TL;DR Summary

The trial has begun for two men accused of killing Run-DMC's Jam Master Jay over 20 years ago, with prosecutors arguing that the defendants were motivated by "greed and revenge" after being cut out of a lucrative cocaine deal. The men, Karl Jordan Jr. and Ronald Washington, have pleaded not guilty. Prosecutors claim that eyewitnesses and confessions will support their case, while defense lawyers argue that the evidence is weak and that the true killer remains unknown. If convicted, the defendants face at least 20 years in prison.
