man ’ s art, and visits with his grie v- ing mother in the M arch issue, hitting the newsstands February 17. The three-part special report includes: “W ho Shot Y a?,” by Angel Gonzalez, page 96 A year after B iggie’s killing, the police still haven’t m ade an arrest, and d on’t seem likely to any time soon. W hy are the cops clueless? As some wonder openly if the police really w ant to solve the crim e, rum ors im plicating D eath Row R ecords and the Southside Crips continue to cir culate. M eanwhile, the killers re main free. According to an LA PD affida vit dated September, 1996, Scan “Puffy” Com bs and Biggie em ployed Southside Crips for secu rity. It also says that D eath Row Records CEO M arion "S uge” Knight and the label are affiliated w ith the M ob P iru B loods. Com bs, who denies the charges says, “I would never use people who did not have a security back ground. W henever I was in Los Angeles, I hired off-duty police o ffic e rs an d bound security . Being a young black celebrity you have thousands of acquaintances. But as far as him (Zip, a Harlem drug dealer) intro ducing me to Crips, I ca n ’t say that [happened]. But I ca n ’t say thatdidn’thappend neither. Ican ’t say who I’ve met. It’s not like [all] gang people wear colored rags on their heads."
